Golfer’s Elbow
Is golfer’s elbow getting in the way of your perfect swing? The good news is that with proper treatment, patients with golfer’s elbow can successfully reach a full recovery.
Elbow Fracture
A broken elbow (also known as an elbow fracture) is impossible to safely ignore. Causing pain, swelling, and loss of motion, elbow fractures require proper treatment for patients to fully heal.
Elbow Dislocation
The elbow is a complex joint that is extremely vulnerable to injury. Elbow dislocations require proper treatment to heal successfully. Learn about possible causes of elbow dislocations, and how they can properly be treated.
Distal Triceps Tear
A distal triceps tear is a rare condition that causes pain and swelling around the back of the elbow. Fortunately, it can be treated with surgery. Read on to learn more about how distal triceps tears are caused and treated.
Distal Biceps Tear
The distal biceps tendon, which connects the biceps muscle to the forearm, plays a key role in bending the elbow and rotating the forearm. When these functions are taken to an extreme—such as when picking up something heavy—the tendon can rupture or tear.
Radial Head Fracture
While using your hands to break a fall is an instinctive action, the result of doing so can cause an elbow fracture. Oftentimes, elbow fractures involve the radius bone. Read this article to learn about the symptoms of radial head fractures and how they are properly treated.
Tennis Elbow
Despite its name, you don’t have to be a tennis player to develop this condition—although people who suffer from tennis elbow know that this sport does increase the risk.
