Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow is a painful condition that occurs when tendons in your elbow are inflamed usually due to repetitive motions of the wrist and arm. The area of pain is at the outer part of the elbow. Pain can also spread into your forearm and wrist.
Cause of tennis elbow
Overuse of the muscles and tendons of the forearm and elbow are the most common reason people develop tennis elbow. Repeating some types of activities over and over again can put too much strain on the elbow tendons. These activities are not necessarily high-level sports competition. Hammering nails, picking up heavy buckets, or pruning shrubs can all cause the pain of tennis elbow.
Symptom of tennis elbow
The main symptom of tennis elbow is tenderness and pain that starts at outside of the elbow. The pain may spread down the forearm. It may go as far as the back of the middle and ring fingers. The forearm muscles may also feel tight and sore.
