How can I prevent tennis elbow?
You can avoid getting tennis elbow by maintaining good strength and flexibility in your arm muscles. You can use light weights to help strengthen your forearm and wrist muscles. Avoid repetitive movements or wear a splint during activities that seem to make the condition worse. And, make sure you warm up before using your arm for sports or other repetitive activities.
