Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow is a painful condition that affects the tendons in your elbow. It occurs when these tendons are overworked, usually caused by repetitive motions of the wrist and arm. While it is common in athletes, this condition can affect the average person. People whose jobs feature the types of movements that can lead to tennis elbow include plumbers, painters, carpenters, and musicians. The repetitive motion causes microtears in the tendons, including the ones outside of the elbow, forearm, and wrist. These tears often lead to pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow.
