Back To Square One...

After making the mistake of thinking my arm was healed and getting back into a tennis session I found myself back in square one.

Back to the pain, swelling and discomfort.

I was starting to get frustrated now, I needed to cure tennis elbow fast!

Something that I thought I would try is wearing a counter elbow brace, these are quite smart as they spread the pressure over the arm and decrease the range of movement allowing you to do daily activities without being in much pain.

I wore this for just over a week to then find out that it is rendered useless!  I learnt that to cure tennis elbow fast I need to let the injury heal without a brace. This is because a brace reduces the movement of the arm and causes scar tissue to build up causing even more stiffness which is just something that lengthens the healing process.

I learnt that I should only wear the brace if I had to do intensive movements which I really didn't have to.

This got me thinking what else was I doing wrong that was limiting me to cure tennis elbow fast!
