Buffalo’s Guide to Non-Surgical Relief for Chronic Elbow Pain

Whether it's pain when gripping, lifting, or just reaching for your coffee mug — elbow pain can quietly take over your day.

What starts as a small ache can turn into sharp pain during work, while golfing, or doing basic tasks like brushing your teeth or opening a door.

At Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we meet with people every week who’ve been dealing with elbow pain for months (or years) — and are finally ready to find a solution that doesn’t involve pills, shots, or surgery.

What Causes Chronic Elbow Pain?

The elbow is a surprisingly complex joint, with tendons, ligaments, and nerves all passing through a small space. Overuse or repetitive motion can irritate these tissues and lead to conditions like:

• Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
• Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)
• Tendonitis or bursitis
• Referred pain from shoulder or wrist issues
• Post-injury inflammation that never healed fully

The most common sign? A nagging, sharp, or throbbing pain that returns with simple movement — gripping, twisting, or extending your arm.

Why Typical Treatments Often Fail

Here’s the problem many of our patients face:
❌ They’ve tried resting the arm — and the pain always comes back.
❌ They’ve used braces, creams, or over-the-counter meds — but only get temporary relief.
❌ Some even had cortisone injections — only to have pain flare up again months later.

That’s because these strategies often treat the symptom, not the underlying issue — inflammation, tissue strain, or mobility restriction.

How We Help Buffalo Patients Break the Cycle

At BAJC, our focus is on helping your elbow move, function, and feel better long term — without masking the pain or rushing to surgery.

We evaluate:
✔️ How your elbow is actually moving
✔️ Where the tension, irritation, or breakdown is happening
✔️ How surrounding joints (like your shoulder or wrist) are contributing
✔️ What daily habits might be re-aggravating the issue

Once we understand the root cause, we build a plan that restores function and reduces inflammation at its source.

Don’t Let Elbow Pain Linger Another Year

Whether it’s been 3 months or 3 years, it’s not too late to improve.
Even small changes in how your elbow moves and heals can create big shifts in how you feel.
