Elbow Pain

I have been lifting weights for about a year now and made a lot of progress in the initial months of training. After about six months I started to get a lot of pain in my elbow starting in the back then moving to both sides. It will get better for a week or so then go right back to intense pain. I have tried tennis elbow strap across my forearm, ice, heat Epson salt, alive, all work for short period but no cure.  Is there any other brace, or therapy that I can do to rid myself of this pain? Quitting lifting is not an option

Hi,
The strenuous weight lifting may be causing a trauma to the nerves and muscles leading to the pain. You need to take rest or avoid heavy use of the arm for a few days. Please take physiotherapy  including gentle stretching exercises to condition the muscles. Take OTC pain killers along with muscle relaxants. Please consult your doctor for complete examination and management. Hope this helps you. Take care and regards!
