Conditions We Treat

Elbow Pain Conditions We Treat

Elbow pain has many sources. These are the conditions we diagnose and treat most often.

  • Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis). Pain and weakness on the outer elbow from overuse of the forearm muscles and tendons.

  • Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis). Pain and inflammation on the inner elbow, typically from repetitive wrist and finger motion.

  • Cubital Tunnel Syndrome. Ulnar nerve compression at the elbow causing numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand.

  • Elbow Bursitis. An inflamed fluid-filled sac that causes painful swelling at the tip of the elbow.

  • Elbow Arthritis. Degenerative joint changes that bring pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion.

  • Elbow Sprains and Strains. Ligament and muscle injuries around the elbow, often from sports or a sudden trauma.

Don't Wait It Out

Why Elbow Pain Shouldn't Be Ignored

Untreated elbow problems get harder to treat, and the risk of lasting tendon or nerve damage rises the longer pain lingers.

  • Persistent, worsening pain. Elbow pain that returns or intensifies with activity, even after rest and medication, often signals a structural issue.

  • Declining grip and strength. Chronic elbow problems can reduce grip strength and forearm function, making everyday tasks like carrying bags harder.

  • Reliance on medication. Painkillers mask symptoms without treating the cause, often needing higher doses over time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Elbow Pain

What Is the Best Treatment for Tennis Elbow and Golfer's Elbow?
Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid or joint and tendon injections are common first steps for tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, targeting the irritated tendon directly. Many patients also benefit from physical therapy alongside injections.
Does Insurance Cover Elbow Pain Treatment?
Coverage varies by plan and procedure. Corticosteroid and ultrasound-guided injections are widely covered when medically indicated. Medicare is accepted directly. For all other insurers, our team provides free benefits verification before your visit. We verify first on our insurance verification page.
How Long Does Relief From Elbow Injections Last?
It varies by condition and treatment. Corticosteroid injections often ease inflammation for weeks to a few months, and many patients pair injections with strengthening exercises for longer-lasting results.
Can I Avoid Elbow Surgery With These Treatments?
For many patients with tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, or early arthritis, a structured non-surgical plan may ease pain enough to avoid or delay surgery. Results vary, and severe tendon tears or nerve compression may still need a surgical opinion.
Why Does My Elbow Hurt When I Grip or Lift?
Pain when gripping or lifting often points to tendon overload from tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, or elbow arthritis. Persistent grip pain deserves evaluation rather than waiting it out.
What Causes Numbness or Tingling in the Elbow and Hand?
Numbness or tingling in the ring and little fingers often signals cubital tunnel syndrome, caused by pressure on the ulnar nerve at the elbow. It is worth a professional evaluation, especially if it persists or worsens.
