TThe elbow, a pivotal joint in upper limb function, is susceptible to a range of issues causing pain and limitation. Conditions such as tennis and golfer's elbow affect tendons, while bursitis and osteoarthritis contribute to inflammation and degeneration. Injuries like fractures and dislocations disrupt stability and mobility. Nerve entrapments and synovitis add complexity to symptoms. Management includes rehabilitation post-surgeries and addressing underlying causes, such as muscle imbalances and overuse, through physical therapy and ergonomic adjustments to alleviate pain and restore elbow function.
