tennis elbow surgery question, please answer!!!!?

We Answered:

No, that's way too soon. You're going to need a few months of rest and rehabilitation before you do anything serious like white water rafting. Failure to heed that simple warning will damage your elbow and require additional medical care.

Does anyone have any personal results of tennis elbow surgery?

We Answered:

I have no personal experience with the surgery but I have worked for an orthopedic surgeon for numerous years. I can tell you that the surgery is an outpatient procedure. A small incision is made on the outside of your arm where they go into the repair the tendon that is causing your difficulty. You come out the same day in a molded splint and ace wrap and your arm will be in a 90 degree position bent with the palm inward facing your chest. You will have minimal discomfort and will return to the doctor nine-10 days post op to have the sutures removed. At this point the splint will be removed and you will have minor stiffness which should resolve once you begin moving the extremity again. Hope this helps.

carpel tunnel surgery and tennis elbow surgery?

We Answered:

The test wont hurt, especially if you have a severe case of carpal tunnel! I had the surgery about 10 years ago and the pain has not come back yet. I was out of work about 4 weeks and had to go to physical therapy for a while (Which hurt!). It is definately worth it though. Before the surgery I could hardly hold a hair or tooth brush!
