Elbow sprains are injuries to the ligaments around the elbow joint and can happen when the arm is bent or twisted quickly or forcibly. The ligaments in your elbow help to connect the upper arm bone (the humerus) and the bones that make up the forearm (the radius and ulna) to the joints in the elbow.
Elbow sprains are graded depending upon the severity of the symptoms as grade I (mild), grade II (moderate) and grade III (severe). Severe elbow sprains of grade III can lead to elbow dislocation or joint instability.
Sometimes injuries in the wrist, neck, or shoulder can cause pain in the elbow. The X-rays will show if you have a fracture. If there's no fracture but you have fluid around the elbow, it's likely you have a sprain.
