Rookie
A week ago I finished painting a fence with a power sprayer.
Then I played tennis almost every day (some of it was just practicing serve or tutoring my family).
Then, two days ago I started feeling it in my elbow. Not extremely painful but uncomfortable.
I got me that elbow brace last night, took two ibuprofens, and I have been putting cold pads on the upper forearm three, four times a day.
This morning it feels better. No pain. Very light pain when I rotate wrist. Slightly more, but still slight when I bend wrist downwards.
My questions (asking your non-binding advice):
1.What else should I be doing to “nip this in the bud”?
2. Is my current regimen OK
3. Do I wear this brace at all times or just when I play?
4. How long should I stay away from playing?
