I'm concerned that I may be experiencing the beginnings of tennis elbow. What concerns me is that I'm only 20 years old, and I don't feel like I'm doing anything to contribute to tennis elbow.
I usually play two to three times a week, and after every playing session for the past week I have had slight pain just above my right elbow. It doesn't hurt while I'm playing; it only hurts once I cool down.
I can't think of anything that could cause this pain. I would consider myself to be in good shape--I lift weights and do some running several times a week. I think my equipment is arm-friendly. My racquet is a Volkl C10, and I string it at 58lbs with Gosen synthetic gut. The only possible thing that I've changed recently is that about four weeks ago I changed from a eastern grip to a western grip, but many of the pros play with a western grip, so I wouldn't think that would cause tennis elbow.
Is this the beginning of tennis elbow? Is there anything I should change that might help me?
Thanks for listening.
