What Indicates Immediate Pain In Muscle Between Elbow And Wrist After Playing Tennis?
While playing tennis yesterday I hit an overhead shot and immediately felt pain in the muscle between my elbow and wrist. The muscle on the top outside part of my right arm. It is now a bump and very tender to the touch. Could I have pulled a muscle or could a ligament be twisted? Or what the heck did I do? Thank you so very much.

you pulled your muscle,need to give rest to your hand.apply ice 5/7 times a day with each time being roughly 10 min and if possible were compression bandage to avoid movements and rest to hand.also stop playing tennis till the pain and swelling subsides
