✅Mill’s Test
✅ Maudsley's Test
✅Valgus Stress Test
✅Varus Stress Test
✅Modified Milking Manoeuvre

Big thanks to Christina for being the patient and Mike for filming🤝

These tests are commonly used in clinical assessment to help build a picture of what may be contributing to elbow pain, whether that's related to tendon or ligament.

Important to remember:
• No single test confirms a diagnosis
• Tests should always be interpreted alongside a thorough subjective history
• Movement assessment (AROM, PROM, MMT), palpation, and clinical reasoning are key.

Lateral elbow tests (Cozen's, Mill's, Maudsley's)
are often used when assessing lateral epicondylalgia (tennis elbow), while medial and ligamentous tests (valgus stress, modified milking manoeuvre) can help assess UCL involvement.

Technique and positioning can vary depending on the structure being assessed and clinician preference, so findings should always be interpreted in context.

These are particularly relevant in active populations and athletes where load through the elbow is high (e.g. racket sports, throwing, gym-based training).

If you're a physio student, healthcare professional, or just interested in how the elbow is assessed, this one's for you.
