Elbow Pain

Picture
The elbow takes a huge amount of stress. Our incredibly mobile shoulders, and jaw-droppingly dexterous hands, both require a lot of stabilisation from the surrounding muscles, and it is to the arm and forearm bones (the humerus, radius and ulna, see image on right) that many attach. 

​A large number of the muscles that act on the wrist and hand, for example, attach to the medial and lateral epicondyles (see image on the left).  When these muscles and their tendons get overworked, where they attach to the bone can become sore and inflamed.  This is called a medial or lateral epicondylitis, or (more commonly) golfer's and tennis elbow, respectively.

Picture
These can be very painful and debilitating conditions, as anyone who has suffered from them can attest.

Related conditions include those under the umbrella term of RSI, or repetitive strain injuries. Osteopaths do not really like that term, to be perfectly honest, as it does not give much in the way of useful information about what has been injured, or by what repetitive action.   
​Your osteopath will work with you to help determine exactly what structures are involved, in what activities, and help you ways to minimise any further aggravation while treating you to help speed up the resolution time of your condition.

These issues often respond well to dry needling.
