Hurt elbow

[GothicSerpent]

When I do close grip bench my left elbow clicks when I lower the bar to my chest.  Now this itself doesn't hurt but when I do pullups/chinups (palms facing me) the inside of my left elbow does hurt.  I can do my reps but afterwards the elbow bothers me.  Is this a common problem that lifters have?  Or do you think it's a problem with my cg bench form?  I've gone through about 6 cycles and do pullups with each one and cg with about 3 of them and I haven't had this problem before.  If anyone has had a similar problem any help/advice would be appreciated.

Yeah my right elbow does the same thing. Seem to get better as I get warmed up. I have just been living with it. Seems to be worse during the heavy 5's.

It's probably pitcher's elbow, I developed it after doing heavy power cleans in my garage. Not being able to drop the BB on a platform was way too hard on my elbow.

It takes weeks-months to heal. I had to do pull-ups this cycle. Try doing pull-ups, that may help.
