Elbow
A problem with your elbow may show up as a tingling sensation or numbness that radiates down your arm. Conditions like elbow fractures, elbow spurs, arthritis, and aging can create irritation inside the elbow joint, and tendons or bursa (fluid-filled sac on the tip of the elbow) can become inflamed.
An elbow injury can make it difficult to use your arm, which can affect your ability to work, drive, write, and perform normal, daily activities. The pain will get better under the care of a qualified elbow specialist. Choose Tucson Orthopaedic Institute, where we have several fellowship-trained elbow experts to help you today.

Shoulder
Shoulder pain can affect your ability to use your arm, and the pain can make it difficult to sleep. If left untreated, the pain will get worse, and you may notice muscle weakness, especially on the outside of your arm.
Shoulder injuries can happen suddenly while at work or during sports, but the shoulder can also suffer from normal wear and tear injuries. The goal of treatment is to repair any internal damage, strengthen the muscles around the joint, and restore your range of motion and function. From ultrasound diagnosis of shoulder injuries to rotator cuff repairs, our shoulder surgeons are leaders in their specialty and are here to help.
