Golfer Elbow Surgery
Golfer’s elbow surgery is performed to treat medial epicondylitis, a condition caused by overuse or strain of the tendons on the inner side of the elbow. It commonly occurs due to repetitive wrist and arm movements, leading to pain, tenderness, and reduced grip strength.
When non-surgical treatments like rest, medications, and physiotherapy do not provide relief, surgery may be recommended. The procedure involves removing damaged tissue and repairing the affected tendons to restore normal function and relieve pain.
