A member asked:
What do you suggest if my the bone in my elbow feels like it about to pirce through the skin and it hurts really bad any idea what's wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You may have: A bursitis or a tendinitis. These are both inflammatory conditions that could be due to overuse of the joint, trauma to the elbow, or less likely an infection. An anti-inflammatory drug if you can take it may alleviate the pain. If the area becomes red, hot, or inflamed, see a physician for an exam as infection or inflammatory arthritis are possible.
