Why Do I Feel Pain And Vibration In My Elbow And Wrist Region?

Hello, I would like to explain a problem with my wrist region as well and my elbow region. It seems that most of the times if lift something, such as weights, I sometimes get a buzzing/ vibrating feeling in my elbow or wrist region. It is somewhat painful. A similiar feeling is when you hit your funny bone.

Hi,

Those tiny, uncontrollable spasms are called muscle fasciculations.

It sounds scary, but in most cases, they’re nothing to worry about. These spasms are often caused by an imbalance of electrolytes in your muscle fibers as they fatigue.

So drink plenty of fluids and fruit juices.

Spasms that last a long time or occur on a regular basis may be a sign of kidney or thyroid dysfunction, fibromyalgia, or other neuromuscular disorders.

Please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu,
