Tennis Elbow

GENERAL INFORMATION

Tennis elbow is the condition when overuse of the elbow has led to an injury of the muscles and tendons. Extended periods of repetitive use damage the muscles and tendons that work the elbow joint and without enough time to repair can weaken these tissues over time. The usual symptoms of tennis elbow are pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow.
