To perfrom the Cozen's test, the therapist stabilizes the patient's elbow with one hand while the patient is asked to pronate the forearm and extend and radially deviate the wrist against manual resistance of the clinician.[1] The test is considered positive if it produces pain or reproduction of other symptoms in the area of the lateral epicondyle.
