Volleyball elbow injury?

Question

When I serve in volleyball my elbow pops out. My coach says its from bad tosses but it really hurts and pops every time I straighten it. It hurts kinda on top and when I move it certain ways the pain shoots up my arm or down my arm. Should I be concerned?? Help is appreciated.
