ELBOW PAIN

Welcome to Keep it Kinetic Chiropractic, where we specialize in unraveling the complexities of musculoskeletal issues, providing personalized care for a pain-free life. In this detailed exploration, we shed light on the often-debilitating conditions of Tennis Elbow and Golfer's Elbow, offering insights into their causes, symptoms, and how chiropractic care can bring relief.


Understanding Tennis Elbow and Golfer's Elbow:

 Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis):

Contrary to its name, Tennis Elbow isn't exclusive to racket sports enthusiasts. This condition arises from overuse of the forearm extensor muscles and tendons, resulting in microtears and inflammation on the outer side of the elbow. Repetitive gripping, lifting, or twisting motions can exacerbate this condition, causing discomfort and hindering daily activities.

Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis):

Golfer's Elbow affects the inner side of the elbow, stemming from repetitive stress on the wrist and finger flexor muscles. Activities involving gripping, lifting, or throwing can contribute to microtears and inflammation in the tendons, leading to pain and restricted mobility. Despite its name, this condition is not limited to golfers and can affect anyone engaging in repetitive arm motions.


Signs and Symptoms:

Recognizing the early signs of these conditions is crucial for timely intervention. Individuals experiencing Tennis Elbow or Golfer's Elbow may encounter:

  • Persistent pain and tenderness around the affected elbow area

  • Weakness and difficulty gripping or lifting objects

  • Stiffness and limited range of motion in the affected arm

  • Gradual onset of symptoms related to repetitive activities
