Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis,is very painful condition affecting the elbow joint and related muscles and tendons that insert at the elbow. 'Tennis elbow' is caused by overuse of the joint, and so, it causes the elbow to ache and produces restricted motion of the joint. While the term originally came from sports, particularly tennis and other racket sports in both amateur and professional situations, ANYONE can develop "tennis elbow" from ANY overuse. ANY activity that require repetitive and vigorous use of the forearm muscle.Some occupations prone to develop tennis elbow include:tennis and racketball playershousewives or maids who still scrub floors by handhousewives who wring mopsnurses who lift patients AND because of having to write a lotdoctors from having to write a lotpaintersplumberscarpentersauto workers - studies donecooks - studies doneand even butchers - studies doneweightlifterswrestlersThe condition "tennis elbow" is caused by repetitive actions that push the forearm muscle and makes it rub against the elbow bony prominence along with stretching of the tendons near the elbow.TREATMENTTreatment primarily involves RESTING THE JOINT as much as possible, restrengthening the forearm muscle slowly, over weeks, and changing the way the person moves the joint. For example, improper swing in tennis can contribute to developing the condition. In some cases, putting pressure on the area helps reduce the pain. The devices seen wrapped around players' arms are commonly referred to as a "tennis elbow band (or brace)", of which there are many kinds. Everyday persons can also benefit from short-term bracing, exercises, and changing their usual manner of movement.

The term has hung on in medical and layperson's speech, but the injury is NOT just from tennis or sports.
