A member asked:
I was diagnosed with tennis elbow jan 2012.started 6 weeks of pt in march.hand aches.muscles around elbow have deteriorated. do i need mri, nerve study?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TENNIS ELBOW: The best treatment is rest and no aggravation. Pt is also important. A steroid injection done once may start the process of healing. Topical medicated creams can be used as well. In pt make sure they are using low level laser as well. No need for EMG or MRI unlesss there is suspicion of nerve problem.
