Hello,
I have studied your case and I think you might be having RA of elbow and wrist.I would recommend you to show it to rheumatologist and take his opinion. If there is any inflammation then synovectomy can be done. if there is no inflammation then you continue with anti rheumatoid treatment and hot water fomentation.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
