Tennis Elbow in Sewell: Symptoms and Treatment

Technically known as lateral epicondylitis, tennis elbow is a condition in which the tendons on the outside of the elbow become inflamed or irritated. The tendons may also experience a change in cellular structure associated with degeneration and scar formation following overuse or repetitive strain.
