An Overview of Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a common condition that affects over 200,000 people in the US every year. Tennis elbow occurs when tendons in your elbow are overextended, overused, and stretched beyond a comfortable position, usually by repetitive motions of the wrist and arm. Pain from tennis elbow takes place primarily where the tendons of the forearm muscles attach to the bony bump on the outside of your elbow. However, don't confuse tennis elbow with golfer's elbow, which affects the tendons but in the inner portion of the elbow. In both cases, pain radiates into your forearm and wrist.
Tennis Elbow Isn't Just From Tennis
The generalized term is hugely misleading because tennis isn't the only activity that precipitates this type of painful swelling of the tendons, also known as tendinitis. The swelling surrounds the elbow, forearm, and wrist. In fact, the activity doesn't have to involve sports at all. Unfortunately, any repetitive movement that involves the thumb and first two fingers in concert with gripping is an invitation for tennis elbow.
Examples of other activities that can lead to tennis elbow include:
- Racquetball
- Squash
- Fencing
- Carpentry
- Discus or Javelin
- Typing
- Painting
- Raking
- Knitting
- Playing guitar
- Chin-ups, pushups, and bench presses
- Forearm dumbbell curls or barbell extensions
