Common Elbow & Wrist Sports Injuries
Expert diagnosis and treatment for elbow and wrist conditions affecting athletic performance
Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
The most common elbow problem in racquet sports and weightlifting. This condition causes pain on the outside of your elbow when gripping or lifting. Despite its name, tennis elbow affects golfers, weightlifters, and anyone who uses repetitive arm motions.
Our Approach
Most cases respond excellently to conservative treatment including targeted injections and technique modification. Minimally invasive surgery reserved for persistent cases.
Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)
Pain on the inside of your elbow from repetitive gripping and wrist flexion. Common in golfers, baseball players, and climbers. Often develops gradually from overuse and poor technique.
Our Approach
Conservative treatment highly effective with proper biomechanical correction. Advanced arthroscopic techniques available when conservative measures insufficient.
Elbow Ligament Injuries
The ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) - the main stabilizing ligament of the elbow - can tear from repetitive throwing motions. This is the "Tommy John" injury that affects baseball pitchers and other throwing athletes.
Our Approach
Minor injuries often heal with conservative care. Complete tears may require advanced reconstruction techniques to restore throwing ability.
Wrist Impingement
Occurs when bones in your wrist joint pinch soft tissues during movement. Common in gymnasts, tennis players, and anyone who puts repetitive stress on bent wrists.
Our Approach
Arthroscopic wrist surgery through tiny keyhole incisions can remove impinging tissue and restore normal wrist motion.
Scaphoid Fractures
A common wrist fracture that's often missed initially. The scaphoid bone has poor blood supply, making healing challenging without proper treatment. Affects athletes who fall on outstretched hands.
Our Approach
Early detection and proper immobilization crucial. Advanced surgical techniques ensure proper healing and prevent long-term arthritis.
TFCC Tears (Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex)
This cartilage structure stabilizes the wrist joint. Tears cause pain on the pinky side of your wrist and clicking sensations. Common in racquet sports and gymnastics.
Our Approach
Arthroscopic repair through minimal incisions preserves wrist stability and function for athletic activities.
