I’ll show you FOUR TESTS that doctors perform to diagnose Golfer's Elbow. The great thing is that you can do these tests on yourself at home. These tests are great because they give you more information about why you're having elbow pain or forearm pain and whether Golfer's Elbow is the problem.

Golfer's elbow is also called medial epicondylitis or medial epicondylopathy. Despite its name, it's not a condition that only affects golfers,. It often affects other types of athletes and even those who are not that athletic or active, like the typical desk worker.

The primary characteristics of Golfer's elbow are pain on the inside of the elbow, pain and tightness in the palm side of your forearm, swelling on the inside of your elbow, tenderness on the inside of your elbow or forearm, and pain or weakness when gripping things.

Other common conditions that can mimic Golfer's Elbow include conditions such as ulnar nerve neuritis, ulnar nerve entrapment, carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist flexor muscle strain, elbow bursitis, little league elbow, and medial collateral ligament sprain among others.

When someone has specific questions about Golfer's Elbow I always recommend seeing an evidenceinformed chiropractor for a full exam and treatment strategy.
