Tennis Elbow: Understanding the Condition and Shockwave Treatment

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a common overuse injury that causes pain and inflammation on the outer part of the elbow.

Symptoms often include pain and tenderness on the outer elbow, difficulty with gripping objects, and stiffness.
