What Causes Tennis Elbow?

Most healthcare professionals agree that repetitive motion is the major cause of tennis elbow, leading to miniscule tears in the forearm tendon that attaches to the elbow.

Because tennis involves repeated use of the elbow, often for long periods of time, tennis is a major cause of elbow injury and hence the term “tennis elbow”. However other sports such as golf that involves repeated use of the elbow can also cause tennis elbow. Jobs  requiring repeated use of the elbow, such as mechanics and joiners can similarly cause tennis elbow.
