Elbow Dislocation
Epicondylitis
- Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). Inflammation of the tendons on the outside part of the elbow.
- Medical epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow). Inflammation of the tendons on the inside part of the elbow.
Both types present with the same symptoms. Symptoms are dramatically reduced when an accurate diagnosis is made and an effective treatment plan is prescribed. Patients should make an appointment with a Carolina Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical Associates’ (CONA) as soon as symptoms present.
Tennis Elbow
Elbow Bursitis
Elbow bursitis is inflammation of the elbow bursa—a fluid filled sac that cushions the elbow joint. An appointment with a Carolina Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical Associates (CONA) elbow specialist should be made when elbow bursitis symptoms are experienced.
Ulnar Nerve Entrapment
Ruptured Biceps Tendon
The biceps is a long muscle that helps flex the arm. One of the biceps tendons inserts on the elbow. A biceps tendon rupture occurs when the tendon is torn from its insertion point. The injury is rare but serious. An appointment with a Carolina Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical Associates’ (CONA) elbow specialist should be made as soon as possible.
