What Causes Severe Pain And Burning Sensation In Right Elbow?

I was riding my dirt bike with out any falls or injuries. About half way through my ride I noticed my Right elbow felt like it was strained. The pain began to get worse further into my ride. even after my ride I noticed a burning sensation that was coming from inside. I naturally iced it but the pain only subsided a little. It has been a week and the pain s still there. @ days after the pain began i developed a bruise on the inside of my elbow. I dont recall hitting it on anything. The pain is still there and feels like it strained more than anything. I have a hard time unbuckling my belt if using my right arm along with even picking up a back pack in the classic curl joint motion. If I make a tight squeezing fist with my right hand I feel the pain. Im confident its not broken. Any suggestions?

Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to muscle strain.

For that you can you can take tablet motrin. Apply diclofenac gel locally. Heating pads will also help.

Kindly do X Ray of affected joint. Restrict your movements. Treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition
