Elbow Pain - Epicondylosis
The 2 Common Types:
- Lateral Epiconylosis - deep aching in the outside of the forearm. Painful to grip with the hand. Also known as "Tennis Elbow," though often seen is laborers and office workers.
- Medial Epicondylosis - deep aching in the inside of the forearm. Less common, related to repetitive pulling, hand sanding, and golf. Also known as "Golfer's Elbow."
When is it serious? - These conditions are usually not "serious" but can cause prolonged pain and disability. They respond very well to Trigger Point Release and eccentric strengthening of forearm and wrist.
