Elbow pain can significantly impact our daily lives, hindering our ability to perform simple tasks and enjoy activities. The complexity of the elbow joint, consisting of bones, tendons, and muscles, makes it susceptible to various conditions that can lead to chronic pain. At Atlas Medical Center, we understand the importance of finding effective solutions for elbow pain without resorting to invasive surgeries. Our regenerative treatments, such as stem cell therapy and PRP, activate your body’s ability to heal from within.
Distal Biceps Tendon Partial Tear
One of the potential causes of elbow pain is a distal biceps tendon partial tear. This condition occurs when the tendon connecting the biceps muscle to the forearm bone is partially ruptured or strained. Typically, this injury is the result of sudden, forceful movements or repetitive overuse of the elbow joint. Individuals who engage in activities that require repetitive lifting or intense gripping are more prone to experiencing this condition.
A distal biceps tendon partial tear can cause localized pain and discomfort in the front of the elbow, as well as weakness in the affected arm. In some cases, there may be noticeable swelling or bruising around the elbow. It is important to seek medical attention if these symptoms occur, as a proper diagnosis is essential for appropriate treatment. Atlas Medical Center offers conservative, regenerative treatments to stimulate natural healing.
Golfer’s Elbow
Golfer’s elbow, medically known as medial epicondylitis, is a common condition that can result in elbow pain. Despite its name, this condition can affect individuals who participate in activities beyond golf, such as racket sports, weightlifting, or activities that involve repetitive hand and wrist movements. Golfer’s elbow occurs when the tendons on the inside of the elbow become inflamed or damaged due to repetitive stress or overuse.
The primary symptom of golfer’s elbow is pain and tenderness on the inner side of the elbow, which may radiate down the forearm. Gripping or twisting motions can exacerbate the pain. Some individuals may also experience weakness or difficulty in gripping objects. Atlas Medical Center uses cutting-edge diagnostic techniques to identify the root cause of golfer’s elbow and offer personalized treatments that restore optimal mobility.
Lateral Epicondylitis
Lateral epicondylitis, commonly known as tennis elbow, also leads to elbow pain and discomfort. Despite its name, this condition is not exclusive to tennis players and can affect anyone who engages in repetitive arm motions or activities that strain the tendons on the outer side of the elbow. These activities may include painting, gardening, or repetitive computer mouse use.
The primary symptom of lateral epicondylitis is pain and tenderness on the outer side of the elbow. This pain may radiate down the forearm and worsen with gripping or lifting objects. Individuals with this condition may also experience weakness in the affected arm. Lateral epicondylitis can be debilitating, impacting one’s ability to perform daily tasks.
