Cause of tennis elbow

Tennis elbow usually occurs when the tendons on the outside of the elbow are overloaded for a long period. The cause is often repetitive movements in work, sports or daily activities that cause the forearm muscles to become overstrained. The strain leads to small injuries in the tendon which can cause long-term irritation.

Symptoms of tennis elbow

The most common symptom is pain on the outside of the elbow, which can be felt both at rest and during movement. The pain often worsens when gripping tightly, twisting the forearm or lifting something. The discomfort can also reduce strength and make simple everyday tasks difficult.

Treatment with support for tennis elbow

Supports for tennis elbow are used to reduce pressure on the irritated area and relieve the tendon. By being placed around the forearm, the brace reduces the pull on the tendon, making movements more comfortable. A good support can be used both at work and during exercise, making it easier to remain active despite the pain.

Exercise advice for tennis elbow

In addition to using support, it is important to supplement with exercise and self-care. Stretching the forearm muscles and gentle strengthening exercises can help speed up healing. Rest from movements that trigger pain is often necessary, but it is good to remain active at a level that does not worsen the symptoms. Variation in working postures and regular breaks can also help reduce the strain.
