Ice and exercise advised over repeated cortisone for tennis elbow
Dr Donohue urges wait ten days before returning to activity after a cortisone shot for tennis elbow and cautions against frequent repeats. Rest and ice 10-15 minutes four to five times daily aid healing, while strengthening forearm muscles to prevent recurrence. Walking can qualify seniors for a fitness routine with brisk, 15 minute sessions thrice weekly. Weight training is safe with proper stretching, which should be part of any program. A new psoriasis drug Etretinate exists for certain cases but carries side effects and pregnancy restrictions.
