Suggest Medications For Tender & Swollen Triceps Muscle
I fell last Wednesday and landed on my left arm, bruising and swelling was evident within minutes. The brushing was above the elbow and around it but my elbow isn t painfull it s the tricep muscle is so tender and swollen and very hard to touch. I can t bear it to be touched and not sure what it is but it s extremely painful today more than the days since my accident.

You should first see your primary care doctor to make sure you did not fracture anything in your elbow. You will need an x-Ray of the elbow.
