Pathology
• Throwing, hitting, punching, pushing, painting
• Shoulder dysfunction
• Cervical spine pathology

Osteoarthritis
• Post traumatic
• Capsular pattern
• Crepitus
• Older patient
• Electrotherapy and mobilisation or injec into joint

Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Lax ligaments – reduced stability• Synovial thickening and swelling, flexion
deformity
• Steroid injec and rest or oral medication
![Page 6: The Elbow Differential Diagnosis & Treatment. Pathology Throwing, hitting, punching, pushing, painting Shoulder dysfunction Cervical spine pathology.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca60af/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Traumatic Arthritis
• Cause – fall or hyperextension
• Acute – x-ray and aspirate
• Sub acute – steroid injection and rest or 1 week rest in flex and gradual gentle mobs
• No friction – myositis ossificans

Tennis Elbow
• Causes:
• 2 joint muscle – lengthening across 2
• joints + added force
– sheer stress at origin
• Overuse
• Gripping
![Page 14: The Elbow Differential Diagnosis & Treatment. Pathology Throwing, hitting, punching, pushing, painting Shoulder dysfunction Cervical spine pathology.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc41a28abf838ca60af/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tennis Elbow• Pathology
• 6months – 2years
• Microscopic tears – failed healing - inflammation
• Fibroblasts
• Vascular hyperplasia
• Disorganised collagen
• Tendinitis or tendinosis

On examination
• 20-30’s most common and degen 40yrs +
• Pain on resisted wrist extension with elbow extension
• Reduced grip strength
• Pain on palpation
