∙ 12y agoYou can relieve tennis elbow pain through rest, icing, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Wearing a tennis elbow brace or strap also works for many people by compressing the area and preventing inflamed tendons from moving. Braces can be worn for the duration of the episode, or only during activities that cause pain.
There are also creams available over the counter that can relieve pain due to elbow tendinitis. Finally, a doctor can prescribe medication or administer a shot to reduce inflammation.

∙ 13y agoIf you have tennis elbow and immediately stop playing tennis, it can vary depending on the severity.
Tennis elbow can last indefinitely if you do not change the problem, which in most cases are either the racquet or the strings (but sometimes the way the player plays can lead to tennis elbow).
As said before, it all depends on the severity of the case and the conditions, but if you immediately cite and change the problem area, it can disappear within a couple of months.
However, ignoring the problem for an extended period can mean you will have tennis elbow for up to a year (or even more depending on how quickly you act against it).

What is the difference between golfers elbow and tennis elbow?
Tennis elbow and Golfer's elbow are two types of sore elbow. The prominent knuckles (epicondyles) on either side of the elbow joint provide attachment to groups of forearm muscles. Due to the concentration of muscular attachments in a small area, these epicondyles are victimized by a constant pull from the muscles. Certain activities like tennis, golf, household work, and so on, lead to inflammation of these epicondyles causing sore elbow. Inflammation of the epicondyle on the outer side of the elbow (lateral) is called tennis elbow. Inflammation of the epicondyle on the inner side of the elbow (medial) is called golfer's elbow. Though, tennis and golf predispose people to these diseases, it is not a rule. Infact many people who dont play these games and lead a sedentary life may also get these diseases.
