Treatment for Elbow and Forearm Pain

Osteoarthritis, Tennis Elbow,  Golfer’s Elbow and more

Elbow pain is common in all ages. It can be from an acute injury causing damage to local tendons, ligaments and nerves. Or, it can be associated with chronic overuse of the hand, wrist or elbow in work or recreational activities. Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is degeneration and pain of the tendons that insert on the outside of the elbow. It is caused by an entrapment neuropathy of the Radial nerve. Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) is typically caused by nerve dysfunction of a group of nerves. It is common for multiple nerves to be irritated in patients with overuse syndromes. Other nerves commonly affected are the musculocutaneous, ulnar and median nerves. All of these nerves can be successfully treated with Perineural Injection Therapy.

“One of the most gratifying aspects of my clinic is seeing a patient walk in with debilitating pain and walk out feeling dramatically improved. Treating acute or chronic pain has been one of the motivating factors for my pursuit in learning Neural Prolotherapy. It is amazing to myself and the patient to have their pain extinguished. I have received more than one hug for treating patients that suffer from this severe pain.”
