A member asked:
I was told after about 5 years of weight lifting (locking elbows), you will start to have pain in the elbows. is this true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well: The purpose of lifting , fitness etc is not to have pain. If having pain, then you need to review what you are doing, see doctor(s) to diagnose and manage your condition (pcp, pt, ortho, sport med, chiropractor...).
