Tennis elbow

If I had tennis elbow, how would I recognize it?

Tennis elbowYou would have dull ache around the elbow area and upper side of the forearm, with a particular tender spot on, or near the bump that can be felt on the upper side of the elbow with the forearm placed across the chest. Activities such as typing, using a squash or event picking up heavy objects may be painful. How soon can one resume playing squash after suffering from tennis elbow? That depends on how serious the injury was; you should seek your doctor’s advice. But it does vary considerably from person to person. In mild cases, you may only have to wait for a few days until the pain and stiffness subside, and then resume the sport gradually.

More serious cases may necessitate a longer layoff. But if you find that the tenderness return whenever you play, then make sure you consult your doctor as soon as possible. Tendons are specialized extensions or prolongations of muscles and they are formed by the connective tissue, which binds the bundles of muscle fibers together, joining and extending beyond the muscle as a very tough, inelastic cord.  They have very few nerve endings and, being essentially inactive tissues, little in the way of a blood supply.
