New mom with tennis elbow!!?
Does anyone know what to do about it as far as treatment? I have a 14 month old girl - not a big baby per say but I think it is from picking her up…My elbow is killing me! It sometimes goes into my hand and up my arm. I go to a chiroprator and do not want any steroid shots! Any suggestions?

Avoid using it as much as possible (I know that’s hard to do with a baby). Tennis elbow is actually a form of tendonitis. You can ice it when it first flares up. That takes the swelling away (you will feel heat in that area if it is swollen). You can also try combo therapy - heat and ice. Place ice on it for 5 minutes, place heat on it for five minutes, and repeat for 30 minutes. If done correctly it should feel like needles in your elbow when you first switch. It helps the tendons heal quickly. You have to rest the elbow too.
Tennis elbow is a inflammation of the tendons(tendinitis) that is by your elbow, and moves over the bone. That is the thing that makes it hurt. There is nothing that you can do but ice it 3 times a day for 20 minutes and that is to keep the tendon from inflaming. What ever you do don’t put heat on where it hurts. That will inflame the tendon and make it hurt really bad! I play tennis and I had it last year. Just don’t play tennis or do whatever you did to get it. I know that you want to take painkillers to take the pain away but if you do that you can hurt it even more because you can’t feel the pain that you are inflicting onto your elbow and end up hurting yourself even more.
