So, like I have posted elsewhere, I've been back in the pool for three months now after 30 years away, and I'm suffering on and off from 'tennis' elbow. Is this just because I'm old now, or is it that I'm overtraining, or is it maybe related to a stroke problem that I should get a coach to look at? Appreciate the comments...

In college I had something similar while training over Christmas break. I quit using paddles for a few days and it got better (of course you heal faster when you're young). I agree with ice and rest, and would also recommend antiinflammatory agents (Naprosyn, Motrin, etc.). If a particular stroke or movement aggravates it, try something different for awhile.
