What Is Tennis Elbow?

Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis or lateral elbow tendinopathy, affects the tendons connecting the forearm muscles to the outside of the elbow. It commonly develops from repetitive movements that place stress on these tendons.

This condition may develop from:

Repetitive gripping and lifting
Tennis, pickleball, and other racquet sports
Repeated wrist extension or forearm movements
Work activities involving tools or manual tasks
Sudden increases in exercise or physical workload

Common Symptoms of Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow symptoms can interfere with work, sports, and routine daily activities.

You may notice:

Pain or tenderness on the outside of the elbow
Discomfort when gripping or holding objects
Pain when lifting items or turning handles
Forearm soreness during repetitive movements
Reduced grip strength due to discomfort
Pain that worsens with certain wrist or arm movements

If your symptoms persist or worsen, a healthcare professional can help determine the cause and whether additional evaluation is needed.
