A member asked:
Would muscle relaxers help the pain from tennis elbow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Tennis elbow is a pain that is inflammatory in nature and not necessarily from muscle spasm. Your best bet would be to start with an NSAID such as advil (ibuprofen). If your pain persists, consult an experienced hand surgeon to address your needs.
