ABSTRACT:
A surgico-athletic device to be worn by an athlete for preventing or reducing inflammation, further injury and the discomfort of tennis elbow including upper and lower inelastic armbands (2, 4) which encircle the arm above and below the elbow is disclosed. There is an element (6) in the form of an inelastic strap connecting the armbands to control the distance between them and to limit the arm from being fully extended. The armbands are made of inelastic padded woven fabric and are of a length sufficient to encircle the arm. Hook and pile securing material (20, 22) permits the armbands to be adjustably tightened around the arm above the biceps and below the elbow. Liners (60) may be provided to prevent skin from being pinched or squeezed by fastening loops (28).
