    Golf Arm

    Cause

    This condition is due to an over-use of the flexor muscle in the lower arm (wrist benders) and is a chronic inflammation of those muscles where they attach to the inside of the elbow.

    Treatment

    The muscles can be released through a small surgical incision. This treatment does not cause any loss of function. The elbow will be immobilized in a cast for two weeks. Dissolvable sutures will be used so suture removal will not be necessary.

    Hospital Admission:         Outpatient 

    Recuperation Time:          2 weeks 

    Post Surgery

    Physiotherapy is helpful in severe cases.
