What is a Golfer’s Elbow

When the tendons of the forearm attached to the bony prominence experience pain, you may be dealing with a condition called a golfer’s elbow. It is also called medial epicondylitis, and injury or irritation to the tendons is responsible for this condition.

You may develop a golfer’s elbow due to sports, improper techniques while weight lifting or throwing, or due to the nature of your occupation. Your tendons might become painful and swollen, but our golfer’s elbow treatment in Houston will cater to your needs.

Treating Golfer’s Elbow

We provide comprehensive treatment for golfer’s elbows tailoring it according to our patient’s requirements. You can count on us to provide reliable and effective solutions for your elbow condition.

  1. Conservative Methods: We will start with non-surgical treatments designed to relieve your elbow pain and restore its health. The treatment plan might include resting, using elbow wraps, mild massage, medications, stretching exercises, applying moist heat, and more. We might also suggest limiting activities that worsen the symptoms.
  2. Surgical Treatment: Sometimes, the conservative treatment options fail to resolve the elbow condition. When this happens, and the symptoms persist for 6 to 12 months, we suggest surgical treatment. During the surgery, our specialist will remove the diseased tissue surrounding your inner elbow, which improves blood supply to the affected area and promotes healing. Our golfer’s elbow treatment in Houston will alleviate the symptoms!

Reasons to Trust Us for the Treatment

You can trust us for treatment, as we are dedicated to providing quality care to our patients. We will review your medical history and conduct a proper physical examination of your elbow joint to provide adequate treatment. We will also conduct X-rays and rule out potential causes of pain, making sure to get to the bottom of the problem.

We proceed with care and incorporate advanced techniques in our golfer’s elbow treatment in Houston. Our goal is to provide you with a comfortable and effective treatment plan that achieves the desired outcomes.

Patient Reviews

The staff is very professional and friendly. Dr. Cusick takes his time in explaining and going over any issues or concerns. Have not done much since the shoulder surgery for two months but I have not experienced ANY PAIN.

Tom Conklin

This is Iva Phillips. Very helpful visit today. Will be starting Therapy. Dr. Cusick took time to explain my problem and ways to try to prevent surgery.

Gilmer Phillips

Dr Cusick and his aide were very helpful with their assessment of my problem. They gave me alternative solutions to consider and showed me X-rays of my shoulder. I was surprised that we got in after a short wait. They took several X-rays and counseled with me in a very efficient manner. I was in and out in much less time than I had anticipated!

Jack Roland

AMAZING! Dr Cusick listened to me talk about my symptoms and pain. He talked to me rather than just look at my images. Later, he explained the images to me and together we agreed on a plan Of Action. 10/10

Peffley Nazlin

Thank you for a pleasant experience! The front office staff as well as the medical staff made me feel like family. They answered all my questions and I didn't feel rushed. The wait time was also less than 5 minutes of my scheduled appointment.

Very enjoyable experience, the people are super nice and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend Dr Cusick and his team

Robert Peeler

If this surgery is a little frightening, I understand. I interviewed doctors until I was satisfied that the one I chose was right for me. The pain and restriction of movement in my left shoulder was debilitating. Dr. Michael Cusick is totally committed to his trade. Complete total reverse shoulder replacement.

Kyle Powell

Don't get me wrong there was hiccups and waiting to have surgery seemed like forever but Dr. Cusick, his office staff and the hospital staff especially has been amazing. They went above and beyond to get my surgery approved so we wouldn't have to put it off longer. Dr. Cusick keeps a positive outlook even at times...

Kathy Zenker
