Tennis elbow: i am experiencing pain in my right elbow. the pain is usually after i wake up and hardly feeling it throughout the day.what should i do?

Exam: The elbow should be examined. I suggest using Aleve ( if not allergic to NSAIDS and stop playing tennis for at least one week. Depending on the severity of the overuse tendonitis, you may need either a cortisone injection or a 6 day taper of prednisone pills. Call for an examination today.
