Elbow pain information


Elbow pain generally refers to discomfort in the joint (elbow) between the upper arm and forearm. Elbow pain is a common complaint in both the emergency department and in primary care offices. The CDC estimated that 1.15 million people visited an emergency room for elbow or forearm-related injuries in 2020.[1] There are many possible causes of elbow discomfort but the most common are trauma, infection, and inflammation. Pain may be acute, chronic or associated with a number of other symptoms (e.g. swelling, bleeding, numbness, tingling, lack of mobility).[2] Treatments range from conservative measures, such as ice and rest, to surgical interventions, depending on the underlying cause and severity.[2]
