    Re: Strange elbow Pain for 3 months.........

    Ask the GP to refer you to a good outpatient physio. If you like weights I would not go for a cortison injection if the injury is to a tendon as this weakens it in the long-term. Also consider not doing lying triceps extensions at all as they are not necessary i.e. they are an abnormal movement for the elbow. Push-ups, dips, push downs, close-grip lat pulls to the front and normal upper body work would be enough to give you great guns

    Re: Strange elbow Pain for 3 months.........

    Just an update, i went to the docs yesterday and he thinks it could be Elbow bursitis,as i's slightly inflammed bove the olecranon process. Yet i don't really have the typical swelling. He has refered me to a orthopeadic, so I'm waiting to get a letter in the post of my appointment.
