I've had this issue for about half a year and it hasn't gotten any better.
I used to think it was a wrist problem, but now I know it's my elbow. I can touch the tendon in my forearm and it sends pain all through my arm. Simple things such as twisting the door knob proves difficult.
My tennis is really being effected by this issue. I've gravitated towards heavy, flexible racquets to try and fix it, but it just isn't happening.
I used to take 3 Ibuprofen right before I played just to keep it from bothering me, but got tired of doing that. I'm not used to being 'crippled' so to speak.
I've tried ice, and a little bit of rest (it's hard for me to go 3+ days without playing) but it's only gotten worse. Is there something I can do to fix it, or should I just go to the doctor about it?
