Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having tennis elbow. It is tendinitis and it's due to overexertion of the elbow due to overwork. Treatment of it is rest to the elbow and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Sometimes injection of triamcilone is useful to relief pain. Second possibility it is synovitis. It requires further investigation by clinical examinations and x ray. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. You can also write to me directly on below link:
