Lateral Epicondyalgia - a rant and some talking points

Hey guys! As some of you may or may not know, I am pretty involved in the research community as through Fellowships through both the American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Therapists and the American Academy of Pain Management. I am often tasked with leading and contributing to discussion with my peers about a whole lot of...well, stuff, in order to share thoughts, sources, and opinions for each other's research.

A discussion about lateral epicondylagia (tennis elbow) came up, which is a condition any OT should be pretty familiar with. I had quite a lot to say on it's often underwhelming management by both rehab professionals and doctors based upon our science's poor understanding of its nature. I wanted to share with you the thoughts, as well as answers to a couple questions by my peers, that I had on it.

I'll try to keep these up, if anyone is interested in my rambling. As more questions come in, I'll post them here.
