What Does Pain In The Right Elbow Indicate?

Today, January 19, I noticed pain on the inside of my right arm below the bend of the elbow. I did about a week ago, injure my right elbow. I scrapped it on the door, making a sore. Close to my elbow, but not on the inside. Could it be caused by checking my blood pressure on the right side? I don’t recall any other injures yo my arm. It is a stinging pain on the inside of my right arm, just down from the bend of the arm.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It might be due to mild contusion or sprain. No need to worry. You can take simple analgesics like Ibuprofen or Diclofenac for pain.
Apply ice packs over the affected elbow and take bed rest. If pain persist then consult an orthopedic and get evaluated.

Wishing you good health.
Thanks!
