How To Fix Tennis Elbow Pain: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Tennis elbow pain can be stubborn making it frustrating to deal with. It’s especially annoying when it bothers everyday activities like pouring a drink, doing chores around the home, and exercising.
Tennis elbow can nearly always be treated to go away 100% within just a few months. But many people deal with it for 6+ months, even more than a year.
They spend money on braces, medications, and doctors visits only to get temporary relief.
In rare cases, some even go through risky surgery to get elbow pain relief but find that the problem comes back months later.
In this video Dr. David explains the root problem of tennis elbow and how to fix it. He also shares with you the causes, symptoms and common treatment options.

[@jamesstatham]

This is great, I’m an Armwrestler that has recently been blighted with duel tennis elbow. The concept of imbalance of internal/external forearm muscle couldn’t be truer with armwrestlers. Even though (pre condition) I try to stay balanced with stability exercises, it’s VERY difficult when the aim of the sport is to gain massive cupping and pronation strength.

[@jamesstatham]

But what should I do when my grip strength (pre condition), was world class, grip strength isn’t the problem (for me), even using ten percent of power results in pain. So what if the strength is already there, you just can’t use it?

[@jacquelinehoover9994]

[@Wordsalreadywritten]

Hi Dr. David, when I do the grip strengthener, is it wrong to change arm position when i do it? I do it with a straight arm and a bent arm. But i notice I’m still having tennis elbow. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m doing straight arm and bent arm, or if it’s because my grip strength still isn’t strong enough.

[@tgherman3619]

I just started a pool cleaning job and I think I'm getting this. My elbow area hurts specifically when gripping things with my hand and elbow area has a sore spot.

[@NamesAreRandom]

I agree with everything he said, but there is more you can do. There's a bunch of videos that show how to adjust the elbow which gives the inflamed area's a temporary break - some sort of band around the elbow, you tension the band by with a straight arm pulling it into your side with the other arm and then do some gentle squeezes. Lots of videos on youtube show this, just don't overdo it and irritate it by over adjusting. The other thing is it's not generally the muscles in the middle of your forearm that need strengthening, it's the muscles towards the edges - you can test and it's probably straightening the ring and pinky that hurt the most so it's the muscles on the other side of that you need to strengthen. Those grip strengtheners will generally mostly strengthen the middle. They also work the back of the forearms as well as fist has to be held cocked back when you squeeze so will irritate tennis elbow. Custom excercises that strengthen the muscles on the inside only and towards the sides are better.

[@Roxy0405]

10 years ago, I had to have my wrist joint removed (long story). The past 15-18 months, I have had tennis elbow flare ups. I have had x-rays & MRI with moderate damage. Bc of my previous surgery, I do not have the same motion as my other wrist. It will always be weaker than my other wrist too. I also have had cortisone injections. The drs said i am only allowed 3 injections bc of the area (it's considered a double injection). Does this sound right? Any suggestions? Should I do the squeeze machine also?

I caused that problem trying to carry too many bags of groceries in the plastic sling type bags. It took months to figure out what I was doing wrong and months to fix. I corrected it by wearing elbow braces and stopped carrying a week's worth of groceries in 1 trip.

Thank you for this video. I am 64 and have pain in both elbows and wrists, due to weight lifting, for four months now. A joint specialist didn't think it was due to arthritis or tendonitis, but worn-out joints due to old age. I've been using ice, ibuprofen, some rest and much lighter weights, but the still pain comes and goes. At my age, how much can I hope my wrists and elbows will return to normal?

[@IRONTOSS]

im in same situation you are, except its only my right elbow, I think doing the grip strength exercises he mentions here should help as the forearm is probably the weak muscle that is contributing to the imbalance. i bought one of those old school hand grips you can find at a thrift store or big five and started doing these exercises every hour like the Dr. suggested.
