Hurt the inside of my elbow (medial epicondylitis), what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Conservative care: Steroid injection, splinting, compression sleeve or band, therapy, immobilization, icing and anti-inflamatories are all part of the treatment protocol. Surgery is rarely indicated, relatively new treatment is platelet rich plasma injections to try and stimulate healing.
