Condition Guide · Columbus, GA
Golfer's elbow is degeneration of the tendons on the inside of the elbow, where they attach to the medial epicondyle. Despite the name, it affects far more than just golfers.

Understanding the Condition
Like its counterpart on the outside of the elbow, medial epicondylitis is a degenerative tendon condition, not simple inflammation.
The Procedure
Once medial epicondylitis is confirmed, TenJet is one of the options available. Made by HydroCision, Inc., it lets Dr. Abdullah remove the degenerated portion of the tendon directly, without an operating room.

Common Questions
Yes. Evaluation and treatment for medial epicondylitis are available locally in Columbus rather than requiring referral to a metro Atlanta practice.
That depends on the load your job places on the inner elbow. Return to heavy lifting is staged deliberately, because loading a healing tendon too early can set recovery back.
The intent is the opposite: the tissue removed is already diseased and non-functional, while healthy fibers are preserved. Post-procedure loading is still staged carefully for that reason.
Mention it at evaluation. Tendon degeneration frequently affects more than one site, and the assessment may cover both rather than treating them as unrelated complaints.
