Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylalgia)

Golfer's elbow is a condition commonly seen in individuals who engage in racquet sports or golf, characterized by the overuse of forearm muscles or elbow trauma. A prevalent symptom is pain experienced on the inner side of the elbow, which can be aggravated by resisted wrist flexion.

The treatment approach for golfer's elbow typically includes modifying activities, taking anti-inflammatory medication, applying ice, and incorporating stretching and strengthening exercises into the rehabilitation program. Surgical intervention is only considered in cases where the condition is severe or persists despite conservative measures.
