What is Lateral Epicondylitis?
“Tennis Elbow” is caused by overuse of the forearm muscles due to poor body mechanics and overuse, leading to pain, micro-tearing, inflammation, and weakness of the forearm extensor muscles. This condition can be debilitating, as it can affect a person’s ability to perform daily activities as well as their recreational activities. Those most commonly affected by tennis elbow are people aged 30-50 years old.
Symptoms of tennis elbow or pickleball elbow include:
- Pain on the outside of your elbow and on the boney knob part of your elbow;
- Soreness, weakness and pain radiating to your forearm and wrist; and
- Difficulty gripping your pickleball paddle, shaking hands, turning a doorknob, holding a mug or lifting an object.
The Fix:
- Stop and Rest – If you are already suffering from tennis elbow, it is important to listen to your body and take time to rest between games/activities especially if your elbow is feeling tender.
- Ice – To reduce swelling (if any), ice your elbow for 10-15 minutes at a time every 2-3 hours. Be sure to put a cloth or other material between your skin and the ice to reduce risk of burns.
- Fix your Body Mechanics!
The Swing:
Many common mistakes seen in players with tennis elbow are players who rely too much on their wrist for that added snap at the end of each swing. This places too much stress on your tendons. Instead, players should focus on getting power from their shoulder – not their wrist! This will make your swing more efficient and place less stress onto your tendons, overall reducing risk of injury. Focus on building stability and strength through your rotator cuff and periscapular muscles.
Lastly,
- Use an Elbow Brace – Try using an elbow brace to help protect the elbow from further injury and to help reduce stress off the tendons.

I\'m super excited! I finally got rid of my HSV-1. I got diagnosed of herpes from my husband who never told me he had the virus. I got tested at first when i first had the virus and i My doctors prescribed Antiviral medicine for me which really helped me a lot in suppressing the virus. I finally got cured using herbal protocol ordered from Dr Oyagu an African herbalist. I used his Products and it completely fought the virus and was tested negative. You can DM the herbalist for help if needed. via email oyaguherbalhome@gmail.com His medicine is 100% strong and active in eliminated herpes permanently. I can \'t explain my feelings right now. I\'m supper excited.

FINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUS I thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because life became meaningless to me because I had HERPES VIRUS, the symptoms became very severe and bold and made my family run from and abandon me so they won't get infected. I gave up everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because the doctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs but they never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me making it worse. I was doing some research online someday when I came across testimonies of some people of how Dr.Akhimien cured them from HERPES VIRUS, I never believed at first and thought it was a joke but later decided to contact him on the details provided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent me his herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after two weeks. Within 9 days of medication the symptoms disappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I was NEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you Dr.Akhimien because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep on telling the world about you. If you are going through the same situation, worry no more and contact DR Akhimien via website: https://drakhiniemodion.wixsite.com/drakhimien or email: drakhiniemodion@gmail.com ,his WhatsApp him via +2349133157031
