Hi, I am a 46 year old female and I am experiencing joint pain in my elbow. I have been in good health generally and do not have a doctor that I have established as MY doctor. Would you recommend I see a family practice or another category of doctor?
Hi, I appreciate your concern.it is not clear which part of elbow, inner side, outerside or central front or back of elbow is painful.is there any limitations of movements either at elbow or wrist joint, and any swelling.it is advisable to consult or tho expert to get it checked, for the time being, give rest to joint, warm water fomentation, and any mild and safe painkiller may be taken with consultation to your family doctor. Thanks.I will be happy to answer any future query.
