Common causes for elbow pain

Elbow Sprain / Strain

This occurs when the ligaments, muscles, or tendons in the elbow are overstretched or torn due to unexpected overstretching of the tissues. It can cause swelling, pain, and difficulty moving the elbow.

  • Little Leaguer’s Elbow: A common overuse injury experienced in adolescent baseball/softball. The effects of repetitive overhand throwing cause the inner elbow growth plate to become inflamed, resulting in pain while throwing or immediately after.
  • Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) sprain: The ligaments on the inner side of your elbow are stretched or torn due to a throwing motion. It is a common injury in baseball players.
Tendinopathy

This diagnosis describes any problem with a tendon, including disease, injury, or disorder. The most common types of injuries to a tendon include tendonitis and tendinosis.

  • Tennis elbow: This occurs due to inflammation in the tendons of the outer elbow (lateral epicondyle). It is commonly associated with tasks that involve gripping, lifting, or twisting the forearm, such as holding a tennis racket, paintbrush, or hammer.
  • Golfer’s elbow: It is similar to tennis elbow, except the pain is on the inside of the elbow due to the overuse of muscles that flex the wrist and fingers.
Arthritis

This is a condition in which the joint becomes inflamed, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis can all affect the elbow joint.

Nerve injuries

Several nerves run through the elbow to the forearm and hand, and nerve injuries can result from traction and compression due to forceful, repetitive stresses on the elbow joint.

Bursitis

This is a condition in which the bursa, a small fluid-filled sac near the elbow joint, becomes inflamed and swollen. It can be caused by repetitive pressure or a direct blow to the elbow. Symptoms may include pain, swelling, and limited range of motion.

Elbow fractures (Olecranon)

Falls are the most common causes of upper extremity fractures, including elbow fractures, resulting in stiffness, weakness, and persistent pain.

I have been working with Jimmy for over 1 year now and am overly pleased with my outcomes. Through my post-op rehab and recovery phase, I trusted Jimmy that he’d get my back to my sport.

I came to Jimmy 9 months out of ACL surgery after what I would describe as very mediocre PT at a different facility for the majority of my rehab process. He tested my strength, created an in-depth program specific to me, and since then my knee has been feeling so much better and I am getting so much stronger! Wish…

I was in a bad car wreck over a decade ago which caused me to fracture vertebrae’s in my lower back. I was recommended to do the typical physical therapy procedure, which at the time helped but in the long haul, my back is still very messed up. I took a chance on Dr. Jimmy Rowland cause I was hearing…

Jimmy and Jordan have helped me tremendously during my offseason with my baseball training and rehab. Any injury I have had they had put 100% of their time and effort into getting me back out there to perform at my best. They know their stuff and are great humans too!

– Patrick Ledet

Jimmy and Jordan are great PT/ DC team! They helped me with specific movements daily, that I could transfer onto the field and see the difference. The work was always intentional w/ Jimmy and Jordan!

I’m a professional football player and hands down Jimmy and Jordan are, in my opinion, the best at what they do! The knowledge and professional background they have is unmatched. I highly recommend them!
