A member asked:

I had a crack in my elbow 6 months ago and i joined a gym and i m lifting weights and i have a little pain would lifting weight worsen my elobow?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: That would be quite unlikely after 6 months post injury if problems continue you may need to have the elbow reevaluated.
