Elbow

Pain in the elbow often results from accidents, overuse or degenerative diseases. The orthopedic specialists at CORE diagnose and treat a variety of elbow conditions, including:

• Arthritis
• Bursitis
• Sprains
• Dislocations
• Fractures
• Torn ligaments

If you suffer from elbow pain, we will work with you to diagnose the problem and devise a treatment plan than may first include nonsurgical options such as rest, physical therapy, injections or over-the-counter medications to relieve pain and inflammation. But, if your symptoms persist or get worse, surgical intervention may be the best option.

At CORE, we specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques that decrease pain and recovery time. Most of our procedures are laparoscopic, resulting in smaller incisions, minimal blood loss and less scarring. Types of surgical procedures for the elbow include:

• Diagnostic exploration
• Bone spur removal
• Joint capsule loosening
• Cartilage repair
• Repair of damaged tendons
