Elbow pain can be one of the most irritating types of joint pain, especially because we use our arms and hands for pretty much everything we do!
So, if you are suffering from a sore elbow, read on to find out what exactly might be causing it.
There are lots of reasons why you might have a sore elbow. You may have injured or strained it during exercise or heavy lifting, which can then lead to other issues.
Here are some of the possible causes of elbow pain:
Tendonitis is where a tendon swells after an injury, causing elbow joint pain and stiffness and even affecting movement.
You may also experience a grating or crackling feeling when you move it alongside swelling, with heat or redness.1
Strains and sprains can happen when too much pressure is put on to your elbow and commonly come about during sports or when lifting heavy objects.
A strain is when muscles are stretched or torn. Whereas a sprain is when the same thing happens but to ligaments rather than muscles.3
Keeping healthy bones and joints is important, especially if you’d like to try and reduce the amount of elbow pain you’re experiencing. Whether you have tennis elbow, elbow tendonitis, bursitis or a sprain, we hope you can find relief by trying some different ways to care for inflamed and stiff joints.
Either way, if you have any concerns about your elbow pain, it’s best to speak to a medical professional in the first instance.
