Pickerington tennis elbow, the layman’s term for Lateral Epicondylitis, is the most prevalent illness of the upper body.
But you do not have to be a tennis player to experience lateral epicondylitis. Tennis elbow is caused by excessive strain in the muscles of the forearm (wrist extensor group) which is commonly seen in tennis players, carpenters, secretaries, manual laborers and many more professions. So any activity which requires repetitive wrist extension is intrinsically what causes tennis elbow, according to Dr. Dennis Schone. Localized pain in the tendo periosteal junction where the common extensor tendon originates from (outer area of the elbow) is a common complaint in 9 out of 10 cases of tennis elbow. Pain radiating to the back of the forearm and wrist area may also be the experience of some patients with tennis elbow.
OH tennis elbow can be a challenge because it needs lengthy treatment course due to the lack of a tendon sheath. The common extensor origin is more muscle like than tendon like, except that it has a very poor blood supply and is not benefited by the fluid nutrition that is found within a tendon sheath.
Your Chiropractor at Columbus Chiropractic will perform a thorough history and examination including orthopaedic and neurological testing to determine the extent of your tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis). With the findings, they will develop a custom plan of management just for your case.
