Golf Injuries

Being out in the hot sun for four to five hours can leave you badly burned, especially in the sunbelt regions of the U.S. Use a good sunscreen with a rating of at least 45. Another problem can be blisters. Drain with a clean needle, don't peel the excess skin away and cover with a clean bandage.
Elbow tendonitis can be very painful. Make sure you ice the elbow frequently before and even during the round, wear an elbow wrap. Back pain can red-line your game completely. You can find relief for back pain with a very hot shower and anti-inflammatory medications. Walk instead of riding, it will help loosen stiff muscles.
