What Is The Pain In My Left Arm Elbow Joint?

For about a week I have had this pain in my arm anatomically my left lateral elbow joint but as of the last three days it now includes my wrist and the posterior of my hand. It feels a little like a tooth ache in my arm and hand. It also sometimes throbs, and I have weakness in my hand due to pain.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic Surgeon.
In my opinion your pain is due to Tennis Elbow in (L) elbow.
I suggest pain killers , and Tennis elbow splint + Precautions like avoiding any work that increases the pain.
If there is no relief in 2-3 weeks time, go for Local Infiltration of Steroid injections.
