Elbow Pain Options

Active Life Physical Medicine Offers Non-Surgical Elbow Care

If you’ve been advised that your only choices for addressing elbow pain are steroid injections or surgery, there may be another option. At Active Life Physical Medicine in Phoenix, procedures using interventional orthobiologics may help support your body’s natural ability to heal using your own cells.

Elbow pain may stem from a range of conditions. While tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow are among the most common, others, such as UCL injuries or arthritis, may also contribute. Surgical interventions often involve extended recovery periods. Though steroid injections are commonly used, they may accelerate tissue breakdown over time and do not address underlying issues. Surgical procedures may present risks such as infection, nerve irritation, or soft tissue disruption, and research has shown limited long-term evidence of benefit for many elbow surgeries.

The Regenexx approach is a specialized process known as Interventional Orthopedics. Using advanced imaging techniques such as fluoroscopy and ultrasound, physicians in the licensed Regenexx network precisely deliver customized concentrations of your body’s own healing components to the affected areas of the elbow joint. This level of precision helps ensure targeted application that cannot typically be achieved in standard clinical settings.

For individuals seeking alternatives to surgery, procedures using Regenexx injectates may offer a less invasive option to reduce pain and improve elbow function. These outpatient procedures are performed by physicians in the licensed Regenexx network, who are trained and credentialed to prepare and deliver Regenexx injectates using patented lab protocols.
