Your Orthobiologic Options For Elbow Tendon Pain

Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow often make simple tasks difficult. Actions like opening a door or shaking a hand can cause discomfort. Patients frequently try high-dose steroid injections or invasive surgery to manage these symptoms. However, studies suggest these common treatments may impact healthy tissue over time. Research also indicates that surgical interventions do not always yield better results than non-surgical care. 

Physicians in the licensed Regenexx network at Pain Doctors Medical offer a different option. They perform outpatient procedures that do not require a hospital stay. These procedures use the patient’s own blood or bone marrow to create a concentrated injectate of natural healing agents.

This approach differs from typical options because of the lab processing. Physicians can create customized concentrations of cells based on the specific needs of the injury. The processing allows for mixtures that are much more potent than standard bedside machines. The physician then delivers this customized mixture to the damaged tendon using image-guidance. This precise placement is designed to support the body’s repair process. The goal is to help reduce pain and help improve function.
