Golfer’s Elbow

Golfer’s elbow often produces pain on the inside (medial epicondyle) of the elbow. The elbow may feel stiff. Hands and wrists may feel weak, you may also feel numbness in the arm and hand.

Golfer’s elbow results from overuse of the muscles that bend the wrist or by repetitively bending and straightening the elbow. It’s usually described by pain from the elbow to the wrist on the inside (medial side) of the elbow. The pain is traditionally caused by damage to the tendons that bend the wrist toward the palm.
