Swelling at the Medial Epicondyle
Tennis Elbow aka Epicondylitis, often occurs as a result of strenuous overuse of the muscles and tendons of the forearm and around the elbow joint. These Tendons attach to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
No, tennis elbow is caused by an inflamation or infection of the bursa surrounding the elbow joint. Sleeping does not cause this
This could be caused by either Tennis or Golfers elbow depending on wether the pain is in the right or left elbow.
The common name for the ulna bone is the "elbow bone."
Golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis) is pain and inflammation on the inside of the elbow, caused by overuse of forearm muscles. Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is pain and inflammation on the outside of the elbow, caused by overuse of arm muscles. Golfers elbow affects the inner side, while tennis elbow affects the outer side of the elbow.

Not usually, you can sometimes get "retrograde" symptoms that go up the forearm from the wrist from CTS. However, you may have elbow pathology..something like lateral or medial epicondylitis (tennis/golfers elbow) or you could have ulnar neuritis or cubital tunnel syndrome. This ulnar nerve passes through the elbow joint and can give you symptoms at the elbow and DOWN the forearm into the hand(4th and 5th fingers) where as CTS effects the first 2-3 fingers typically.

There is no specific medical condition known as "pterygium elbow." Pterygium is a growth of tissue on the eye, not the elbow. It is best to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment of any elbow issues.
