Good information! It’s been about a month. Stretching has improved a lot,. However the portion around where the tendon connects to bone is STILL VERY PAINFULL and sensitive! Disturbs my sleep…… Being committed to just resting it my be best.

Question: Should I still ice or massage my elbow during the time that I’m resting it?

Best advise I've heard . Thank you , very well explained.

I got it once I started doing finger extensor training (in rice bucket) My way of dealing with it was making sure I rest 1 week between sessions, and drastically decrease the force I was using in the bucket. It's gradually gotten a lot better

makes sense but what if you don't gave time to rest your elbow ??,ie you use your arms dailly like at wrk,?..

I started feeling mine in July 2023 noticed while I was carrying a small vacuum (I clean for a living). I have more of a hard time at night, it keeps me awake due to the pain radiating down my arm towards wrist. I would of addressed it more but I missed a step & popped my bicep tendon off my opposite arm & had to have surgery to fix that. I am still healing from that since mid September. Once that is feeling better I’ll definitely address it once again with a doctor. Nothing works for pain. Icy hot is only temporary. Even with me not been working the past 5wks it’s not gotten better. I can’t take anti inflammatory due to a past surgery.

Thank you for this! I feel slapped with all the "zillion pull up" remarks because that's what I've been doing and not willing to let go. This is very clear and comforting. Thank you and God bless!

This is so true

I have tendinitis on my elbow and have and have a bad shoulder from compensating. I was working after my injury and continued to load it until my work restrictions changed and my job no longer could accommodate me, but then I started doing physical therapy and I felt they were working my elbow just as much and now it’s been two months since the injury and my elbow has not gotten better This information really helped to understand why.

Wonderful video. Thank you. Love your presentation style. What are your views on straps? Are there any you would recommend over others? (Obviously without assessing my injury I understand you couldnt be held responsible for the advice but just wondered if you know of ones that have a good reputation). My injury arose while performing boxing movements using dumbells twisting my arms as I punched. The pain is mainly centred in my extensor tendon.

Hmm. So I seen a physio and done gym exercises and yes had an injection and now I have done basically no exercise or anything for 28 months and it’s still the same 😭

I don’t know if giving complete rest is the guarantee that it won’t happen again. It’s true that all other exercises which claims to cure this in a day or two doesn’t work at all but I don’t think resting for 3-4 months gonna make sure that it won’t come back at least for sometime.

Super video this, delivered in an excellent way. Lots of great advice. 👍👍 If I may add my 10 cents, there is also a fair amount of research suggesting that those with medial or lateral epicondylitis have a lot of tension in their neck and shoulders; and that this rigidity is an indicator that the muscles in the upper body are not doing enough of the work when the arms are used - so too much muscular work is devolved to the elbows, in compensation for that. I've certainly found that the wrist rotation (etc) exercises only serve to make things worse and am currently working to free up the shoulders and neck. This seems to be working, though as the instructor points out, you have to be patient and not overdo it. This is the hardest thing for me because my own tendon-cy (little epicondylitic joke there 😂) is always to do TOO MUCH. Thanks tor the video. 👍👍👍❤️

Yes! using a mouse is one of the most aggravating things because it requires those muscles to be contracting at a constant low level. However, you can often solve this nearly immediately by changing from using a regular mouse to an upright one where your thumb is pointing to the ceiling - in this position the muscles don't work so it reduces the strain.

Got my "tennis elbow" from running a wood chipper. It`s been over 2 months, seems like no improvement.When I wake up in the middle of the night I can barely straighten my arm Probably haven't rested it as much as I should but no-one else is gonna shovel my driveway.

I've gone through Tennis Elbow. The literature is pretty comprehensive in that tendons need load to heal. I will say that because of that people undervalue rest. Look at it this way, if I was doing 80-100 pullups in a day and now I'm doing 3 sets of sub-maximal hammercurls then I'm essentially resting at that point. My point is that yes resting and offloading are important but doing nothing is bad. Offload for maybe 1-3 days at most. Your going to be doing a lot of resting though because if you really have Tennis Elbow like three quarters of your program goes out the window and becomes impossible to do. Picking the right exercises is important, a little bit of pain is usually a good sign you are doing the right exercise. Also watch your pain the next day. If your sore or the elbow hurts the next day you probably overdid it. The people who never recover are the ones who keep doing pullups and trying to continue their program or the people that do nothing and try to let it heal purely with complete rest. This injury must be rehabbed or you will never fully recover. The next time you do pullups or whatever it will eventually come back.

After having Golfers elbow for two months I met with an orthopedic surgeon who told me this is honestly going to last a year or a year and a half. He also went on to say that most doctors that are not orthopedic surgeons are going to talk about information and it simply isn’t what the issue is. He told me people use the word tendinitis citing inflammation and that it’s regarded as a misnomer in the orthopedic medical community. He said that golfers and tennis elbow or overuse injuries that have degraded the tendon and damaged it. The healing process he said would be modifying my behavior so that I do not repeat the issue that herded along with massaging the muscle tissue and increasing circulation with heat sleeves. I also found a place called “tennis elbow classroom” where they discuss why this helps. I wish everyone out there the best of luck and health.

Hi Chris - this is such an annoying injury to treat. Sometimes not moving it enough can actually also cause it to be more painful. So if you've been really strapping it up and not moving it, then it may be time to actually see if you move it a bit more does that help. Also, please check with your doc about the ibuprofen because it is really not good to take that for longer than 10 days at a time.

Tennis elbow is terrible to get and tough to get rid of. There is a roller on amazon called the Rolflex. It hurts but it works. Thats what i think fixed my right arm and most of the left. You clamp it down on the worst spot and then flex your wrist up and down and around. I could feel it breaking up scar tissue or something in there.

What happens if your forearm hurts ALOT but your elbow dose not hurt

I got tennis elbow twice the first lasted for a 1 year and a half training on a fire extinguisher company the second just healed after three months, lifting a heavy basketball hoop it just needs rest, and stretching often hope this helps. The pain is gone finally

I have it bi laterally. Work irritates it and I can't refrain from my duties that aggravate it. I've had cortisone Injections and worked for about a month. Pain came back with a vengeance. I'm not allowed to stay off work.

Can i do push ups when still injury?

You will have to check and see - push-ups can sometimes irritate it but not always. So observe how your arm responds in 24 hours after push-ups

I’ve had tennis elbow on my right side for 3 months that initially came from pickleball and a gazillion pull ups. I’ve stepped away from any exercise that irritated it, like pickleball, the gym, like pull ups, heavy weighted pull exercises, and press ups. Eventually as it improved I have returned slowly to the latt pull bar, using very light weight, keeping wrist straight and using TUT to help the workout. Where as I would do weights 3x p/week now I do weights 2x week but only 2x upper body exercises in a session and very light weights compared to what I was doing. Also to keep myself motivated, I’ve learnt how to play pickleball with my left hand from practicing hitting a ball in the squash court and then transferring my game to the court. Not initially fun, but it now enables me to return to my social sport whilst my arm is resting. I’m still getting issues with it, but trying to dial in to my elbow and manage accordingly to help it achieve the fastest recovery speed. I use contrast therapy morning and evening as regular as possibly, with stretching to further help my rehab. Hope this helps.

The person she is describing could have been me. I've had acupuncture, shockwave, platelet replacement injections, steroid injections. I've done all of the exercises, and over 2 years later, its as bad as its ever been. I love playing golf, and today have made the decision to rest, not more sessions at the range practising, no more swinging a club in the garden, nothing. Its going to be frustrating and very boring, but i can barely grip cutlery today!!

Good Lord the info on the net is crazy varied concerning tennis elbow. But NO ONE has addressed a very basic question. Should I do therapy exercises (tyler twists.squeeze ball,,,etc) when it causes pain. Not discomfort but pain. Like a little above moderate pain. Sharp pain. Why does no one address this?

@SportsInjuryPhysio

The rule for rehab and any activity when recovering from this injury is usually that it is OK to do as long as: 1. It doesn't cause a significant increase in your symptoms during or in the 24 hours after the workout or activity 2. And any increased pain or discomfort should settle within about 24 hours Sounds as if those exercises are causing a significant discomfort for you - however, you may want to check if you are perhaps putting too much effort in e.g. should you be squeezing at a much lower intensity.

I work as a packer for a large well known company that shall remain nameless and had tennis elbow for the last two nearly three months. There is no option for me to rest it in my work place, and it is not getting better at all.

You may benefit from getting a tennis elbow strap. We can’t recommend which one because they vary quite a lot but they are usually really cheap to buy off the internet so may be worth testing.

We've been hoodwinked all along. Physical Therapist facilities don't make any money recommending rest...

I had mine for 30 months now. No gym, no cycling , no running. took 2 months off work . Still no luck one arm got better. but right arm kept getting worse. NO help from doctors keep telling me use band and stretch . Only thing I do is drive to work, and do some key board and mouse use. I have all the right gear to not give problems like mouse pad with gel , keyboard resting pads, arm chair with padded arms. Even injections to elbows did not work (steroids) only things left are plasma injections or surgery

Has anyone tried the wellness clinic.? Where they mix your own blood with healing fluids and inject it into the area and then micro vibrate it.? I got it in both arms in August 2021. What's that.? 18 months now. The left arm stopped hurting a year later after getting cortisone shots for the 3rd time. The left elbow has had shots 4 times and it's still there. The orthopedic clinic I am going to is suggesting surgery but I don't want to do that. I'm at my wits end because my left arm is getting so weak and I also cannot do anything even around the house. I am back to exercising now because I couldn't stand it anymore but I don't use my left arm and I am doing cardio only. I have tried EVERYTHING. Resting it completely does not work. Neither does ice or heat or massage. The one thing that DID help was a roller I found on Amazon called a Rolflex for tennis elbow. It got rid of mine in the right arm ($79). It also reduced the pain going down the forearm on the left side but it hurt like crazy rolling it. So the pain now is only in that little elbow area. It is better than it was but not gone.

It's been several months and my arm still killing me

Gripping the handles very tightly for long period or going over very uneven ground can sometimes irritate it. So you will have to test a short session and see and try to identify your current limit and train within that.

I've had it for 2 years, then it finally got better for 6 months. Wooo. Now I hurt it again. Booo. Even though it's Tennis elbow I got it from golfing. Sucks, but I have 2 months before golf starts again. I think I need to keep it straight while sleeping. If it's crooked I wake up in pain

The amount of time it takes to heal depends on how badly it’s been injured

Best thing you can do is nothing. Exercise will just hurt it more. Do nothing until it heals and only then begin strength training
