Left elbow pain

The last couple of weeks have really started to lift heavier,i have pain in my left elbow very noticeable when i stretch my arm.Also when i do dumbell arm curls.

I have been doing skullcrushers and ever since i have been doing them i have had the pain.

Sometimes with the pain i cannot lift as much as i like.....

Also dont know if its related but also mid way through a sesh my forearms get really pumped not cramped but very big and hard try to stretch them out etc.Only affected when doing incline dumbells i use weights from 37.5KG to 50kg....

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.cheers
 
Yes, skull crushers can do this. Stop them if they hurt. They can put the elbow in an awkward position. Is the pain on the inside of the elbow towards the end of the humerus (ie; near the tricep insertion point?). Probably best to see a physio if this persists. e-docs don't know your situation fully. Over my lifting career this has happened frequently. Rest and a bit of massage usually does the trick.
