Medial Apophysitis

This condition, also known as Little League elbow, is an injury to the medial epicondyle growth plate. It causes pain in the elbow, and may cause swelling. This condition is most common in young baseball pitchers. Medial apophysitis is closely related to other youth throwing injuries of the elbow and may occur alongside growth plate injuries of the elbow in young athletes who overuse the joint.
