I'm sorry to hear about your elbow pain. I'm a physical therapist who just wrote a book about shoulder and elbow pain that may have some answers for you. It's on Amazon and is called Fixing You: Shoulder & Elbow Pain. In my experience, shoulder function is integral to elbow function. With elbow pain, typically focus is placed on superficial muscles such as the extensor carpi radialis muscles (in the case of tennis elbow) or flexor carpi radialis (in the case of golfers’ elbow). I believe the problems lie elsewhere. I explain what I believe to be an overlooked connection between the shoulder and elbow joints and how to test for problems and correct them. I wish you the best and, after reading the book, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
