If you are experiencing pain and swelling at your elbow and wrist it is most likely from overuse and/or injury. If it is from overuse, you may be in a high impact occupation such as construction, lawn care, carpentry, or even Massage Therapy. The most common cause of overuse is 'trying too hard" and keeping the muscles tense in the hands.

Pain and swelling in the elbow and wrist could be indicative of various conditions, such as inflammation, overuse injuries like tendinitis or repetitive strain injury, or even joint damage. It is important to rest the affected area, apply ice to reduce swelling, and consider seeking medical attention to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
