Tennis Elbow

 

Tennis Elbow

The common term for lateral epicondylitis, this is a painful inflammation of the tendons at the elbow caused by overuse of the forearm muscles. It is similar to golfers’ elbow, the only difference being the location of the tendons affected. As with golfers’ elbow, only 5% of people suffering have developed their injury from playing tennis. Tennis elbow can also be caused by playing any racquet sport, golf or by carrying out repetitive one-sided movements in a job (eg carpenter) or leisure activity (eg gardening). Some people may suffer from both tennis and golfers elbow simultaneously. Tennis elbow is also a common symptom of RSI conditions.
