A provider will examine the elbow, checking movement, strength, and areas of tenderness. They may ask about your activity level, whether you play sports, or how the elbow affects daily tasks at work or home.

From there, your provider will talk with you about what they observed and what the next steps could look like. Some visits lead to imaging, some lead to a follow up plan, and some simply answer a question you had. The specifics of your care are always decided between you and your provider, not on this page.
