Golfer’s Elbow Self-Diagnostic Tests – Assess And Diagnose Yourself

Do you have Golfer’s Elbow? Take these simple tests if you’re not certain. This video will take you through the basic self-assessment tests you can do to determine whether your symptoms are consistent with Golfer’s Elbow or not. (This does not necessarily replace a visit to a Doctor – but these tests are basically the same as what you would get in a Doctors’ office.)

This video is about helping you figure out whether you have Golfer’s Elbow or not and I demonstrate some basic tests you can use to assess yourself.

These tests are pretty accurate, at least in a general sense, and are basically the same as what you would get if you saw a Doctor.

This may come as a surprise, but Golfer’s Elbow / “Medial Epicondylits” is often initially diagnosed using these simple methods – and little or nothing else, (other than your own description of the symptoms you’re experiencing, of course.)

You’re not likely to get an MRI or a Sonogram, right away, (unless you’ve had some kind of traumatic accident – But that isn’t how Tennis Elbow normally happens.)

You may get a scan eventually, if you don’t improve but that’s typically only A LOT later on, as in 6 months to a year later.

I hope you’re finding this site and this video on the early side, though, and you haven’t already been suffering that long, (or longer!)
