Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a common condition that causes pain and discomfort around the outer elbow due to the overweight of the forearm muscles. Whether you are an athlete, an office worker or someone who deals with repetitive hand movements, tennis elbow can greatly affect your daily life. In Sterling Physio, we provide specialist care to help you get you quickly and prevent repetition.

Understanding Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow occurs when tendons connected to the lateral epicondile of tendon (so on the outer elbow) are inflamed or damaged due to repeated stress. Although it is common among tennis players, it can affect all repeated hand or wrist movements.

Anatomy of the Elbow

Lateral Epicondyle: The bony point on the outer elbow where the affected tendons attach.
Extensor Muscles: These muscles and tendons control wrist and finger movements and are often overused in tennis elbow.
Tendons: Connect muscles to bones and are the primary structures affected in tennis elbow.

Common Causes

Repetitive Movements: Activities such as typing, painting, or playing sports like tennis or squash.
Overuse: Strain from prolonged or intense use of the wrist and forearm muscles.
Poor Technique: Incorrect form during activities, particularly sports, can lead to undue stress on the tendons.
Weak Supporting Muscles: Insufficient strength in the forearm or wrist increases the risk of injury.

Symptoms of Tennis Elbow

Signs and symptoms of tennis elbow include:

Pain: Aching or sharp pain on the outer elbow, which may worsen with activity.
Weakness: Difficulty gripping objects or performing tasks requiring wrist strength.
Stiffness: Reduced flexibility or discomfort during arm movements.
Tenderness: Soreness around the bony prominence on the outer elbow.
Pain Radiating to the Forearm or Wrist: Discomfort may extend down the arm.

If left untreated, tennis elbow can worsen over time and lead to chronic pain or reduced functionality.
