Golfer’s Elbow – Medial Epicondylitis
Golfer’s Elbow – Medial Epicondylitis Treatment and Surgery in Wayne & Paramus, NJ
The humerus of the upper arm and the radius and ulna of the forearm meet to form the elbow joint. The elbow is surrounded by many different ligaments, vessels, nerves, muscles, and tendons. Several tendons can contribute to the pain experienced by a patient with golfer’s elbow. These tendons originate on the inside of the elbow on the medial epicondyle and are in charge of flexing the fingers and turning the palm up. When these tendons experience a significant amount of force and repetitive strain they can develop microtears that lead to golfer’s elbow. Golfer’s may be predisposed to developing this condition, but it is very common in many climbing athletes and baseball players as well.
