The pain of tendonitis of the elbow, otherwise known as 'Tennis Elbow' or 'Golfer's Elbow', can be extreme, debilitating and difficult to treat. The surest way to relieve the condition is to rest the effected area for some days to allow the inflammation of the tendons to reduce. This is difficult, if not impossible (especially if the injury is work related) and means that exercise, sports activity and heavy lifting must be halted until the healing is complete.
Other options for treatment include:
Injection at the point of injury - painful, with mixed results
Strapping and general support - non-specific with slight improvement
Epi-Med brace - proven most effective immediate and long term solution
Tendonitis of the elbow is a recurring condition and is rarely curable. The best solution we can hope for is one that provides relief and healing during a flare-up and prevention during exercise and heavy activity.
An epicondylitis brace does exactly that. By bracing the muscles in the upper forearm, pressure and working strain on the tendons of the elbow is greatly reduced, relieving pain and allowing the joint to heal. Further strains can also be prevented - simply by wearing your Epi-Med brace during exercise and work.
