Protection and Prevention of Arm and Elbow Pain
Help for More Than Tennis Elbow
Arm and elbow pain goes by many names. Everyone has heard of tennis elbow, the painful (and largely misnamed) condition caused by the repetitive twisting of the wrist or forearm -- sometimes by playing tennis, but much more often from overuse in such everyday activities as gardening and knitting.
Tennis elbow is irritation and inflammation of the outer/lateral tendon. There’s also golfer’s elbow, another misnamed type of tendonitis, which is caused by overuse or overload of the inner forearm muscles. Other forms of tendonitis, along with muscle strains, arthritis and elbow injury or weakness, also contribute to arm and elbow pain. Whatever the cause, the condition can make even such non-strenuous activities as typing or driving painful.
Pain relief comes through protection and prevention. Giving your elbow proper support can help alleviate pain not only in and around the elbow, but also in the supinator – the forearm muscle that allows you to turn your right hand clockwise and your left hand counterclockwise. Core’s Elbow Supports provide needed compression and stability to the injured area, while also allowing for flexibility and breathability. The products can help everything from elbow joint weakness to supinator muscle strain, and can be used with medically accepted cold therapy.
Core’s Elbow Supports are designed for temporary relief of acute, sub-acute or chronic inflammation of the elbow. They can help address a range of injuries – those requiring the R.I.C.E. (rest, ice, compression and elevation) treatment, those that are healing and will benefit from added support, and those resulting from chronic weak tendons or arthritis.
Core’s products to alleviate or prevent arm and elbow pain are manufactured in the company’s own facilities to ensure quality control. The high-quality products, designed in concert with health professionals, are tested thoroughly to give you an effective product at an affordable price.
