Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, you need to have an X-ray of the elbow joint specially olecranon process of ulna as after taking the blow, any chip fracture, night have occurred which may cause rub of muscle or nerve against it, and may need orthopedic surgeon review.

Meanwhile, OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be helpful for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
