elbows hurt

by Tommy Mee
(Doncaster,England)

After a light work out at the gym both my elbows hurt today,(the day after}. I have not worked my arms for about six months so I used light weights I wonder if I could have strained the joint as I have never had any ache or pain in the elbow or joint areas.

It could be a joint sprain, however, since you haven't worked arms for quite awhile, it may just be muscle/joint soreness due to the increased activity. If it doesn't improve in 2-3 days, I would see your doctor to have it looked at.
