Elbows Aren't That Funny

About this episode

In this week's podcast, we will discuss two common overuse injuries of the elbow, commonly known as tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Both are caused by repetitive use of the forearm muscles from a variety of activities, not just tennis or golf.

Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is inflammation of the tendon on the outside of the elbow. Golfer's elbow, also known as medial epicondylitis, is inflammation of the tendon on the inside of the elbow. Next we will go over the symptoms your patient will present with and the different types of treatments you can offer them.

Join Dr. Niket Sonpal as he goes over these common, but painful elbow injuries.
