Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylalgia)

Tennis elbow is a condition involving irritation of the tendons on the outer side of the elbow. Despite the name, it is not limited to tennis players and can affect anyone who repeats gripping, lifting, or wrist movements. It may make simple daily tasks such as carrying bags, opening jars, or typing more uncomfortable.
