What Causes Burning Pain In The Back Side Of Elbow?

I have a burning pain in the back of my elbow at the point of the bone when I do tricep press exercises. Also I have to often stretch my arm with force to pop my elbow which is followed by the same burning pain. It s also tender to the touch. What could have happened?

Hello,

I have read your query.

There can be muscle or tendon internal injury .
Gradually start elbow exercises consulting physiotherapist also Physiotherapy like TENS and ultrasound will help. Take calcium supplement with vit D.
Avoid lifting weight and screwing movement.

If no relief in elbow pain then local injection shot may help.

Persistent pain after all measures may need further blood investigation and MRI elbow.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
