Elbow Pain Treatment Provided by Experienced Orthopedic Specialists in Houston, TX

Elbow pain treatment at Advanced Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine of Houston, Texas, is provided by a team of highly experienced, sub-specialized professionals. Our orthopedists are board-certified and double-board certified, as well as fellowship-trained in their respective areas of specialty. As a result, we’re able to provide the highest caliber of orthopedic care to individuals with an elbow dislocation, tennis elbow, tendonitis, fractures, pinched nerves, ulnar nerve compression and other common conditions that affect the upper extremities.

At Advanced Orthopaedics, patients can consult with several orthopedic specialists regarding their elbow pain treatment options. A patient’s treatment team may include one or more:

• Orthopedic physicians
• Elbow surgeons
• Physical therapists
• Interventional spine specialists
• Chiropractors
• Sports medicine specialists

Depending on a patient’s specific diagnosis, our team may recommend any combination of treatments, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, trigger point injections, kinesio taping, physical therapy, or minimally invasive surgery. In most situations, we recommend the most conservative therapies first, aiming to alleviate pain and restore function through nonsurgical elbow pain treatment whenever possible. For instance, we are one of the Houston area’s premier providers of Tenex, a minimally invasive, nonsurgical option for removing scar tissue that allows patients to return to their normal activities in as little as one month.

We do recognize, however, that surgery is sometimes necessary, and we strive to improve outcomes, lower the risk of complications and provide the shortest recovery times by using minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. Patients who undergo arthroscopic elbow surgery at Advanced Orthopaedics typically experience less pain and scarring as well as a shorter hospital stay than is typical of conventional elbow surgery.

If you’re ready to learn more about your elbow pain treatment options, both surgical and nonsurgical, contact Advanced Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine of Houston, TX, to schedule an appointment. We welcome patients from all walks of life, from professional athletes to active individuals six years of age and older.
