Question
I fell about 6 months ago MRI showed nothing in my neck I continue to have elbow pain and upper arm painful.  Been to PT and had nerve condustion test pain still there.  Cannot lift heavy objects like jug of milk, raising arm and swinging back hurts what could this be.  One doc said not tendon or ligament damage.  Please help!

Answer
You may have misalignment at the elbow joint, causing pressure leading to your pain and weakness (cubital tunnel syndrome).  A good chiropractor should be able to assess and treat this injury, help you with a rehab. program, or refer you to the proper specialist if care doesn't fix the injury.
