About Golfer's Elbow
Golfer's elbow is inner elbow tendon pain that shows up with gripping, lifting, and repetitive wrist flexion. Physical therapy uses progressive loading and strength work to restore pain-free grip for sport and daily life.
Expected Recovery Window
Mild/reactive: 4–8 weeks. Persistent tendinopathy: 8–16 weeks. Return is criteria-based on grip and tendon load tolerance.
Common Symptoms
Pain or tenderness on the inside of the elbow; pain with gripping, lifting, or shaking hands; discomfort with wrist flexion or forearm pronation; stiffness after activity; reduced grip strength.
Common Causes
Repetitive gripping and wrist flexion (golf, climbing, lifting); sudden increase in pulling volume; poor forearm strength endurance; suboptimal swing or grip mechanics; prolonged desk work with sustained wrist flexion.
How We Treat Golfer's Elbow
We use progressive tendon loading, starting with isometrics for pain control then heavy slow resistance and eccentric work for the forearm flexors. We also address shoulder and scapular strength, grip mechanics, and training volume so the tendon can tolerate real sport and gym demands.
