A common overuse injury to the elbow is called tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis (LE). LE is a condition that causes substantial discomfort and dysfunction in the upper extremity. Thermal and electrical agents are examples of conservative techniques. It is a significant public health concern since it frequently occurs due to occupation. It also happens in recurrent upper extremity motions including desktop use, weight training, forceful forearm movements, and repetitive vibratory movements, which are the most common activities performed by an engineer. LE leads to lateral epicondylar pain, which is irritating due to inflammation of the extensor muscle origin, and also activities of daily living are restricted. It is not only seen in players with racquet sports but then most of the males and females are affected in the fourth and fifth decades, leading to limitations in daily work, activity, and household work. Rehabilitation seems the most effective treatment yet in acute and chronic conditions if later the pain does not subside then rest, injectables, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the options to be taken. Physiotherapeutic rehabilitation plays a significant role in LE.
肘部常见的过度使用损伤称为网球肘或外侧上髁炎(LE)。LE是一种导致上肢严重不适和功能障碍的病症。热疗和电疗是保守治疗技术的例子。它是一个重大的公共卫生问题,因为它经常因职业而发生。它也发生在反复进行的上肢运动中,包括使用桌面、举重训练、用力的前臂运动和重复性振动运动,这些是工程师最常进行的活动。LE会导致外侧上髁疼痛,由于伸肌起点的炎症而令人不适,并且日常生活活动也会受到限制。它不仅见于从事球拍运动的运动员,而且大多数男性和女性在四十和五十岁时受到影响,导致日常工作、活动和家务劳动受限。如果疼痛后来没有消退,康复似乎是急性和慢性病症中最有效的治疗方法,那么休息、注射剂和非甾体抗炎药是可供选择的方案。物理治疗康复在LE中起着重要作用。
