Elbow soreness

1a.) Stop throwing if it hurts.
1b.) Stop lifting if it hurts, OR only lift in the ROM that it doesn't hurt in.

2.) Go back to your Doctor and tell him what's going on.

3.) Get an Ultrasound

4.) Get an MRI

What kind of doctor are you seeing.

Is he a sports medicine/orthopedic doctor who specializes in baseball related injuries.

If not, find one.

If the doctor continues to say "everything looks ok", consider a second opinion from another doctor.

Have to agree with the above posts... Sounds like you might need an MRI to check for ligament damage. Make sure you see a sports specialist.

You dont want to mess with it this situation-- see a good ortho/sports doc-- it might just mean a period of physical therapy

Thanks for the help I'm getting a MRI.

do physical therapy

Really do the physical therapy - past where the pain has gone away and to the point they tell you to go away!!!! And have them show you drills you can do at home - many of the exercises for elbows do not require much equipment and can help prevent injuries in the future.

Obviously it's important to treat the symptoms with some for of rehab etc. However, it's just as important to find the cause of the pain (ie. mechanical issue). Otherwise, you have a high likelyhood that the pain will return when you start throwing again. Unfortunately, I've found very few Ortho's or rehab specialist that are able to diagnose the actual cause of the problem. They generally just treat the symptoms.

Stop throwing and all activities until after you have seen a Dr., received a referral for an MRI, had it read and diagnosed by a Dr. REHAB is something you will do once you know what is wrong and maybe learn what caused the problem. Any further workouts can only cause further harm. Try to seek out a sports medicine Dr. in your area that has experience with baseball injuries.

I had an elbow soreness,also. It took me about a half of a year to actually able to throw without any harm. You should just get a lot of rest and get a lot of protein. My elbow actually got stronger.
