Orthopedic Elbow Specialists in Atlanta
Are you suffering from elbow pain? We have some of Atlanta's best elbow doctors who offer effective treatments to help you find relief.
At Resurgens Orthopaedics, our orthopedic elbow specialists are highly trained. They focus on early diagnosis of elbow pain, which can help manage conditions before they become chronic or severe.
What Causes Elbow Pain?
Our elbows endure a lot of wear and tear from various daily activities, sports, and occupations. Repetitive motions can lead to overuse injuries like tennis elbow or golfer's elbow (you don't have to be a tennis player or golfer to be afflicted by either). There are also common trauma-related injuries like bursitis or hyperextension and chronic conditions like osteoarthritis or cubital tunnel syndrome that can cause pain and limit movement over time.
When Should You See a Doctor For Elbow Pain?
Elbow pain can be a cause for concern due to the elbow's role in many activities. Pain severity can vary greatly depending on the patient, but any persistent discomfort deserves medical attention.
Common signs to seek professional help include:
Constant pain: Pain that lasts weeks despite rest and over-the-counter pain medication.
Swelling: Noticeable swelling around the elbow joint.
Reduced mobility: Difficulty bending or straightening your arm.
Numbness or tingling: Numbness or tingling sensations in your arm or hand.
If you experience these symptoms, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with our elbow specialists in Atlanta.
How We Diagnose Your Elbow Pain
The elbow is a complex mechanism that's at risk of developing a wide variety of conditions. For that reason, we place a high priority on properly diagnosing your specific condition before starting treatment.
Correctly diagnosing the cause of your elbow condition is vital for proper treatment. Our physicians and doctors use top-of-the-line radiography equipment to provide diagnostics and imaging. These include CT scans, EMG, MRI scans, and nerve conduction studies.
Certified technologists operate our equipment. These professionals receive extensive vetting - and recurring training - on the latest imaging techniques and procedures. You may also need to receive electrodiagnostic screening to determine your condition.
Elbow Pain Treatments
Resurgens Orthopaedics offers a comprehensive range of treatment options to address your elbow pain, from non-surgical outpatient solutions to advanced surgical procedures. No matter what kind of treatment you need, you'll get a personalized plan to get you back to enjoying your daily activities.
Non-Surgical Treatments
We believe in exploring all possibilities before considering surgery. Our experienced elbow doctors offer a wide range of non-surgical treatments to manage your elbow pain effectively. These options may include:
Physical therapy: Tailored exercises to improve flexibility, strength, and range of motion.
Medication: Anti-inflammatory drugs and pain relievers to manage discomfort.
Bracing: Supportive wearables to provide stability and reduce pain.
Injections: Corticosteroid injections target inflammation and provide pain relief.
Our elbow specialists collaborate closely with our physical therapists to develop a customized rehabilitation program to help you regain the function of your elbow.
Surgical Treatment for Elbow Pain
More critical elbow conditions or injuries may require a surgical solution. At Resurgens, our elbows doctors will not recommend surgery unless all conservative methods have been exhausted. Surgical procedures can range from minimally-invasive arthroscopic treatments to intensive procedures like Tommy John tendon grafts.
If your elbow physician recommends a surgical solution, you can rest assured knowing that our board-certified, fellowship-trained physicians and surgeons are respected experts in their field.
