What Could Be The Reasons For Having Sore And Itchy Elbow And Having Warm Feeling After Touching?
I have had a very sore ( if I bump it I go thru the roof type sore) elbow that is swollen, red, warm to the touch and sometimes itchy elbow. Along with this I have not been feeling up to par. Any ideas . This has been about 4 days now. My e mail is YYYY@YYYY . Thank you
Hi, Theae symptoms suggest an infection of the elbow joint. I suggest you see your doctor or go to the ER for a course of antibiotics as a matter of urgency. Regards, Dr K A Pottinger, MBCHB. FRCA.
