Ace Elbow thingies for tendonitits at my local Walgreens. Only cost about $16, but it actually helps.


Thanks. Gonna give it a try.

not a golfer but a physical therapist...those little compression bands actually work quite well...for a quick fix...they prevent you from gripping quite as hard as you normally would and keep your tissue nice and compressed and warm.

With a flare up...go a couple of advil (as long as you don't have stomach problems) and do an ice massage (frozen water in a paper/plastic cup) right on the area for about 4-5 minutes(don't be afraid to press in a little bit). A lot of times you can just have some tight fascia/a little muscle imbalance in your forearm that causes this to get waaay worse than it should. Pretty easy fix with a few treatments.
