What is Tennis Elbow?
Tennis elbow is a painful condition of the wrist and forearm that occurs when you hold the racket or racquet in your hand for too long.
Tennis elbow is caused by repetitive motion and strain on tendons, muscles, and ligaments in your wrist and forearm. The affected regions include the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), radial collateral ligament (RCL), and common flexor tendons. These structures are responsible for moving your wrist and forearm, which can cause tennis elbow symptoms if they're overused.
What are the symptoms of Tennis Elbow?
Symptoms of tennis elbow include pain on the inside of your elbow near the wrist, tenderness around your elbow joint, swelling in your forearm, loss of strength in your grip, and limited range of motion at the wrist joint.
Treatment depends on how severe your symptoms are and whether they're caused by inflammation or damage to tissue. You may need treatment if you experience pain when gripping something with your hand or other symptoms such as swelling or weakness in a certain part of your arm or hand.
Why Plasma Injection for Tennis Elbow?
Plasma injection is a popular treatment for tennis elbow because it offers several advantages over other treatments. Injection of the joint with plasma can be done quickly, painlessly, and inexpensively. Plasma injections are also safe and effective in many cases.
Plasma is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps regulate blood pressure and blood clotting. Plasma is also used as a treatment for a variety of medical conditions, including burns and wounds, rheumatoid arthritis, and diabetic neuropathy.
Injection of plasma into the painful area in the elbow is thought to help reduce inflammation and scar tissue formation. This may help relieve pain and improve circulation.
