Snapping Elbow Syndrome is fairly uncommon but understanding how to recognize it is very important. There a several causes of "Snapping Elbow" and here are a few...
▶ The Ulnar Nerve coming out of the groove.
▶ The medial fibers of the triceps snapping over the medial epicondyle.
▶ A synovial fold getting impinged in the joint.
▶ or even a loose body in the joint.

Snapping elbow is common in throwing athletes and people who do a lot of repetitive elbow flexion and extension. Quite common in the weight lifting population.

How do you treat it? Start with modification of activities that reproduce the snapping. Sometimes controlling the inflammation alone can help. Try taping to stabilize. Be sure to see an orthopedic surgeon to get a good diagnosis and if the pain, tingling and loss of function get worse then surgery may be an option.
