Braces don’t help, I’ve tried 6 different types of braces. And surgery made it worse. Any suggestions?? I’m willing to do anything to make this pain go away. I get shooting pains up my arm into my neck and back, and nothing I do helps. Not even taking Vicodin or Codeine

I began experiencing pain in my right arm about a month ago. I tried just using my left for a while but then got the same pain in that also. I went to the doc and she determined i have tennis elbow and prescribed motrin, a pair of tennis elbow braces, and regular ice/heat and rest. It’s been a few weeks now and it’s not a lot better. The odd thing is, i have pain on the outside of my arm AND the inside (all in forearm). Also, im now having swelling in my right arm and hand. Can anyone shed some light on this and if im doing the right thing? Thanks!!
Thanks for clearing that up! My next question is: where should i wear the brace? I have pain in the tendon and the lower extensor muscles so i am not sure where to put the pressure point. And the outer side of my forearm is swollen in one spot (kind of halfway between elbow and wrist – if you look down at your arm with palm turned down). So i’m confused where the pressure point should be… Any advice?

I developed tennis elbow through boxing. I would like to return to the activity (I haven’t done it in a week). I don’t feel pain, so would it be a waste to buy elbow braces?

My elbow/ right has severe chips in in which are visible and you can feel by touch. What kind of long term problems could this cause?
I know there are wrist supports (bands), tennis elbow braces, wrist immobilizer braces. But i dont know what is the best thing to use. I talked to my doctor, he suggested to avoid surgery because it will just keep chipping. I am 20 Years old. It happend a year ago and I am starting to get more frequent pain in my wrist, tenonts and forearm when doing simple task like typing and drivingfishing
Sometimes i get a tingling/ numbness in my hand and forarm.
On a good day I can perform tasks with ease as the chips have alligned; the elbow feels semi normal (smooth). But other days the chips move around and I cause more pain.
Any help or info is much appreciated. I am in college and working at a coop now. I havent had time to see a specialist about this but plan to. Please Help.
Any info on the proper use of any aiding braces would be nice aswellthanks
