“How can I fix a tennis elbow?”

In the majority of cases lateral epicondylitis or tennis elbow can be treated with medication, modalities and physical therapy program. Occasional surgical intervention may be necessary. An evaluation by a health care physician can aid in the treatment of tennis elbow.

I would consult with an occupational therapist. They could give you manual therapy and exercises once you're out of the acute phase. The first step is to rest the affected arm; you may even benefit from a brace.

Hello and thanks for sharing your tennis elbow issue with the FATD community. I am happy to offer my tips, suggestions and thoughts regarding getting over it. A thorough history and physical examination greatly helps with advice I can give. I am not sure for how long it has been ongoing, or what treatments you have tried. I know it is a frustrating condition and can take a long time to overcome. The medical term for it is lateral epicondylitis. It can arise from overuse, poor mechanics (while playing racquet sports), a lack of allowing the arm to recover, or lack of strength or endurance. The pathology involves microscopic tearing of the tendons (small ropes attaching muscles to bones) involved with extending (bending backwards) your wrist. Once the pain arises, I like to follow these steps to help heal quickly: https://www.pop-doc.com/joint-preactive.html I believe that a multi-modal approach to overcoming musculoskeletal (muscle, bone, joint) pain will help make the treatments more successful. When it comes to the E, or exercise, in PREACTIVE, I created and am a huge advocate of this program: https://www.pop-doc.com/browse.cgi?&action=browse_results&category1=Elbow&category2=Injury/Condition I hope this helps.
