Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I took a fall approximately 2 1/2 years ago in my kitchen. I hurt the tip of my elbow and the pain has progressively gotten worse. I thought at first it maybe a stress fracture and decided that it was something that would probably heal on its own. But as time has gone on its gotten worse. What could it be?
Your symptoms could be suggestive of a pinched nerve (ulnar nerve). For this reason, I would recommend performing nerve conduction studies and a joint X-ray study. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
