Tennis Elbow?

Question

What exactly is tennis elbow and how do u cure it? because i think i now have it because my elbow hurts and I've been playing a lot of tennis lately.

Answer 1

Once you get it, it can always come back. Do what i do:
1) Wear an elbow strap !
2) Use "soft" strings (multifilaments)
3) Use a racquet with a stiffness under 70
4) Strenghthen your forearm and wrist with exercise using a squeezing device.
5) Do bicep curls with weights, they strengthen your forearm.

If you get it bad, you have to stop cold turkey for 2 months, I learned that the hard way. If you keep trying to play with bad pain it never heals.

Answer 2

tennis elbow is inflammation of the tendons attached at the elbow. It is also called tendonitis.
This is a very helpful site. It explains the condition, the causes and what you can do for treatment and how to avoid it recurring.
Good luck.
