I was diagnosed with tennis elbow in both arms in May. The medications did not help. My doctor is now thinking it is not tennis elbow but rather has something to do with my herniated discs and spinal stenosis in my lower back . ( I have had that diagnosis for years, though it has never caused any issue with my arms.) He has referred me to a neurologist, but I couldn’t get an appointment until mid february. My question is this. My doctor ordered blood work. When the technician went to take my blood, it was like an electric shock went thru my arm and I yanked my arm away.I have had blood work several times in the past and never had a problem. Since that day of the failed lab work, I have a severe new pain in my pulse area of my wrist, whenever I reach my arm out. It is exactly where my pulse is in my wrist. Do I need to be concerned about this and call my doctor back?

Two weeks ago, I awoke with severe pain in my heels. They were bright red, and I couldn’t walk on them or even touch them – they were sore like a severe bruise. Ice and ibprophen helped marginally, and with some rest the pain went away completely. I also had joint pain in my knees, ankles, wrists,and elbows which has become more severe and persistent since the heel pain has gone away. It moves around, but it is always in most of those joints. It has been severe enough to interrupt my daily activity. I am taking between 12 and 16 ibprophen per day, and now my knees and ankles are swelled (my ankles are bigger than the balls of my feet). My elbows and ankles are sore to the touch like a bruise, as well as stiff and achy. My father is a microbiologist who thinks that I have a virus that has settled in my joints. I just started a new job, so I won’t have health benefits for 120 days. I am concerned, because I am 25 and have been healthy my whole life. Does anyone have any ideas as to what this could be or how to deal with it?

Ok. So I go the doctor and he says, I think you have lateral epicondylitis. He figures this out by bending and twisting my arms a few times until I would cringe in pain. I explain it "hurts severely if I bump it." He gives me a shot of Cortisone and says that should help, come back in a few weeks if it still hurts bad.

Well it did, the cortisone did squat. I went back and the next doctor says the same thing. Ice it, take Advil wait a few months, it’ll get better.

WTH? Just chill and wait? Still hurts, and its not getting better at all.

So anyways, I bent my arm and looked closely at it today. There is a lump on my elbow the size of pea exactly where the pain is emanating from. Touching it causes severe pain. I look and see no other spot on my other elbow like this. It’s smooth.

Anyone had a similar like pain and this lump? Is this lump a normal part of lateral epicondylitis?

BTW…HMO ; )
The lump does not seem like a pus filled cyst. It feels fairly solid and stationary. It almost feels like it may be part of some torn or delaminating tendon or cartilage. The pain is severe when it’s touched firmly. On a side note I have a very strong tolerance to pain, which is another reason this worries me.

I will be going back the doctor in about a week, but just wanted to see if anyone had had a similar like experience with this lump.

I am desperate to figure out what is going on with me. I am a 37 year old female and about a week ago I started gettig a sore and stiff feeling in my hips, it has progressed rapidly to my ankles (now slightly swollen) also my knees and shoulders and elbow joints. What could cause such pain in all my joints. I can not imagine it is arthritis at my age and so sudden. Could it be a pinched nerve or a virus? it seems to be the worse when i am laying in bed at night and unbearable when rising in the morning. I cannot sleep because of the pain. It does seem to get slightly better when I am up walking around. Any ideas?

Two days ago, I knocked my elbow in the opposite direction of it’s natural bend, not hard enough to cause severe pain, but it did hurt a minute or two then went away. Today I woke up with a good deal of pain in it, towards the upper back of it. I don’t think it’s tennis elbow, as I have had that in my other elbow and it doesn’t quite feel the same. The pain is constant but increases with activity, it feels really similar to carpal tunnel (which I have in my other wrist as well) but in my elbow, it hurts to type!! I could just rest it, but with an 8month old, that’s a bit hard to do with your dominant arm. Anyone know what this could be and how to treat it?

here’s my situation.

i have tennis elbow real bad. i’ve had it for about 3 yrs now but in the past few months, the pain has gotten unbearable.

i’ve already been in and out of physical therapy twice and have had 3 cortizone shots and neither worked. so i went to the doctor and told him that i think it’s time for surgery and he agreed.

but the problem is it’s a workmen’s comp issue and it has to go through approval which takes about 2 weeks to get. so i have to work in the meantime.

my job is very physical and requires alot of use of that arm. so having to work with this bad elbow is like torture but my job insists that i work 7 days a week.

they know my predicament and they know i’m in severe pain but they don’t care. when i try to explain it to them that i’m in pain, they kinda brush my off with the "suck it up and stop whining" attitude.

now here’s the worst part. meanwhile, i’m watching able bodied people getting days and weekends off and getting sent home early due to lack of work. but for me, instead of sending me home on slow days, they look for trivial things for me to do. doing "lighter" jobs is actually worse because it requires more movement and use of this arm.

am i in the wrong for being angry about this?

I am a veterinarian of 56 years old. Few weeks back I experienced a severe pain in my left elbow joint. When I touched the joint it was really painful. Pain was radiating downwards too and found difficult even to lift a book. Consulted a doctor and he diagnosed it as ‘Tennis elbow‘ and treated with Voltaren (Diclofenec sodium- 25 mg) for 1 week. No pain was experienced during the treatment. Once the drugs had benn withdrawn, it started again. Consulted a second doctor, he too diagnosed as the same condition and treated with Voltaren again, (100 mg slow release) nocte for 5 days. Today is the second day and I fell better.

(1) Is this the condition known as ‘tennis elbow‘ or some other condition?
(2) What shoud I do if I get the pain after 5 days again?
(3) Diclofenec sodium is a non steroid anti inflammatory drug. Should I use it for long?
(4) Do other tests necessary for a correct doagnosis?
(5) I am not diabetic. BP normal. Not pot bellied. Drink alcohol moderately almost every day

This aids in quick healing of the micro tears in the tendons and muscles of the elbow. Physiotherapy and exercises contribute to strengthen and improve movements of the muscles of forearm.

Physical therapy exercises have proven to be highly effective in removing the pain. Tennis Elbow Exercises Tennis elbow exercises recover the flexibility and strength of muscles of forearm and wrists. These exercises also ensure proper blood circulation to the injured part and promote healing. The intensity of exercises should be increased gradually and avoid doing the ones that are painful. Exercises for lateral epicondylitis consists of stretching and strengthening exercises at the wrist, elbow and forearm.

The normal range of movement at the wrist consists of palmar flexion, extension and lateral deviations. The range of motions at the elbow consists of flexion and then straightening of the elbow.

These movements should be practiced 2-3 times in sets of 10. Another stretching exercise is pronation and supination of the forearm. It is done by rotation of the palms downwards and upwards respectively without bending the wrist. Strengthening Exercises for Tennis Elbow

• Rest the forearm with wrist and palm facing downwards at the edge of a table. Hold a weight of around 400-500 g in the hand and bend the wrist downwards and then straighten it. Repeat the exercise for 2 minutes until the wrists are worked sufficiently.

• Rest the forearm with wrist and palm facing upwards from the edge of the table. Hold the weight in the hand, flex the wrists and then lower it down.

• Stand upright with the arms held out. Hold a stick in your hand and attach weights to it with a rope that reaches the ground. Roll the rope around the stick completely with the rotational movements at the wrist. Unroll the rope again so that it touches the ground.

• The same exercise should be repeated with palm facing downwards and upwards. This helps in strengthening the wrist flexor pronators as well as extensors respectively.

• Practice pronation and supination with appropriate weights or dumbbells. Another exercise is to place the wrist on a table with thumb facing upwards.
