Elbow Services at Melbourne Orthopaedic Group
Elbow injuries and conditions can significantly impact daily function, making it difficult to perform basic tasks. At Melbourne Orthopaedic Group, we provide expert diagnosis and treatment for a variety of elbow issues, from sports injuries to degenerative conditions.
Understanding Elbow Conditions
The elbow is a complex joint that allows for both bending and rotation, making it vulnerable to injuries from repetitive use, trauma, or degenerative changes. Conditions such as tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, ligament tears, and arthritis can cause pain, stiffness, and weakness.
Elbow Treatments
Our approach to elbow care includes both non-surgical and surgical options, tailored to each patient’s needs:
- Non-Surgical Therapy: Physiotherapy, bracing, and targeted injections to relieve pain and improve function.
- Arthroscopic Elbow Surgery: Minimally invasive procedures for ligament and tendon repairs, reducing recovery time and post-operative discomfort.
- Elbow Replacement Surgery: For patients with severe arthritis or significant joint damage, elbow replacement can restore mobility and relieve pain.
