Common Mechanisms of Elbow Injuries
Elbow injuries can limit lifting, gripping, and arm movement. Wisconsin Medical Group treats elbow injuries for patients across Milwaukee and Southeast Wisconsin.
Workplace Accident
Repetitive motion, lifting, falls, and equipment-related incidents commonly cause elbow injuries at work. See a doctor for proper documentation for workers’ compensation if you have been injured at work.
Personal Injury
Elbow injuries frequently occur in slip and falls, sports injuries, and other traumatic incidents.
Experienced Physicians Treating Elbow Injuries in Milwaukee
A serious elbow injury can cause major disruption to the life of the patient. Additionally, elbow injuries are also often extremely painful. Any person who is experiencing significant elbow pain or general discomfort — whether it developed slowly over time or was caused by a single accident — needs to get immediate professional medical care. Elbow injuries come in many forms. A timely and correct diagnosis is necessary to access truly effective treatment. Specifically, some of the most common types of elbow injuries include:
- Elbow bursitis
- Fractured elbow
- Dislocated elbow
- Ligament damage
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Cubital tunnel syndrome
- Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
Similar to other joint injuries, elbow injuries that have not been properly treated have a natural tendency to linger and to become reaggravated. Too many patients report needing treatment for the same elbow injury over and over again. At Wisconsin Medical Group, our Milwaukee physical therapists have the skills and training needed to offer patients the individualized rehabilitative elbow injury care that they deserve. This helps to ensure the maximum possible physical recovery.
How a Personal Injury Physician Can Help Treat an Elbow Injury
If you are seeking financial compensation for a client’s elbow injury — whether through a personal injury lawsuit or through a Wisconsin workers’ comp claim — you should get them to an experienced Milwaukee personal injury physician for treatment. First and foremost, our team will make sure that your client gets the best possible medical care, attention, and support. This includes an accurate diagnosis, immediate action, an in-depth rehabilitative plan, and ongoing support.
Beyond that, our Milwaukee elbow injury physicians have a real, tangible understanding of the challenges facing personal injury attorneys. We know that incomplete, sloppy, or problematic record-keeping and document preparation by medical professionals makes it more difficult to effectively pursue a legal claim. We work directly with law firms to make sure that they have all of the records and information that they need to get justice and full financial support for their client.
