Tennis Elbow (also known as Lateral Epicondylitis) is a painful condition caused by overuse or strain of the forearm muscles and tendons that attach to the outside of the elbow. Despite its name, it’s not limited to athletes — it can affect anyone who performs repetitive arm or wrist movements such as typing, lifting, painting, or using tools.
Common symptoms include pain, tenderness, and weakness around the elbow and forearm, making it difficult to grip or lift objects.Tennis Elbow causes pain and weakness in the outer elbow due to muscle overuse. Physiotherapy helps relieve pain, strengthen the arm, and restore normal function.
