A member asked:
How are you suppose to rest your arms if you have tennis elbow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You are not: You should be instructed in an exercise program for this issue. Wearing a tennis elbow band may help. Local cortisone injections may also help although a recent article suggest a tennis elbow is more likely to recur after injection than it is without an injection.
