A 41-year-old male patient presents at the community walk-in clinic  with complaints of severe elbow pain radiating into the forearm. His  13-year-old daughter is serving as a translator because her father is  unable to speak English and understands only a few words in English. The  daughter explains that he has been taking Tylenol to manage pain, but  the pain is getting worse and is keeping him from working. You ask the  daughter to describe the type of work her father does, and you notice  she is hesitant to respond, first checking with her father. He responds,  and she translates that he works in construction. Based on the response  and the apparent concern, you suspect that the patient may be an  undocumented worker. Further conversation reveals that several members  of the family are working with the same local construction company. You suspect the pain reported as coming from the elbow and radiating  down the forearm is caused by repetitive motions, perhaps indicating  lateral epicondylitis. What can you do to confirm this diagnosis? While performing the physical examination, you ask the patient,  through his daughter, if he has reported this injury to his employer,  because the injury is most likely work-related. The daughter responded  without consulting her father that this is an old injury that happened  before he started working at his current place of employment. You could  tell that she was becoming more distressed. What is the most likely  explanation for her concern? Visual inspection reveals erythema around the affected area with no  evidence of overlying skin lesions, scars, or deformities. What other  assessments should you perform? How is lateral epicondylitis treated? When discussing possible treatment approaches, you notice that the  patient is very worried and seems to suggest to his daughter that they  should leave. The daughter begins trying to explain why they have to  leave right away. What would you tell the patient and his daughter to  help them feel comfortable staying for treatment?
