What is tennis elbow and what can help the pain?

Pain in back of arm while playing Tennis?

  • I am seventeen years old, and I have been playing tennis for a little more than three years. I have trouble with pain in the back of my arm above my elbow. It has been bothering me on and off for about a year. I try to take ibuprofen before I play, and that usually helps. Everything I have read about tennis elbow shows the pain being the lower arm and elbow, whereas mine is above the elbow. Is there anything I can do to help this?

  • Answer:

    Get it checked out by a doctor. Better safe then sorry. If it turns out to be a tear or something, playing with it is very bad.
