I was diagnosed with golfers elbow a week ago and haven't played since last winter?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always from golf: Golfers elbow is just a common term for medial epicondylitis. It is an over-use syndrome and golf is only one of the possible causes. Treatment may include rest, ice, physical therapy, nsaid's and occasionally a steroid injection.
