When Elbow Pain Doesn't Improve
Most elbow problems improve with the right rehabilitation. However, if your symptoms persist or the diagnosis isn’t clear, further assessment may be helpful.
Our Physiotherapy + Ultrasound Assessment combines an expert physiotherapy assessment with point-of-care ultrasound for selected elbow conditions, helping assess structures such as the common extensor tendon, common flexor tendon, collateral ligaments, distal biceps tendon, triceps tendon and bursae where clinically appropriate.
