Likely to be musculoskeletal pain

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear Sir

Pain at elbows is likely to be musculoskeletal pain. I would suggest you the following

1. Local Application of hot water fomentation: Either by applying hot water bag or cloth soaked in hot water

2. Analgesics like Ibuprofen will be helpful to relieve pain

Do get back to me if the problem still persists

Take Care


Best Regards

Dr Shobha Deepak
