Topical Tennis Elbow Treatments: Will They Rub You The Right Way?
Update: 2018-04-29
Description
What do you do when your Golfer's or Tennis Elbow is screaming bloody murder and you desperately need some relief?
Do you buy some over-the-counter cream, spray or lotion – or perhaps get a prescription for some more powerful anti-inflammatory gel medication?
You may get some temporary relief from your symptoms with little or no downside – (certainly less risk of side effects than with oral medications)
But, here's why, although you can reasonably expect a cream or salve to help protect your skin as it heals from a cut or abrasion...
You can't realistically expect something you put on your skin to help your Tennis or Golfer’s Elbow injury heal faster…
In this Tennis Elbow Classroom podcast episode, Allen Willette breaks these topical remedies down into three sub classes:
First covering the Non-drug herbal creams and lotions...
Then the over-the-counter liniment-type drugs – found in any drug store or supermarket without a prescription
And finally, the prescription-only steroid and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory creams and gels.
