Question
Hi there,

I have developed tennis elbow, golfers elbow, wrist pain and plantar fascitis all at the same time. I don't think it is a coincidence. Could there be an overlying condition causing this?

Thanks so much
Kind regards

Answer
Hi Angela,

Thanks for your question.

All of the musculoskeletal problem you listed are the result of repetitive stress injuries, most likely related to some daily or recreational activity that you perform. Please see the following links for more information on how to prevent and treat these problems:
