A member asked:

What would cause inner left elbow pain? i always fear it is a blocked artery. doc says heart is fine. cholesterol is ok.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tennis elbow?: It is more likely to be due to stretching of the ulnar nerve or some ligament issues. Elbow pain by itself is not a sign of heart disease.
