tennis elbow :(

[txfirefighter05]

Can anyone give any advice on tennis elbow/tendinitis. When it first came up it was pretty painful to grip dumbells and such. I've since worn a forearm brace and it has helped, but the pain is still dull with a slight burning. Wondered if there is anything else I can try.

rest is the only thing that really helped mine... along with a cortizone shot...

you may try doing some Ibuprophen therapy and ice

Stop playing so much tennis...?

Run out and get yourself some neoprene elbow sleeves. Wear them from warm ups through your upper body training. I had the problem years ago, but have found when I get the pain, a week in the sleeves, and my elbows are back to normal. I know many guys who won't workout with elbow (upper body days) or knee (lower body days) sleeves.

I always wondered about the sleeves. I think I'll try that and see how it helps. Thanks
