Elbow Pain
Understanding Elbow Pain
Elbow pain can result from various causes, ranging from overuse injuries and repetitive stress to acute trauma or underlying conditions like arthritis. Whether it’s a dull ache, sharp discomfort, or reduced mobility, elbow pain can significantly impact your ability to perform daily tasks, work, or participate in recreational activities.
At ActiveCare Physiotherapy & Rehab, we specialize in treating elbow pain with a patient-focused, multidisciplinary approach that promotes recovery, restores function, and prevents future issues.
Common Causes of Elbow Pain
Caused by repetitive motions, leading to strain on the tendons in the outer elbow.
Similar to tennis elbow but affecting the tendons on the inner elbow.
Inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that cushions the elbow joint.
- Degeneration of cartilage in the elbow joint, leading to pain and stiffness.
Sprains and Strains: Overstretching or tearing of muscles, tendons, or ligaments around the elbow.
Resulting from trauma or falls.
If you are experiencing persistent elbow pain, seeking professional care is essential to determine the cause and start appropriate treatment.
