Overview
Elbow pain most commonly from lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) or medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow) is a frustrating condition that can significantly limit grip strength, work capacity, and sporting activity. Standard treatments including rest, physiotherapy, and GP-administered steroid injections frequently provide only temporary relief, partly because injections without ultrasound guidance often miss the precise target. Dr Malik’s ultrasound-guided approach which may include corticosteroid injection, PRP therapy, or dry needling ensures treatment reaches the exact point of tendon degeneration, supporting lasting recovery rather than temporary symptom suppression.
