My elbow hurts when i shoot a basketball?

What happened to my elbow?

  • So last week I was at basketball practice, and the coach was having me dive for a loose ball. This one time I landed on my left elbow, and it really hurt. It was sore for like two days after, but it was nothing really serious. Now a few days I started getting a little pain again, but it wasn't really bad so I didn't think much of it. Now it's getting worse and it really hurts whenever I use it, lift something that weighs more than a few pounds, or bend it. The pain is on the very end, kind of like the "elbow cap", and if I tap it with my finger it really hurts. I'm planning on going to a doctor soon, but can anyone help me find out what I did to it?

  • Answer:

    so i did something similar once. i was playing in a game of soccer and fell on my elbow, there was no bruse, so i didnt think much of it. the simpoms were like yours. turns out i ripped all the tendons in it, and had a hairline fracture.
