How To Reduce Pain And Tingling In Elbow After Hitting Hard?
I hit my elbow really hard over a week ago and it was tingly the rest of the day an now there's a pain in my elbow. It's between the bone on the inner part of my elbow an the main large bone. If I bump it now it hurts and feels like a nerve is pressed really hard.

You should load up on daily anti-inflammatory medications (advil or alleve) for 2-4 weeks. You should also apply a topical cream like Aspercreme. And also apply ice regularly. With these measures, it should resolve within a couple of weeks. If it doesn't, then seek out an x-ray from your doctor.
