My elbows hurt :(

They hurt when I try to straighten my arms, fully bend my arms, pick things up, pull my jeans/tights up or down.

It's both arms and it's been about 6 weeks. I know if I go to the GP I'll probably get told to take pain killers and rest my arms so I'm not going to bother.

Does anyone know how to tell the difference between tendonitis/tennis elbow and something more serious and long term.....I'm hoping it's not some kind of arthritis. I'm nearly 50.

I haven't done anything strenuous with my arms of late....certainly not tennis!

Anyone ever had anything similar?

Are you taking HRT? Insuffered similar. The pain would wake me in the night. I’ve started hrt and the pains have gone.

Yes, I take Kliofem. Have been on it for a couple of years.

Thanks DixiePeach
