Elbow pain physio Frankston
Elbow symptoms with gripping, lifting or work
Gripping tools, lifting a bag, working at a desk or returning to sport may all place demands on a sore elbow. Tell Ash which tasks set it off. He’ll check the movements and loads involved, then work out advice and exercises with those tasks in mind.
What your elbow assessment may include
Symptoms may involve a tendon, joint, ligament, bursa or nearby nerve, and pain can sometimes be referred from the neck. Ash will discuss how the problem started and assess relevant elbow, wrist, shoulder and neck movement, strength and load tolerance.
Treatment and return to activity
Your plan may include education, temporary changes to aggravating tasks, hands-on physiotherapy, mobility work and progressive strengthening of the elbow, wrist or shoulder. Dry needling may be considered as one part of physiotherapy when suitable for you and with your consent.
