Tennis Elbow Treatment

What Is Tennis Elbow?

Tennis elbow occurs when the tendons joining the forearm muscles to the lateral epicondyle become inflamed from repetitive strain. Despite the name, it affects non-athletes too — office workers, painters, plumbers, and carpenters are commonly affected. The pain can radiate down the forearm and worsen with gripping or lifting.

If left untreated, tennis elbow can become chronic and severely limit daily tasks. Physiotherapy is the most effective conservative treatment, addressing the tendon inflammation, muscle imbalances, and biomechanical factors causing the condition.

Who Can Benefit?

• Office workers and manual labourers with repetitive forearm use
• Tennis and racquet sport players
• Individuals with pain on the outer elbow worsening with gripping
• Those who have tried rest but the pain keeps returning
• Post-injection or post-surgical tennis elbow rehabilitation
