Elbow swelling and pain
Hi, I've recently developed a swollen arm extending from the elbow up towards my triceps. It often keeps me awake and i get numbness and lots of pain and feelings of weakness from it.
Thing is..I lean on this elbow alot so I draw the conclusion that its bursitis? Anyone know any exercises to help relieve the symptoms. Many thanks.

Re: Elbow swelling and pain
It might well be a bursitis. If is non-painful and spontaneous it should just resolve on it's own. If your elbow had a restriction in its normal movement then perhaps you should have it checked for fracture or gout.
Some images are shown below of anatomy, x-ray and ultrasound sonography. In some cases the GP might drain a large swelling although this often returns.
