Tennis Elbow, medically known as lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition resulting from overuse and strain of the tendons in the elbow. Despite its name, it is not limited to tennis players and can affect anyone who engages in repetitive arm and wrist movements. At Shri Balaji Family Clinic, we provide specialized care for individuals suffering from Tennis Elbow, focusing on accurate diagnosis, personalized treatment plans, and effective rehabilitation under the expert guidance of Dr. Vinod Girdhar.
Understanding Tennis Elbow involves recognizing the mechanisms behind tendon irritation and the factors contributing to the condition. Tennis Elbow is typically caused by repetitive motions that strain the tendons connecting the forearm muscles to the lateral epicondyle, the bony prominence on the outside of the elbow. These motions can lead to micro-tears and inflammation in the tendons, resulting in pain and tenderness. Common activities that can trigger Tennis Elbow include gripping and lifting objects, using tools, or repetitive wrist movements. Symptoms often include pain and burning sensations on the outside of the elbow, weakened grip strength, and difficulty performing everyday tasks. By conducting a thorough evaluation, including a detailed medical history and physical examination, we can accurately diagnose Tennis Elbow and determine the severity of the condition.
Diagnostic approach at our clinic is comprehensive and aims to identify the precise cause and extent of your elbow pain. We assess your range of motion, strength, and pain response through various clinical tests. In some cases, imaging studies such as ultrasound or MRI may be recommended to evaluate the tendons and rule out other potential causes of elbow pain. This thorough assessment allows us to formulate an accurate diagnosis and develop a customized treatment plan that effectively addresses your symptoms and supports your recovery.
Treating Tennis Elbow at Shri Balaji Family Clinic involves a multidisciplinary approach that combines conservative therapies with advanced interventions as needed. Our treatment strategies focus on relieving pain, reducing inflammation, and promoting tendon healing. This often includes a combination of rest and activity modification to prevent further strain on the elbow, physical therapy to strengthen the forearm muscles and improve flexibility, and targeted therapies such as Agnikarma & Viddhakarma.
Preventive care and long-term management are vital components of our approach to treating Tennis Elbow. We emphasize patient education on proper technique and ergonomics to minimize the risk of tendon strain, especially in activities that involve repetitive arm and wrist motions. Our team provides guidance on incorporating strengthening and stretching exercises into your routine to maintain tendon health and improve arm stability. Through regular follow-up appointments and ongoing support, we monitor your progress, adjust treatment plans as necessary, and empower you to take an active role in managing your elbow health.
