hi all,

when i wrestle or lift weights i get an excruciating dull ache up and down my arm and it radiates from the point shown on the picture (the ring on the right, the dot on the left is my inner elbow bone for reference). ive been told maybe golfers elbow however the pain doesnt come from below the elbow. the pain goes away in maybe ten minutes but only if i stop my activity. any suggestions will be great thank you.

    Sounds like tricep tendonitis. REPETITIVE STRESS INJURIES are common with lifters. Pain at the insertional part of the tendon can radiate above the elbow area.

    Could also be a strain of the bicep muscle.

    REGARDLESS, treatment rest, icing, anti-inflammatory meds. If you push through the pain youll only suffer more.
