What Causes A Recurring Sore Lump On My Elbow With Itchiness?

Thanks...I had an experience about 3 years ago when my outer right elbow started to itch suddenly and intensely....At the same time I noticed a swelling like tennis elbow around it....It finally went away, but the swelling has stayed...One Dr. thought the swelling was bursitis....But at that time the itching wasn t present...Every once in a while I get the itching and it is intense and usually accompanied by a sore.......The sore is in the center of a red spot which is in the middle of the swollen lump....It comes and goes....I have it now.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Yes it's tennis elbow and needs rest
As it's chronic of long standing duration you may need an Inj. Kenacort mixed with local anaesthetic drug, so see an orthopaedic surgeon and get relief, needs injection and you should recover in a week
