Hi, "The --------- treatment of epicondilitis is....... " a- initial Means 'first'. b-prior Means 'before' or 'previous to' something else.

  • Hi, "The --------- treatment of epicondilitis is.......
  • " a- initial Means 'first'.
  • b-prior Means 'before' or 'previous to' something else.
  • I'd say you need 'initial'.
  • I would think that the initial treatment would simply be to stop playing tennis, or whatever activity has caused the condition.

In English, "tennis elbow" is "epicondylitis" rather than "epicondilitis".
