A member asked:

What can cause elbow pain that goes down to the arm while working out? and how to avoid it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Check ulnar nerve: Ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow ( or other nerve syndromes) can radiate down your arm and give you numbness and tingling. Working out can exacerbate this either because you are flexing at the elbow or because of the repetitive impact. Yo should have it checked out by a hand surgeon.
