I was loading boards into truck and elbow pain and burning from tennis elbow. I kept loading boards until it was full anyway. My elbow hurt really bad all evening, now I have large bruise looking spot on lower part of elbow. could it be a busted blood vessel. I didn't hit it on anything.

go for physiotherapy treatment, take ultrasound treatment for 8 minute for 8 days on elbow with pain reliever ointment.it will give micromassage effect in elbow and promote healing.

take short wave diathermy for 15 min for 10 days. it will increase blood circulation at elbow and promote healing

wear tennis elbow belt to prevent rotational movement at elbow which will lead to further damage.
