Tennis Elbow Pain
Tennis elbow, also known as Lateral epycondilitis, causes pain from the elbow into the forearm and wrist and normally worsens when lifting or gripping things. The pain caused by tennis elbow will make the arm feel weak and hampers daily activities, even the simplest and most common ones like making a cup of coffee or opening a door can be extremely painful and irritating.
Golfers Elbow Pain
Golfers elbow is known as medial epicindylitis too, is caused by damage to tendons and muscles that control the fingers and wrists. Repetitive stress and forceful wrist and finger motions are typically the cause of the damage, and is result of a improper warm up, lifting, throwing, hitting or conditioning.

Can Surgery Be Avoided With Chiropractic Care?
There are more than 200 types of arthritis, one of the most common is rheumatoid which affects the joints and many times is caused by an infection or incident that triggers the condition. In this type of arthritis the immune system attacks its own tissues and starts the inflammatory process. The first symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis can begin as pain, swelling, and stiffness in one or more of the same joints in both sides of your body. They can start suddenly or more commonly, over a longer period of time. In addition to these symptoms, the patients can’t sleep well due the pain and stiffness in the joints, and they often experience fatigue, weight loss, and a general discomfort such as flu-like symptoms.
