Tennis Elbow Problem
Tennis Elbow: Causes, Symptoms
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow, clinically known as lateral epicondylitis, is a common overuse injury that affects the tendons on the outer part of the elbow. Despite its name, tennis elbow can occur in individuals who don't play tennis, but engage in activities that involve repetitive arm movements or gripping motions. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatment strategies for tennis elbow is crucial for effectively managing this condition and improving arm function.

Causes:
Tennis elbow develops when the tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle—the bony bump on the outer side of the elbow—become inflamed or damaged due to repetitive stress or overuse. Some common causes include:
- Repetitive arm motions: Activities such as playing tennis, gardening, painting, typing, or using hand tools that involve repetitive wrist extension or gripping can strain the tendons and lead to tennis elbow.
- Improper technique: Poor technique or form during sports or physical activities can increase the risk of developing tennis elbow by placing excessive stress on the tendons.
- Age and gender: Tennis elbow is more common in individuals aged 30 to 50 years old, and men and women are equally affected.
- Occupational factors: Certain occupations that require repetitive arm movements or gripping actions, such as plumbing, carpentry, or cooking, may increase the risk of developing tennis elbow.
Symptoms:
The hallmark symptoms of tennis elbow include:
- Pain and tenderness: Persistent pain and tenderness on the outer part of the elbow, particularly when gripping objects or performing wrist extension movements.
- Weakness: Weakness in the hand or wrist, making it difficult to perform tasks that require gripping or lifting objects.
- Stiffness: Stiffness or limited range of motion in the elbow joint, especially after periods of rest or inactivity.
- Radiating pain: Pain may radiate from the elbow down the forearm or into the wrist, particularly with certain movements or activities.
