Tennis Elbow

Syndrome
A Lancet 2002 report from Holland showed that steroid injections for lateral epicondylitis had a poorer long term outcome than physiotherapy or “wait and see” approach12. Prolotherapy has good results and is more logical, as the inflammatory response is utilized for healing rather than being suppressed.
