Your Treatment, Your Way

What is elbow pain treatment?

Elbow pain treatment with Dr. Kofi begins with a thorough examination to determine the cause of your pain. This could be from tendons, ligaments, nerves, or joint issues. Once the problem is identified, treatment may include bracing, therapy, injections, or surgery, as needed. We provide a straightforward plan that works for your life, without unnecessary steps or confusion.

Comprehensive Evaluation

We use advanced imaging and hands-on assessments to define the true source of pain or dysfunction.

Non-Surgical Management

Many patients improve with injections, activity adjustments, or splinting. Physical therapy and ergonomic changes are also key tools in recovery.

Surgical Solutions (When Needed)

If surgery is the right path, we use minimally invasive techniques whenever possible-offering long-term relief and targeted results.
