Hi, I am 25 years old and little bit fat. There is some issue with my left elbow. When I do push ups, or when I do fold and unfold left hand with any heavy weight, left elbow ticks and sometimes it hurts. Right elbow is fine. Is this a serious issue? Is it fixable? Is it to expensive to get fixed? I want my elbow smooth while exercising.
