It could be a number of things including: tendonitis, medial epicondylitis (also known as golfer's elbow) although most that own it don't golf or Cubital Tunnel Syndrome (Entrapment of the ulnar nerve.

The best treatment includes:
"Rest. Put your golf game or other repetitive comings and goings on hold until the pain is gone. Keep it elevated above your heart when resting.

Ice the affected nouns. Apply ice packs to your elbow for 15 to 20 minutes at a time, four times a afternoon for several days. To protect your skin, wrap the ice packs within a thin towel. It also may help to stroke the inner elbow with ice for five minutes at a time, two to three times a daytime.

Reduce the load on your elbow. Wrap your elbow with an pliable bandage or use a forearm strap. (can be purchased at local drug stores, Walmart, Target etc)

Take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Try ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen (Aleve), acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or aspirin.
Consider other medication.

If over-the-counter pain relievers aren't effective, your doctor may recommend a cortisone injection to moderate pain and swelling.

Stretch and strengthen the affected nouns. Your doctor may suggest specific stretching and strengthening exercises.

Physical or occupational therapy can be compliant, too.
Gradually return to your usual activities. When you're no longer in strain, practice the arm motions of your sport or activity."

If it doesn't get better, I outstandingly recommend that you see your doctor and if needed get a referral to an orthopedic. They can treat it with splints, cortisone shots, and paw therapy which often consists of a ultrasound treatments, special anti inflammatory medication pushed directly into the nouns and exercises to reduce pain and strengthen. If requisite they may need to do nerve test as well.

I just finished treatment a few weeks ago for medial epicondylitis (also specified as golfer's elbow) in my left elbow and it help a lot. I also had surgery on my right elbow contained by September for ulnar nerve entrapment.

Personally I would try the rest, ice, calm stretching (more info in the link), splint and anti inflammatory medications first. Then if it doesn't go and get better consult your doctor.

Good luck and I hope that you can receive from relief from my suggestions or if you have to see your doctor.

Could be inflammation at the elbow or wrist cause compression on the nerve. Repetitive strain, writing, typing can cause this. The one and only thing that will fix it, rest. Best of Luck
