Assessment first
You do not need to play tennis to develop tennis elbow.
Tennis elbow commonly causes pain around the outside of the elbow and can be aggravated by gripping, lifting or repeated wrist and forearm activity. Other elbow, neck or nerve problems can produce similar symptoms.
Treatment usually combines appropriate activity modification with progressive wrist and forearm exercise. Persistent symptoms may justify review of other options, but an injection or procedure is not an automatic first step.
For an individual exercise plan, technique checks and progression around work or sport, read about our private physiotherapy in Hull.

Common questions
Useful answers before you enquire.
Is tennis elbow inflammation?+
Persistent lateral elbow pain is usually managed as a tendon-related problem rather than assumed to be ongoing inflammation alone.
Should I wear a brace?+
A strap or brace can help some people during aggravating tasks, but it does not replace progressive rehabilitation.
Can shockwave be considered?+
It may be discussed for selected persistent tendon pain after the diagnosis, previous care and suitability have been reviewed.
