Tennis Elbow fix

Epicondylitis, Also known as Tennis elbow is typically a repetitive, range of motion injury. At its core, it is just tendinitis of the elbow.

The treatment for early stage is ice and rest. Ice for 10 minutes every night and Rest until you can use it without pain.

Tennis players will typically push the limits on this by using a Tennis elbow strap which takes the pressure off the tendinitis to allow you to keep playing without pain. They do work and you can buy one on amazon for about $18.
