A member asked:

Why is my elbow tender to the touch and hurts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You do not specify where in the elbow. Could be an epicondylitis, a "tennis elbow", a cubital tunnel issue. A direct examination by your doctor should pinpoint the specifics, and allow appropriate intevention.
