Define Golfer's Elbow

Although Golfer's Elbow and Tennis Elbow are similar, the conditions impact the elbow in different locations. For example, golfer's elbow causes pain along the palm side of the forearm. In contrast, tennis elbow occurs on the outside of the elbow.

As a result, patients can develop both conditions at once, which can be extremely painful. In addition, as the condition worsens, the pain may extend from the elbow and wrist on the little finger side of the arm. Further, certain actions can increase or decrease pain, such as bending the wrist toward the palm.
