I really hope you havent got tennis elbow Nelson - cause I had it about 2 yrs ago, and I couldn't believe how debilitating it was, or how long it took to recover - in fact I'm still not 100% and I still wear an elbow bandage whenever I'm doing any intense hammerwork.
My advice would be, till you see the Doc, Don't do a thing with that arm, and get a strap on it a.s.a.p. (the kind you pull through a buckle, and velcro fasten, not the elasticated type support bandage)
Re: hammers, I've only used mine a little for tracing initial outlines for repousse work, but I'd have to agree with everyone that pneumatic's the easy option - I must make up a few different heads for mine and experiment with more uses for it!
