Hello,
Welcone to hcm.
These are very common problem after a trauma..
I shall advise you to
1.take hand rest.
2.take NSAID+ SERATIOPEPTIDASE COMBI
3.USE ELBOW STRAP.
4.NEVER MASSAGE THAT AREA.
5.TAKE A XRAY OF ELBOW REGION TO rule out any pathology /associated with fracture or not.
Also consult an orthopaedician.
