Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis): Tennis elbow is a common condition characterized by pain on the outer part of the elbow. It typically results from repetitive strain or overuse of the forearm muscles, often due to activities that involve gripping or twisting motions. The pain stems from inflammation or microtears in the tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis): Golfer's elbow is similar to tennis elbow but occurs on the inner side of the elbow. It involves pain and inflammation of the tendons attached to the medial epicondyle of the humerus. This condition often arises from repetitive stress or overuse of the forearm muscles, especially those involved in wrist flexion and gripping. Despite the name, it is not exclusive to golfers and can affect anyone engaged in activities that strain the forearm.

Sciatica pain, often simply referred to as sciatica, is a common type of pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs. It typically occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed or irritated, leading to symptoms such as sharp, shooting pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the affected leg. Sciatica can be caused by various factors, including a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or even muscle spasms in the buttocks. The pain intensity can vary from mild to severe, and it may worsen with activities like sitting, standing, or walking. Treatment options for sciatica pain often include a combination of rest, physical therapy, medications, such as anti-inflammatories or muscle relaxants, and in some cases, epidural steroid injections or surgery may be recommended.

Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder, characterized by low bone mass, that causes a structural deterioration of the bone. The resulting low bone mass and low bone quality increases the risk of a fracture–even in cases where patients report no or minimal traumatic events leading up to the break. Osteoporosis is often left undiagnosed, until patients present with a fracture, because it is an asymptomatic disease. Learn more about who is at risk, other ways to diagnose it, and what can be done to manage and maintain bone mass.
