For those with chronic elbow issues or anyone who has recently experienced a serious elbow injury, elbow surgery may be the best option to relieve your pain. 

At Woodlands Hand To Shoulder, we serve those in Kingwood, TX; Sugar Land, TX; Montgomery, TX; The Woodlands, TX; and the surrounding areas of Montgomery county with the very best elbow procedures available. 

The elbow is a hinge joint that consists of three bones. A healthy elbow has very smooth bones with cartilage protecting them. Over time, the bones can develop arthritis and have damage done to the cartilage from constantly rubbing together.

If you believe you are experiencing arthritis or another elbow issue and think elbow surgery is right for you, we ask that you reach out to our team to learn more.

If you have severe pain in your elbow due to arthritis, we may deem that elbow surgery is necessary. When it is decided that your elbow will function better with a full replacement, we will insert an artificial hinge made of metal and a durable plastic into the joint so the elbow can move without the two forearm bones contacting the humerus. The artificial hinge, better known as an implant, will allow the elbow to bend, and if necessary, we may adjust the ligaments around the elbow for the best possible functioning. 

We have been performing elbow surgeries for many years and will be happy to answer any further questions you have about the surgery. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
