• Tennis elbow is a painful condition of the elbow.
  Despite the name, apart from playing tennis,
  several other activities can also cause this
  condition.
• Tennis elbow is an inflammation of the tendons
  that join the forearm muscles on the outer aspect
  of the elbow. The forearm muscles and tendons
  become damaged from overuse, i.e. repeating the
  same motions again and again. This leads to pain
  and tenderness on the outside of the elbow.
