But just last month, my uncle felt that when he was playing, his hands began to be disobedient, and it was very difficult to lift them up. Went to the hospital to take a film, the doctor said it was humeral epicondylitis. Let's take a look at the following.

How is humeral epicondylitis treated

First: the doctor said that this is not a serious bone disease, commonly known as tennis elbow, which often appears in people who play tennis or golf. As long as after a period of nursing, generally can heal themselves. The doctor reminded his uncle that he could not play ball games or do any strenuous exercise during this period of time.

Second: in addition to the use of drugs, acupoint massage is the best way to treat humeral epicondylitis, so my uncle also went to the old Chinese medicine for acupoint massage every day. Now my uncle's symptoms have almost disappeared and he is recovering very well.

Third: after going back, my uncle will apply hot compress to the wound every day, and use some analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs to speed up the improvement of the wound, which can also alleviate the symptoms.
