Weird bummp appeared in my elbow. Took a visit to the doctor streched ligament golfers elbow. Epikondylitis ulnaris. Two weeks of no climbing and a brace. I dont think two weeks will cure it and doubt the pain will go away as it has not for 2 months but thats with regulary strainous climbing.

Anybody with same injury or how they cured it?

Stop climbing and give it time! I had a similar injury a couple of years ago from karate, I kept training and it wouldn't get better, I stopped training for a few weeks and it healed. Better to take three weeks off now then to have to stop climbing for months or even years if it gets worse.
