Advances in Shoulder, Elbow Treatment Speed Patient Recoveries
The shoulder and elbow are two of the most common areas for musculoskeletal pain, affecting as many as one-quarter of all Americans at any given time. The vast majority of patients can be treated non-operatively, through activity modification, physical therapy and injections. Emerging technologies allow us to treat shoulder and elbow injuries in new ways. For some patients, joint replacement of the shoulder or elbow are the best option, with very high success rates.
