A new approach to treat sports injuries with minimally invasive procedures resulting in quick recovery is known as Arthroscopy. It is a procedure that involves an investigation of the area of treatment with the help of a small tool known as an arthroscope. It is a surgical procedure that allows a doctor to see the injured area without making large incisions through the skin and soft tissues, allowing the orthopaedic doctor to diagnose the cause of pain. Orthopaedic surgery repairs the tissues inside and outside the joints.
During the physical examination, your sports medicine doctor may ask about the degree of pain and tenderness in the injured area. Depending upon the suspected injury, your doctor may order an X-ray, Ultrasound, CT scan and MRI to look up for evident fractures and tissue damages.
Treatment depends on the location and severity of the injury.
Elbow Treatments
Elbow injuries are most commonly associated with sports activities. Such as treating tennis elbow, golf elbow,pulled hamstring,boxing fractures, sports hernia etc. The elbow is an exceptionally complex joint-it's made up of the humerus (upper arm bone), the ulna (larger of the lower arm bones), and the radius (the smaller in bone in the lower arm), along with a delicate intersection of muscles, tendons and ligaments.
