Tennis elbow, known medically as lateral epicondylitis, is the irritation of the tendons that attach to the outer side of the elbow. Despite its name, it affects many people who do not play tennis.

Common causes: repetitive movements of the wrist and forearm, prolonged effort when gripping objects, and work or sports activities that overload the area.

Common symptoms:

  • Pain on the outer part of the elbow that can radiate to the forearm.
  • Weakness or discomfort when squeezing, lifting objects, or turning the wrist.

Which specialist treats it? The orthopedist or trauma surgeon evaluates the injury and the physical therapist supports the rehabilitation; in athletes, the sports medicine physician is also involved. When elbow discomfort does not ease with rest, it is worth having it assessed by a professional to guide the recovery.
