Effective Treatment for Golfer's Elbow by Birmingham Shockwave

Golfers elbow or medial epicondylitis is when the flexor muscles in the forearm put extra tension on the common flexor tendon and thus cause pain and discomfort on the inside point of the elbow.

Starting off as an inflammatory issue, the longer and more chronic it becomes, the more likelihood of microscopic tears developing and a thickening of the tendon.

This further prevents the area from healing. As the area is not necessarily inflamed, it won't respond to anti-inflammatory treatments.

Shockwave can provide effective treatment for golfer's elbow and can reverse these changes, stimulate controled inflammation and, therefore, healing of the tendon.
