A member asked:
What does it mean when you have pain in area where your arm bends (where veins are) its a uncomfortable pain similar to when you have a drip in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Elbow pain: Most likely would be tendonitis of the distal biceps tendon that runs through that area, so called ante-cubital. If you've been overactive with the arm/elbow try to let it rest. If not resolving, see a hand doctor.
