Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition affecting the outer elbow due to overuse of the forearm muscles. Despite its name, it affects not just athletes but also homemakers, workers, and desk job professionals. It results from repetitive wrist movements, leading to inflammation and degeneration.

Rotator cuff tears are a common cause of shoulder pain, especially in individuals over 50. These tears can result from trauma, repetitive strain, or age-related degeneration. Symptoms include shoulder pain, weakness, and limited range of motion. Early diagnosis via clinical exams and imaging is essential. While many tears can be treated conservatively, severe cases may require arthroscopic repair followed by a structured rehabilitation program.
