The elbow is a complex joint formed by the upper arm bone, referred to as the humerus, and the two bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna. It can thus adapt to wide ranges of movements such as flexion, extension, rotation, pronation, and supination.

One of the best teams with the most experienced orthopedic surgeons and a high-tech facility at Tender Palm Hospital, thereby diagnosing and treating many possible elbow disorders. Some of them are as follows:

Elbow Conditions we treat:

Elbow & Forearm Fracture: A break in one or more of the bones in the elbow region or forearm, often caused by trauma or falls, resulting in severe pain, swelling, and restricted movement.
Stiff Elbow: A condition characterized by limited range of motion in the elbow joint, which can stem from injuries, scar tissue formation, or arthritis, leading to discomfort and difficulty in performing everyday tasks.
Tennis Elbow: Commonly referred to as lateral epicondylitis, this overuse injury results in inflammation of the tendons located on the outer side of the elbow, leading to pain and sensitivity during gripping or lifting tasks.
Golfer's Elbow: Medically referred to as medial epicondylitis, this condition results from repetitive stress on the tendons of the inner elbow, leading to pain and inflammation that can radiate down the forearm.
Biceps Tendon Tear: An injury involving the rupture or strain of the biceps tendon at the elbow, often resulting from sudden heavy lifting or trauma, causing sharp pain, swelling, and weakness in elbow extension.
Chronic Elbow Instability: A condition where the elbow joint experiences repeated episodes of dislocation or instability, often due to ligament laxity or injury, leading to pain and decreased function during activities requiring arm strength.
Olecranon Bursitis: An inflammation of the bursa located at the pointed tip of the elbow, commonly caused by repetitive pressure or trauma, resulting in swelling, tenderness, and restricted elbow movement.
Ulnar Nerve Entrapment: A condition characterized by the compression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, resulting in symptoms like tingling, numbness, and pain in the ring and little fingers, which is often worsened by bending the elbow.
Osteochondritis Dissecans – Elbow: A joint disorder where bone underneath the cartilage of the elbow begins to die due to a lack of blood flow, leading to pain, swelling, and potential joint locking during movement.
Repetitive Motion Disorder: A collection of factors stemming from repeated actions that cause stress and harm to the elbow and forearm, frequently presenting as discomfort, inflammation, and reduced functionality that can significantly affect everyday tasks.
