What is tennis elbow?

Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis humeri, is a painful tendinopathy of the common finger and wrist extensor tendons at the lateral epicondyle. It is associated with degenerative changes and fibrovascular hyperplasia (also called angiofibroblastic tendinosis). It involves a combined tendon attachment of muscles that move the hand toward the back of the hand (dorsiflexion).

What causes tennis elbow?

Tennis elbow can develop in several ways. The name comes in part from the sport tennis, but it can also occur during activities such as padel.

Symptoms of tennis elbow:

• Pain on the outer side of the elbow
• Pain that radiates from the elbow to the forearm, wrist, and hand
• Loss of strength, especially with the elbow extended
• Occasionally, a swollen and firm-feeling forearm
• Pain when stretching the wrist (elbow extended and hand bent toward the palm)
• In some cases, golfer’s elbow symptoms are also present in the same arm
• Tennis elbow in both arms occurs in about 10% of patients
