Golfer's Elbow Causes
The condition, known in the medical community as medial epicondylitis, occurs following damages to the tendons and muscles that handle wrist and finger movements. Although golf is a common cause of golfer's elbow, there are several other reasons it develops.
Tennis players and other racket sports using improper techniques can lead to the painful condition. Other sports and physical activities that may lead to golfer's elbow include throwing sports, weight training and forceful, repetitive movements on the job, such as construction or plumbing work.
