The cause of this condition may be overuse of the forearm muscles and muscle strains. Jobs that demand repetitive use of the wrist either than those mentioned may also predispose one's risk for lateral epicondylitis.

Pain killers, physiotherapy and rest may be very essential in managing lateral epicondylitis. However, if conservative management fails, surgery may be required by doctors.
