About Tennis Elbow in Mumbai
Tennis Elbow, medically known as lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition caused by overuse and repetitive strain of the tendons that attach the forearm muscles to the bony bump on the outside of the elbow. Despite its name, it commonly affects people who perform repetitive gripping or wrist-extending motions in activities beyond tennis, including manual labor, painting, and computer use. The condition develops gradually from repeated microtrauma to the tendon, leading to small tears and degenerative changes rather than acute inflammation. Pain typically worsens with continued use of the affected arm and can significantly limit grip strength.
