Tennis Elbow

Non-Surgical Treatments

Majority of the Patients (Approximately 80% to 95%) who are suffering are treated with non- surgical Treatment. The first step toward recovery is to give your arm proper rest. Usage of arm should be restricted only to some things. Usage of Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines like aspirin or ibuprofen and Steroid Injections like Cortisone reduces pain and swelling. Specific exercises are helpful for strengthening the muscles of the forearm. Using a brace centered over the back of your forearm may also help relieve symptoms of tennis elbow. This can reduce symptoms by resting the muscles and tendons.  Shock wave therapy sends sound waves to the elbow. These sound waves create "microtrauma" that promote the body's natural healing processes.
