Hello. I have been having quite a bout with golfer’s elbow this year and came here looking for some help and maybe some tips/exercises that have helped some of you.
I developed it earlier this year back in March and was able to shake it after a cortisone shot and strengthening my forearm muscles.
2 months ago I was practicing my serve with some not great balls (old and dead) and the next day the golfer’s elbow was back and was throbbing.
I have been doing the theraband, Marcy wrist, hammer exercise, heating, icing and have seen little progress. I did receive another cortisone shot about a month ago but that did not do anything this time around.
I am 33 years old and a 5.0 who plays 2-4 times a week. I have noticed I can do just about everything but serve and tolerate the pain but if I serve I can definitely feel it the next day.
I have tried taking a week or so off but have noticed if I take a few days off from tennis or weight lifting it hurts even more than when I’m active.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
