Tennis elbow

R P Nirschl. Prim Care. 1977 Jun.

Abstract

Tennis elbow is an inflammation and/or rupture of the extensor aponeurosis at or about the lateral epicondyle. Relief of inflammation, improvement of strength, endurance, and flexibility of the injured extensor muscle unit, and diminution of the force loads in most instances will relieve symptoms.
