Did you know that tight muscles in our forearms can cause pain in our elbows and hands. These muscles are our flexors, extensors and supinator muscles.

These muscles can become irritated when we do a lot of work with our hands, whether that is playing tennis or golf, lifting heavy weights or shovelling a lot of snow. Or just working at our computers.
