Hi
I have gone through your question and I think at this moment you can use over the counter pain medication and rest your wrist. you could also use some ice on it. I am not sure whether you are talking about osteoarthritis or osteochondritis in your elbows. osteochondritis is a defined entity and doesn't usually affect more than one joint in the same person, Osteoarthritis however affects older people and can affect more than one joint at a time. I hope this helps you.
I find this answer helpful
