The pain can be treated with rest, anti-inflammatories, analgesics and the application of ice. In the case of strong pain, corticosteroids are very effective but will not cure the condition. Gentle massage can help prevent the contractures that can become more painful than the condition itself.
Complications of Tennis Elbow
The complications of this condition occur in its recurrence after the application of all nonsurgical treatments. With surgery, the nerves may be injured, causing weakness, paralysis, and a loss of sensation. In the case of repetitive injections, the tendons can be injured.
