Elbow
Is there a better option than elbow surgery?
The Regenexx approach provides a breakthrough, non-surgical alternative that use your body’s own healing agents to treat injuries including elbow osteoarthritis, golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow, UCL tears, and other degenerative problems related to the elbow.
Are You a Regenexx Candidate?Your Alternative to Elbow Surgery
Have you been told that steroid injections or invasive surgery are your only options to treat your elbow pain? Interventional orthopedics provides a non-surgical alternative that uses your own cells to repair the damage.
The elbow can be the site of pain generation for a number of reasons. The most common is tennis or golfer’s elbow, but other issues such as UCL injury or arthritis also occur. Common surgical interventions lead to considerable downtime. Treating elbow injuries with steroid injections reduces inflammation in the site of an injury and causes the degeneration of cells at the site of the injection and over time actually leads to significant worsening of the condition. In addition, we have little solid scientific evidence that elbow surgery helps, but we do know it’s invasive and has the potential of infection, tissue damage, pain and nerve injury.
At Regenexx we invented a new approach to orthopedic care we call Interventional Orthopedics. This approach involves the use of image guidance (flouroscopy and ultrasound) to precisely place high-dose cells from your body directly where they are needed in a specific joint structure. These cells then work in the site of your injury to grow into new, healthy tissue, a process that will only occur if the cells have been placed exactly where they need to go in order to achieve positive outcomes for the patient. This precise approach to orthopedic care can’t be replicated by a surgeon or nurse in a chiropractor’s office.
If you’re experiencing elbow pain, procedures using Regenexx injectates are likely an excellent treatment option. During these outpatient procedures, expert physicians in the licensed Regenexx network use precise image guidance to inject custom concentrations of your body’s natural healing mechanisms into the exact areas of damage to reduce pain and improve function.
