What are the causes of elbow pain?

Elbow pain, specifically tendinitis, is extremely common. This again, is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions we see at our clinic every day. It can cause significant pain and disability. Most cases of elbow pain and injury are triggered by a combination of overuse, repetitive strain, occupational strain, injury (or trauma), and inflammation to the structures of the elbow or wrist. Severity varies, but below are some examples of common causes of wrist or elbow pain and injury.

Many cases of musculoskeletal pain and injury can heal well with the correct care and advice. Many cases of wrist and elbow pain we see here at our Birmingham and Solihull clinics can be dealt with and treated successfully with conservative treatment modalities. However, If patients do not respond adequately to conservative treatment or the problem is getting worse, consideration for injection therapy may be discussed. At the Dynamic Clinic we have built ourselves a very good reputation of delivering high quality regenerative treatments for elbow pain. The most popular by far being P-PRP injection treatment, in which patients travel from all over the UK to see us for treatment (further information can be found on the ORTHOBIOLOGICS link below). If patients are showing signs of advanced injury or disease then we may discuss the option for an MRI scanning, to get diagnostic clarity of what it is that may be causing the issue. 

​

If a cause of your wrist or elbow pain is suspected to be of an inflammatory or rheumatological cause, then you may be asked to provide a blood test and lab panel to check for raised inflammatory markers - ESR, CRP and TNFa, and maybe immunological makers.

Referral for Specialist Imaging or Private MRI Scans

At the Dynamic Clinic we can provide ultrasound imaging to look for signs of tissue damage and inflammation. However, occanionally we may require a more in-depth analysis. If a private MRI scan is considered, we will put in a referral to our local Imaging Centre in Solihull. You will then be contacted and booked in within 5-10 days. Following your scan, the report will be completed by our colleague Dr David Beale (Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist). This report will then come back to the Dynamic Clinic and will we then discuss with you then best course of treatment for your compliant. 

In some cases we may refer to our trusted colleagues Mr Tom Lawrence (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon) or Mr Gunaratnam Shyamalan (Consultant Hand Surgeon) for surgical opinion. 

Elbow Pain Assessment

To help with your wrist or elbow pain, firstly we need to know what may be causing the issue. To do this we have to provide a thorough wrist and elbow pain and injury assessment.​​ If you have been having wrist or elbow pain which does not appear to be getting better or is impacting on your function, it is recommended to see a musculoskeletal professional. Here, they will be able to provide a full assessment, gain information to make a diagnosis and provide the best treatment and management of your condition to get you back to full function again and pain free. At the Dynamic Clinic, elbow conditions like tendinitis (golfers and tennis elbow) are extremely common and a compliant we see many times, every day. Our experienced musculoskeletal clinician, Mr Adam Whatley will be able to provide assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of wrist and elbow pain conditions from sport injuries, performance activities through to the management and rehabilitation of chronic conditions.
