Golf Elbow in Zoeterwoude-Dorp

A golf arm is comparable to a tennis arm, except that the cause is an overload on the inside of your elbow. The pain radiates from the inside of your elbow to the forearms and wrist.

If you think that only a tennis player gets a tennis elbow, you miss the ball. A tennis elbow is caused by strain on the outside of your elbow. Think of repetitive movements during a lot of work at the computer or sudden heavy strain on your muscles when playing tennis without warming up. This overload creates small tears in the tendons that attach your muscles to your elbow.
