I have pain in my elbow.?

Question:

I have pain in my elbow right above and below it. This is the 3rd time I've had it, it doesn't come often, but when I fully extend my arm it would hurt. Now, it hurts even when I'm not extending it. Anyone have any idea what it could be or how to make it feel better?

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis

You may wear a forearm brace or sling for a few days. Applying cold or warmth may help ease pain and stiffness
