Elbow joint is made up of arm bone ( humerus) and 2 bones in the forearm( radius and ulna). The ulnar nerve rotates around the ulna and goes into the forearm. At Rid Of Pain Physiotherapy we provide the successful Elbow Pain Treatment.
Causes
Elbow pain is generally caused by overuse injuries. Many sports need repetitive use of the elbow joint and ultimately it gives pain and inflammation in the elbow joint. The most common injury in the elbow joint is strain or inflammation of soft tissue around the elbow joint.
Nerve compression can cause numbness if the ulnar nerve gets trapped at the elbow joint because of an increased cubital angle. Ligament injury or muscle tear can happen because of a sudden jerk or injury in the elbow.
Post fracture stiffness is also common
