Non-operative Throwing Injury Treatment

Description

Repetitive throwing places severe stress on the elbow joint. The throwing motion stretches the tendons and ligaments on the inner side of the elbow and compresses the structures on the outer side. These forces can damage tissue and bone, especially in young athletes whose bones have not fully matured. Depending upon the injury, treatments may include both non-operative and operative action.
