Epicondylitis

What is Epicondylitis?
Epicondylitis is a common and well defined condition affecting the elbow. It is characterised by pain at the epicondyle, the bony parts on the inside and outside of the elbow joint. It appears under many names and is commonly known as Tennis Elbow in the lateral aspect (outside) and Golfer's Elbow in the medial aspect (inside). Epicondylitis is the result of some kind of muscle lesion or inflammation of tendons at the point where they attach to the bone. It has nothing to do with arthritis or any other disease.
