I used to deal with elbow pain similar to what OP is describing, but one day I learned how to pop my elbow and I haven't had pain since. I have no idea if the popping actually helps it or if I did something else differently, but I pop my elbow regularly now just in case.


When im doing my stretches ill sometimes accidently crack the elbow just above the olecranon process and it feels AMAZING. i wish i knew how to do it on command

when I started getting it in my left elbow it was from tricep overhead pushes. Then in my right arm it came from pull ups.

I tried to take a little time off (a week) that didn't work. I started taking some joint pills (Gluocosamine) and rubbed in some aspercreme on it then used a compression sleeve. I think the sleeve was the key. It took a couple months, but its gone now.

It took a lot of warming up for me to do bench and shoulder press and for the bicep issue I had to do a few sets of curls before I could do chinups.
