Elbow Pain When Straightening Out My Arm? Posted: 03-22-07 10:04am
The three major sports i play are Bowling,
Tennis and Golf. A couple months ago
while i was playing tennis i felt a slight
twinge in my right arm but I didn't think
about it too much. But now, I think I
might have hurt my elbow worse doing
pushups or something. Whenever i try to
straighten my arm out fully(locking my
elbow), it hurts really badly. This is
the only time it hurts.
Anyone have suggestions?

You might have to pop in and see a pysical
therapist, sounds possibly like you have
"tennis elbow". Once right to should
strengthen your extensor muscles by doing
eccentric contractions of the arm.
