For example, golfers, baseball pitchers, tennis players, and boxers often have elbow disorders.Elbow disorders may involve arm muscles, elbow ligaments, tendons, and bones in the arm.igament problems can occur in any of the ligaments located in the elbow joint. Ligament sprains and strains can occur due to trauma or as a result of repeated stress. The ligament may be stretched, partially torn, or completely torn. Sometimes youâll hear a popping noise upon injury.
