Elbow is a hinge joint formed by three bones. One bone of the upper arm and two bones of the lower arm. All three bones are connected and held together by muscles and ligaments. The common reasons for elbow joint pain are Golfers elbow and Tennis elbow. Both are basically repetitive stress injuries of the ligaments.

The group of muscles in the fore arm which helps in flexion of the elbow is connected through a tendon to the inner lower part of the bone on upper arm. Inflammation at this area is known as Golfers elbow. This can cause pain on the inner bump of the elbow join, may sometimes radiate to the fore arm and the wrist.
