Tennis elbow, medically known as lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition caused by overuse or repetitive strain of the forearm muscles and tendons, particularly those that attach to the outside of the elbow. Despite its name, tennis elbow can affect individuals engaged in various activities beyond tennis, such as gardening, painting, or repetitive computer use. It typically manifests as pain and tenderness on the outer aspect of the elbow, which may worsen with gripping or lifting objects. For athletes, particularly tennis players, tennis elbow can significantly impact performance and sideline them from their sport. The repetitive motions involved in swinging a racket can strain the forearm muscles and tendons, leading to inflammation and pain. This can hinder their ability to execute shots with power and accuracy, affecting their overall game.
