Try Glucosimine, Chrondrotan and MSM before that, experiment with simple therapies and find what works for you. I had the same thing and find MSM is good and I like arnica montana. Good luck but hold off on surgery. Surgery is the last option and then is either, better or worse or no difference.

If you think about it a bit, you will see that the real problem is the WRIST- stop extending the wrist- e.g. ironing, baby lifting, grocery lifting in such a way that you are pulling the back of the hand up. Turn your hand over, palm up, to lift. Get a wrist brace to remind you not to extend. Surgery is not proven to be better than Physical Therapy. So you do have more choices.Keep the splint on. Has to fit well, but does not have to be expensive. Another thing to do- get some small Dixie cups, fill them with water , and freeze them. When you are watching TV at night, keep ice on the elbow. Hurts at first, then numbs. Cold decreases inflammation heat may increase it. You can get your GP to refer you to Physical Therapy, also. Don't be eager to take the knife in this problem.
