Best Answer

Yes, an elbow injury can affect your shoulder. Pain or restricted movement in the elbow can lead to compensation patterns in the shoulder joint, potentially causing discomfort or dysfunction in the shoulder area. It is important to address both the elbow and shoulder to prevent further injury or issues.
