Golfer's Elbow

Golfer's elbow commonly affects throwers and golfers and affects the inside of the elbow. It is caused by repetitive motions that damage and strain the muscles around the elbow. Symptoms include pain around the bony part of the inside elbow, weakness in the wrist and pain when bending the wrist downward.

Someone suffering from tennis elbow should ice the area for the first two days at least three times a day for 20 minutes at a time. Heat can be applied to the elbow after this period. Braces support and protect the elbow when taking part in stressful activities. Above all, resting the area until it is no longer painful to carry out normal activities is key.
