What Is Golfer's Elbow?

Golfer’s elbow, medically known as medial epicondylitis, is a condition that primarily affects individuals who participate in racquet sports or golf. This injury arises from overuse of the forearm muscles, often exacerbated by repetitive motions such as hitting “fat” golf shots or employing improper swing mechanics.

The pain associated with golfer’s elbow typically manifests on the inner side of the elbow and can radiate down the forearm. Addressing this condition often involves rest, physical therapy, and modifications to technique to prevent further strain on the forearm muscles.
