Swimmers Elbow (lateral epicondylitis)

P6MMB
8 months ago

Anyone have advice for managing/healing swimmers elbow?  I'm early 60's, recently upped my swimming and am having lateral elbow pain after swims.  It doesn't hurt while swimming but tends to wake me with pain at night and also is extremely tender if bumped.

I'm hoping to consult a swim coach on my technique but would appreciate any other exercises/advice.

Thanks!

    One other thing that I meant to mention is that it’s possible, as was my case, that the original injury wasn’t caused by swimming. For me, I’m almost positive that it was caused by some heavy duty yard work I’d been doing…swinging implements (axe, sickle) while clearing underbrush and saplings from an area of my yard. — Dan
