Elbow Pain

Autoimmune maladies can present a daunting task in terms of their identification and treatment. Such disorders arise when the immune system erroneously assaults healthy cells within the body, which results in inflammation and the detriment of tissue and organs. At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we are well-versed in the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus, and psoriatic arthritis.

RA is a persistent autoimmune disease that predominantly targets the joints. Its symptoms include agony, rigidity, and swelling within the joints, particularly those in the hands, wrists, and feet. RA can also prompt weariness, fever, and a loss of weight.

Lupus is yet another autoimmune malady that can afflict diverse bodily systems, including the skin, joints, and organs. Its symptoms may encompass a rash on the face, joint pain, weariness, and fever.

Psoriatic arthritis is a class of arthritis that can develop in certain individuals who have psoriasis, a skin disorder that causes red, scaly patches. Psoriatic arthritis symptoms may include joint pain, rigidity, and swelling, as well as nail alterations and weariness.

At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we take a comprehensive approach to treating autoimmune disorders.  We work in tandem with each patient to formulate an individualized treatment plan that caters to their specific requirements and objectives. Autoimmune issues can be difficult to manage, but with the right therapy and support, one can control their symptoms and improve their quality of life. At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we are committed to helping our patients with autoimmune disorders attain optimal health and well-being.

Elbow pain can be a frustrating and limiting condition that can interfere with daily activities. But with the right treatment, you can find relief. Let's dive into the most common causes of elbow pain:

  1. Tennis elbow: Tennis elbow is a condition that occurs when the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the outer part of the elbow become inflamed. This can cause pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow. Treatment for tennis elbow may include rest, ice, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgery.
  2. Golfer's elbow: Golfer's elbow is a condition that occurs when the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the inner part of the elbow become inflamed. This can cause pain and tenderness on the inside of the elbow. Treatment for golfer's elbow may include rest, ice, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgery.
  3. Bursitis: Bursitis is a condition that occurs when the small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joints become inflamed. This can cause pain and swelling in the elbow. Treatment for bursitis may include rest, ice, physical therapy, and in some cases, medication.
  4. Elbow fractures: Elbow fractures occur when one or more of the bones in the elbow joint break. This can cause pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the elbow. Treatment for elbow fractures may include immobilization, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgery.
