Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a very painful condition on the outside of the elbow from an overuse injury. It can be caused from several sports, not just tennis, or even overuse on your computer, phone or iPad. These stretches and exercises should help.
To strengthen the muscles and tendons try eccentric strengthening. Rest your forearm on your leg or table top with your wrist over the side, palm down. With your wrist extended, hold and weight and slowly lower it. Once you are at the bottom pick up the weight with your opposite hand and do it again. Don’t raise the weight with your affected hand.
