YOU CAN STILL HAVE “TENNIS ELBOW” EVEN IF YOU DO NOT PLAY TENNIS! “Tennis elbow” disease, which is more common in people who play tennis, can be seen as a result of any activity that forces the forearm. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aydın Arslan from Istanbul Gelisim University stated that it can occur due to reasons such as squeezing a cloth, using screwdriver-pliers, painting. The most significant symptom is pain that spreads from the outer part of the elbow to the lower part of the arm. https://gelisim.edu.tr/en/news/you-can-still-have-tennis-elbow-even-if-you-do-not-play-tennis
