Suggest Treatment For Severe Arm And Elbow Pain

I play baseball, and this season so far, I have had numerous problems with my arm. This last one has me concerned. Lack of throwing power, some moderate pain, and when I exhale, I feel a sharp radiating pain in my bicep. It feels like my elbow mostly, but it s definitely my entire arm.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi there.

You could be having Rotator cuff tendinosis or Biceps tendinosis.

I would advice you to avoid throwing activities for a while
Apply warm soaks to the painful area. Try pain killers and muscle relaxant for a week. If the pain does not get relieved, kindly show to a Sports Medicine specialist.
