Not even certain this is what Ive got. let me start with my hand and then I'll explain why or not it might be relevant to the now bad elbow. . A number of rounds back I actually hurt my hand and wrist while swinging from a very awkward crazy stance in a bunker. Honestly bothered my hand/wrist on and off for some time. I have occasionally had that happen in the past but not to any significant degree as this one time.
So ff a few rounds ago and Im beginning to feel elbow pain. Not all that much while I swing but while I do other things like grab stuff and/or simply move my arm and hand in a certain way. So this past week-ish seems to be getting worse. After my last round Sunday I was just fine during golf. But the elbow really hurt fairly significantly afterwards.
Now a couple days later and things that require me to clamp my fingers together causes pain at the elbow. Things like picking up heavier garbage bag and trying to raise it above the pail to then place it in the pail (which I just did like ten mins ago) hurts the darn elbow and upper forearm. Or perhaps trying to pull something apart I just cant squeeze onto anything with force and pull or lift with force without some significant enough pain
Don't know if something I did to the hand (as mentioned early) injury wise was causing me to then favor other muscles and tendons I don't know of that's the reason but I think ive git tennis elbow. I wasn't sure and honestly would need to visit a doc and find out whats going on for certain. But all the symptoms seem to line up except for one.
That one being that my elbow doesn't hurt at the largest elbow bone/part. But it hurst at the smaller boney knob instead. Its the part where as if you were to grab/cover your elbow with the hand from the other arm and do that from the outside. basically lay your good arm across your chest and lay that hand over the other arm entire elbow. Now bring that hand back a bit towards your chest and that's the smaller boney part outside part of the elbow. that's where the pain is. But the pain (as this has worsened) is also in the upper forearm area now. It seems to be tennis elbow and Im hoping I can still golf and is why Im posting to talk with any fellow victims of this or any doc that may know if I even have it (or something else).
last thing I want right now is no golf for most the rest of summer as its only just began..lol
