Now you came to the clinic today with a complaint about left elbow pain.
And it's pain that you mostly notice when you're using or bending your arm.
It's a throbbing pain that seems to happen randomly, but it does happen two or three times a day.
For you, the pain seems to be worse when you're flexing your arm or lifting heavy things.
Now, this has gone on for about a week or two.
It started out when you were cleaning out the garage and lifting boxes.
You describe the pain as about a six or seven on the pain scale,
and you say that it's becoming quite a nuisance and it's getting in the way when you're doing things.
You report that the pain itself wraps around the joint completely, but that you don't notice any other related symptoms.
You've been taking paracetamol for the pain, two or three times a day, but with little relief now.
You've also tried putting ice on it, but that hasn't helped either.
You think that it's probably a pulled muscle or something like that.
Is there anything else that you'd like to tell me or anything that I've forgotten?
No. That's all correct.
