Rackets for Tennis Elbow Protection

Causes of Tennis Elbow:

Tennis elbow isn't just caused by playing tennis. It is caused by a strain to the extensor tendons in the forearm. Any activity that involves gripping and twisting of the forearm can cause this type of strain. Anybody can get tennis elbow but it is most common in people between the ages of 40 and 60. In tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) the tendons become inflamed where they join the bony part on the outside of your elbow joint (lateral epicondyle).
