All it means is that there is an inflammation on the medial side. Hold your arm out to the side, with the palm of the hand facing front. The side of the elbow that is closest to you is the medial side. Lateral epicondlitis (the other side of the elbow) is called golfer's elbow. This may be tennis elbow, but it usually happens from lots of reps, not just one. Just let it rest and ice it a couple of times a day (20 min each time). You have got to give it a chance to heal or it will turn into a chronic problem. Good luck. Any ?s just email me. Tennis elbow is the name for medial epicondylitis.
