Golfer’s elbow
Have pain on the inside of your elbow? Could be Golfer’s Elbow.
Despite the name, golfer’s elbow isn’t limited to golfers. Anyone who does alot of gripping or uses their wrists can develop it. It’s common among tennis players, pickleball players and people whose jobs require certain repetitive movements.
It causes pain where the tendons from the forearm muscles attach to the bone. The pain also may spread down the forearm and into the wrist. Golfer’s elbow is similar to tennis elbow, which affects the outside of the elbow. But golfer’s elbow happens on the inside of the elbow, closer to the body.
The good news is that golfer’s elbow typically gets better with rest, simple treatments and changes to how you use your wrist and arm. Most people return to their usual activities with the right care.
