I've been lifting weights at the gym, and now I'm getting this sharp pain in my elbow, especially when I bend my arm. My trainer said it might be related to carpal tunnel, but I thought that was only for the wrist. How can I relieve this elbow pain?

Actually, carpal tunnel syndrome affects your wrist and hand, not usually the elbow directly. If you're feeling pain in your elbow, it might be something else like cubital tunnel syndrome or tennis/golfer's elbow. My physio had suggested doing nerve gliding exercises for my wrist issue, but for elbow pain, a doc should really check if it's nerve compression or tendonitis. Don't self-diagnose beyond a point.

Mujhe bhi aise hi symptoms aate the kabhi kabhi, par baad mein pata chala ki mere thyroid levels thode upar-neeche the. Sometimes health issues like thyroid can affect nerves and cause pain in unexpected places. Best to get it checked by a general physician, unko batao exactly where it hurts and when, they might suggest some tests. Don't ignore persistent pain.

Elbow pain, hmmm, I've had that sometimes after a really long cooking session or chopping veggies. Maybe it's just muscle strain from overuse? I usually just take a break, put some ice pack and watch a movie. After that, I'm usually fine. But if it's like a constant dull ache, then maybe a doc visit for proper advice.

Oh, same here! I get weird aches in my elbow sometimes, especially after typing too much or using my phone a lot. What helps me is just stretching my arms and wrists regularly, and making sure my posture is good when I'm working. Also, sometimes just a day of rest makes a big difference. But if it's really bothering you, please go see a doctor to know what exactly is happening.

Haan, aise dard mein ghar pe oil malish aur garam paani ki sek (hot compress) karke dekh sakte ho. Usually, agar thoda kheechav ya strain hai, toh usse aaram mil jaata hai. Par agar dard bahot tez hai ya badhta ja raha hai, toh doctor ko dikhana hi theek rahega. Kabhi kabhi takiye ka use ya computer pe baitne ka tareeka bhi galat hota hai.
