Elbow

Summit Orthopedics

Common conditions, experts, and specialized services to care for your elbows.

For all that goes on in our elbow, it could almost use its own skeletal traffic cop. It’s a place where three long bones meet in the middle portion of our arm, making it one of the more complex structures in the body. Among its other duties, our elbows allow us to extend and flex our forearms and rotate our hands.

When pain is experienced in the elbow, it typically results from “overuse” injuries, such as repetitive hand, wrist, or arm movements common in sports, hobbies, and jobs. In fact, several elbow injuries are named after sports activities that often produce elbow pain, such as Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow.

Summit Orthopedics provides comprehensive care for elbow injuries using the latest advances in elbow diagnosis, treatment, surgery, and rehabilitation. Whether you’re looking to hit a long drive down the middle of the fairway or simply carry a gallon of milk without pain, we’ll have you there in short time.
