Understanding Elbow Pain: Tennis Elbow vs. Golfer’s Elbow

Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a condition characterized by pain on the outside of the elbow. It occurs due to overuse or repetitive motions, often associated with activities like tennis, painting, or typing. The condition involves inflammation of the tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle, a bony prominence on the outside of the elbow.

Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)

Golfer’s elbow, or medial epicondylitis, is similar to tennis elbow but affects the inside of the elbow. This condition is caused by overuse or repetitive motions that strain the tendons attached to the medial epicondyle, a bony prominence on the inside of the elbow. Activities like golfing, throwing, or lifting can contribute to golfer’s elbow.

Symptoms of Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow

Both conditions share common symptoms, including:

• Pain and Tenderness: In the affected area (outside for tennis elbow, inside for golfer’s elbow).
• Weakness: Reduced grip strength or difficulty lifting objects.
• Stiffness: Difficulty moving the elbow or extending the arm fully.
• Swelling: Inflammation around the elbow joint.

How SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology Works

SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology utilizes electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves traveling over 3,000 mph. These waves trigger a cascade of positive biological responses at the cellular level, promoting healing, repair, and regeneration of tissues. Here’s how SoftWave Therapy aids in elbow pain relief:

• Reduction of Inflammation: SoftWave Therapy helps to modulate inflammation, reducing one of the primary sources of elbow pain.
• Enhanced Blood Flow and Angiogenesis: By promoting the production of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and encouraging angiogenesis, SoftWave Therapy improves blood flow to the affected area, ensuring tissues receive necessary oxygen and nutrients for healing.
• Stimulation of Healing Responses: The therapy enhances the expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) and activates Toll-Like Receptors, essential for cell repair and immune response.
• Activation and Migration of Resident Stem Cells: SoftWave Therapy activates and mobilizes resident stem cells, crucial for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues.
