Muñequeras, coderas y vendajes funcionales: fashion trend or real injury prevention
Wrist supports, elbow sleeves and functional taping are not just a fashion trend, but they are also not a magic shield. They can meaningfully reduce pain, improve tolerance to load and sometimes lower injury risk, provided they are correctly chosen, fitted and combined with smart training, strength work and medical guidance. Debunking common myths about…

Return to racing after elbow or wrist injury: safe comeback training plan
A safe return to competition after elbow or wrist injury requires three things: full, pain-controlled motion, sport-specific strength and endurance, and the ability to complete match-like workloads on consecutive days without flare-ups. You progress only when pain, swelling and function meet clear benchmarks, always supervised by a sports doctor or physiotherapist. Core recovery principles for…

Elite physiotherapists on common elbow and wrist injuries in pro tennis
If a professional tennis player presents with elbow or wrist pain, then you must quickly distinguish overload from structural injury, then adapt stroke load, strength work and on‑court volume. If symptoms persist or red flags appear, then escalate to imaging, specialist referral and a structured, criteria-based return-to-play pathway. Essential clinician summary: rapid orientation for practice…

Grip and handle thickness: how to choose the right setup to reduce forearm injuries
Choosing the right tennis grip and handle thickness reduces forearm load by matching the handle to your hand size, grip style and injury history. Slightly larger, cushioned grips usually help epicondylitis and forearm pain, while too small or too hard handles increase tendon stress. Adjust gradually, monitoring pain and technique. Critical factors when choosing grip…

Ideal warm-up before a match to specifically protect elbow and wrist
The ideal pre-match warm-up to protect elbow and wrist combines joint mobility, progressive loading and specific strengthening before you hit balls in tennis or pádel. In 10-20 minutes you should move from gentle range-of-motion, to elastic band work, to short, controlled hitting that mimics your match intensity without reaching fatigue. Pre-match protective objectives for elbow…

Latest regenerative treatments for tennis elbow tendon injuries: news and advances
Regenerative treatments for tennis elbow aim to biologically stimulate healing of degenerons tendons rather than only masking pain. In current practice this means platelet-rich plasma (PRP), emerging cell-based therapies, and other biologics integrated with structured rehab. Evidence is promising but heterogeneous, and costs, protocols and indications still vary notably between Spanish clinics. Concise update: what…

Historic match analysis: how an elbow injury changed the game and its legacy
An elbow injury shaping a historic tennis match should be analysed through three lenses: context and stakes, real-time medical and tactical decisions, and long‑term legacy. Compare approaches by how easy they are to apply during play, how much information they require, and the competitive, medical, ethical, and even betting‑related risks they create. Debunking Common Narratives…

Early warning signs in the elbow and wrist every tennis player must know
Early red flags in a tennis player’s elbow and wrist are persistent pain during or after play, stiffness the next morning, loss of power or control, and pain on specific movements such as backhand or serve. Recognising these early, adjusting load, and seeking timely guidance can avoid long lay‑offs. Early Red Flags Every Tennis Player…

Role of volley technique in the development of inner elbow pain in tennis players
Volley technique influences medial elbow pain by changing how valgus stress loads the flexor-pronator muscles, ulnar collateral ligament, and ulnar nerve. Poor spacing, late contact, stiff grip, and excessive wrist use amplify stress. Safer volleys prioritise body positioning, softer hands, and shoulder‑led control, plus progressive rehabilitation and clear return‑to‑play limits. Core links between volley technique…

How court surface (clay, hard, grass) affects elbow and wrist injury risk
Clay, hardcourt and grass courts load the elbow and wrist differently. Clay slows the ball and increases rotational load, hardcourt returns more impact and shock, and grass demands fast, low adjustments. To reduce risk, adapt technique, training and equipment for each surface and respect early pain signs in Spanish playing conditions. Essentials for practice: surface…
