Hi, I've had elbow pain doing overhead extentions for a while now but recently it got really bad. I'm able to do pushing movements fine like incline bench on a smith machine.

I usually go very heavy on isolation movements for triceps but it causes so much pain when I fully extend the elbow now. Even with lighter weights I can't properly extend it without hurting. I'm not sure if rest or eccentric work is best here as I'm still able to do my pushing movements pain free.

It's been like this for almost 2 weeks now. I'm seeing a doctor soon but any idea what it could be and how I can fix it.

Also I don't know if this helps to know but when I push down on a table at 90 degrees with both arms my elbows flare up really bad

Thanks
