Health Tip: Remedies for Sore Elbow

(HealthDay News) -- Elbow pain can keep you from a normal daily life, says Harvard Medical School.

The school mentions these possible remedies for an aching elbow:

  • Rest. Take a break from overusing the muscle group that may be behind elbow pain.

  • Heat therapy. Heat can encourage healing by bringing blood flow and nutrients to the elbow.

  • Stretching. Stretch out the muscles of the forearm.

  • Bracing. Immobilize the muscles that may be causing pain, so they can heal.
