The Beginning Of My Story...

Tennis was my favorite sport, I wasn't great at it but I found it to be the best way to keep myself stress-free.

I mostly played on the weekend but sometimes I would play during the week too.

One day after a nice session I realised a slight pain in my elbow, I didn't think anything of it and considered it to be a side-effect from my tennis session.

After a few more sessions the pain started to become more intense until one day I found I couldn't even hold my racket properly without a sharp burst of pain in my elbow.

Like a normal injury I got home and iced it and gave it some rest and whilst doing this I looked up my symptoms...

 - Pain outside the elbow which can be aggravated with excess movement
 - Swelling and inflammation
 - Tenderness near the elbow

and that led me to my injury....tennis elbow
