Some years back, my husband had a steroid injection for Tennis Elbow. Apparently his father had the same. Both found this to be a permanent cure. My mother had 2 steroid injections for Tennis Elbow but despite relief for a while, the symptoms returned and she had to have a tendon release operation. It completely freed her from pain but affected her fine manual dexterity. Recently, I got tennis elbow and had a steroid injection. My doctor said I had a choice of that or an operation. The injection eased the symptoms, but now they are gradually coming back. I don’t want a tendon release operation if it affects my manual dexterity as I am a touch-typist and a pianist. My doctor said I can only have one more injection then the only choice is an operation. Snould I put up with the mild pain and delay my second chance of an injection until absolutely necessary?
