How to understand elbow protection correctly

2. Restrict activities and protect the injured parts. At the same time, do not obstruct the normal movement of the hand

Friends who play tennis, badminton and table tennis all know that after a fierce match, when playing backhand, their elbows will hurt, even if they wear elbow protectors. Experts tell us that this is commonly known as "tennis elbow". Tennis elbow refers to the moment of hitting the ball, the wrist joint is not braked, there is no wrist lock, the extensor of the forearm is excessively pulled, causing damage to the attachment point. The wrist is not protected. There is an excessive bending action when hitting the ball, which has a greater impact on the elbow joint.

So when playing tennis, if you feel pain in your elbow joint, you'd better wear Wrist Support while wearing elbow support. And when you choose elbow support, you'd better choose the one without elasticity. If it is with high elasticity , it will not play a protective role. And when wearing it, it should not be too tight or too loose. Too tight will affect blood circulation, and too loose will not play a protective role.

This kind of elbow support is especially suitable for rheumatism, rheumatoid and Other joint patients. Its thickness and hardness are higher than that of sports elbow support. It pays more attention to keeping warm, and has higher requirements for perspiration and ventilation. This kind of elbow support is made of neoprene with better warmth retention, strong perspiration and air permeability. So this kind of elbow protector is also used for adjuvant treatment.
