Elbow Pain & Discomfort
Elbow pain is most often caused by overuse. Sports or work activities that require repetitive motions of the hand, wrist or arm can result in inflammation of the elbow’s tendons. The discomfort felt is known as tendonitis. In addition to overuse, pain in the elbow can come from a fracture, arthritis, sprains and bursitis (inflammation of the joint bursa).
Home treatment for sore elbows involves resting, applying heat, completing stretches or wearing a brace. It is important to seek treatment from a qualified specialist if your elbow is not responding to treatment or if you have suffered an immediate injury (fracture, break, etc.)
Our providers at OSI can create an effective treatment plan that will help alleviate your ongoing elbow pain. Our team of specialists are attentive to caring for your unique needs, creating a personalized treatment plan that will help you get back to enjoying your daily activities.
