Hi Gabrielle,
I have a dull pain in the medial side of my right elbow. It now hurts when I rotate (supinate). I was lifting weights on and off. Not too heavy but I’m not especially experienced with weights. I have now stopped the weights. I noticed the pain in my elbow after I had being going to yoga for several months. Before, I had no problems or pain in my elbow. I began in November and got a bit addicted (I love it!!) and started going three to four times a week. I am not too experienced but I feel like I have come a long way since I first started.
I should also let you know that I’m a professional pianist and, now, I notice the pain more after I practice my instrument (3-4 hours a day) and it concerned me extra. I feel the playing exacerbates it.
In half moon pose, I feel I may be forcing the elbow lock and I feel some soreness after it’s over. It’s strange because I feel like the tendons are relaxed in a straight elbow.
I hope that helps!
