Cho-Pat Golfer’s Elbow Support

The Cho-Pat Golfer’s Elbow Support is used to provide adjustable upper forearm support for golfer’s elbow, also called medial elbow discomfort. It may help reduce vibration and stress through the forearm muscle group during golf, gripping, lifting, work tasks and repetitive arm activity.

Yes. The Cho-Pat Golfer’s Elbow Support may be used for activity-related medial elbow and upper forearm discomfort from golf, hockey, gripping, lifting or other repetitive arm movements. It is most suitable when discomfort is around the inside of the elbow or upper forearm. If pain is mainly on the outside of the elbow, a tennis elbow support may be more appropriate.

Golfer’s elbow is usually felt around the inside of the elbow and upper forearm. People may notice discomfort when gripping, swinging a golf club, lifting, using tools, shooting a hockey puck or doing repeated wrist and forearm movements.

Golfer’s elbow is usually felt on the inside of the elbow, while tennis elbow is usually felt on the outside of the elbow. Golfer’s elbow is commonly linked with the forearm muscles used for gripping and wrist flexion, while tennis elbow is commonly linked with the forearm muscles used for wrist extension and gripping.

Some basic forearm straps are marketed for both tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow, but Cho-Pat offers separate models because the conditions affect different sides of the elbow. The golfer’s elbow support is a sized strap for medial forearm support, while the current Cho-Pat tennis elbow strap uses a one-size-fits-most targeted pressure pad design.

Measure around the arm just below the elbow. Small fits 8 in to 9.5 in, Medium fits 10 in to 11.5 in, and Large fits 12 in to 14.5 in. If your measurement falls between two sizes, choose the next size up. The support should feel secure but should not cause numbness, tingling, pinching or restricted circulation.

Measure around the arm just below the elbow using a soft measuring tape. Measure the arm that will wear the support and match your measurement to the Small, Medium or Large size chart.

Cho-Pat products are covered against manufacturer defects for 30 days. This coverage applies to defects in materials or workmanship and does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, improper sizing, soiling or damage from regular use. Please inspect the support before use and contact The Physio Store within 30 days of purchase if you believe there is a manufacturer defect.

Hand wash only with warm water and mild detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water and air dry at room temperature. Do not twist or wring the support. Keep the fasteners free of lint and threads.

Speak with a healthcare professional if you have ongoing pain, swelling, numbness, tingling, weakness, trauma, loss of motion or symptoms that are not improving. An elbow support can help provide external support during activity, but it is not a substitute for proper assessment when symptoms persist.
