Hi,

I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. As per your history, please find my advice below:

1) Do a detailed clinical exam and x-ray of joint to rule out [Lateral Epicondylitis]

2) There are various conservative treatment procedures available first try conservative treatment, if it is failed then try surgical treatment.

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me. Wishing you all the best.

Thanks,
Dr. Uday Nath Sahoo
