I tried researching how to cure tennis elbow, but pretty much all I found were ways to help subdue the pain or discomfort by icing it or what not.

Unfortunately life has put me in the situation where I do not have insurance so going to a Physcial Therapist is not that practical at the moment.

Does anyone recall what they have done , such as stretching certain ways, strength training on the elbow/arm a certain way? Of course the last thing I want to do is negatively impact healing by just tearing the elbow up more but I have a high tolerance for pain so I can handle it if I have to do some type of strength training.

From what I read I really don’t want to be out 6 months until it resolves itself, surely there must be something more practical in my situation.

*note, i got this from cycling by using the drop bars too much and not switching up more often so my elbow took a beating and I am paying the price now!
