Nerve impingement or compression in the elbow region can lead to significant discomfort and reduced functional capability. This condition can occur when surrounding tissues apply pressure to the nerves, disrupting normal neural transmission and causing pain in the elbow joint area. Unlike musculoskeletal issues, nerve impingement may produce sharp or shooting pains, accompanied by tingling or numbness in the forearm and hand. Understanding the neurophysiological causes of elbow pain can inform better diagnostic and treatment pathways, focusing on nerve decompression and addressing underlying structural tensions that contribute to nerve compression. Diagnosing Nerve-Related Elbow Pain Diagnosing nerve-related elbow joint pain involves a...
