Dealing with Tennis Elbow After Using Babolat Air Veron

padelfan

Played with a Babolat Air Veron and now dealing with painful tennis elbow. Any suggestions on overcoming it? Consider acupuncture, steroid injection, or just rest.

Also, looking for racket recommendations to replace the Babolat and avoid future issues. Would a thicker grip help or should I consider a different racket altogether? Love the power but not the pain.

padelfan Tennis Elbow? Sorry about that. That is like your wrist extensors are getting overworked. Just keep moving but ease up on the wrist exercises – maybe cut back on the padel for a bit.

Try using a pill or gel, some chill wrist strengthening, a tennis elbow strap, and throw in some ice. Injections are the last resort and not always the superhero. Just sharing info, not playing doctor.

By the way, I am not a Padel expert myself, and can't comment on the racket issue.

Ditch the racket-switching advice – it's a band-aid. Weak muscles are the culprit; time to flex those wrists and arm muscles. Check this: eccentric muscle training works wonders. Acupuncture and steroids? Nah, they're just masking the real deal.

Seriously, folks playing 3-4 times a week, hit the light strength training and post-game stretches. Static stretching before a game?
