Took avelox. having pain across top of elbows when lifting with palm facing down. what's the name of this injury? how long can it take to heal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tendonitis: It is probably tendonitis. Avelox can cause tendon pain or injury. Usually it will go away in a few weeks. Rest the elbows, avoid the motion that hurts. Ice the elbows for 15 minutes twice a day. If it does not get better see an orthopedist or rheumatologist.
