There are many types of elbow pain, and Lateral Epicondylitis is one such routine diagnosis. Some conditions have a medical name and a commonly known name, usually named after an activity associated with the condition. Lateral Epicondylitis is more widely known as Tennis Elbow, though one does not have to play tennis to develop symptoms. Many activities involve sustained use of the forearm extensor muscles, like playing tennis. Many professionals such as mechanics, plumbers, electricians, typists, musicians, massage therapists etc. can all be susceptible to tennis elbow. Usually, the condition arises gradually over time due to repetitive microtrauma, though it can occur from a specific injury event. There are many possible causes, preventative strategies and treatment options. The full article discusses all these factors, including typical symptoms see  Tennis Elbow Pain .
