Depending on the severity of the condition, yes. If the condition becomes recurrent or develops into a chronic pathology - you might then need to have an injection (a corticosteroid injection or PRP) to improve your symptoms.

Physiotherapy is helpful in treating some of the underlying causes of tennis elbow.

Mild cases yes. The moderate to severe I’ve had to use PRP or stem cells to treat them PT

Yes, with the help of anti-inflammatory meds and counterforce bracing.
