Try to cut away or remove clothing around the injured area, but do it as gently as possible so you don't cause any extra pain. Wrap ice or a cold compress in a cloth and put it on the skin near the injured area. This will make it hurt less. Don't do this in babies and toddlers because cold temperature can hurt their skin.
What causes sharp elbow pain?
The bump on the outer side of the elbow is called the lateral epicondyle. Lateral epicondylitis is a condition that causes pain and tenderness at the prominence on the outer part of the elbow. The condition occurs as a result of overusing the forearm muscles that straighten and raise the hand and wrist.
