What is Tennis Elbow Treatment?
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a common overuse injury that causes pain and inflammation in the forearm tendons due to repetitive strain. This condition can make daily activities difficult and affects athletes, active individuals, and even those with jobs requiring repetitive arm movements.

This innovative approach provides faster recovery and long-term pain relief, allowing you to return to peak performance as quickly as possible.

You may be a candidate for tennis elbow treatment in San Diego if you experience:
- Persistent pain on the outer elbow that worsens with grip strength activities
- Weakness in the forearm that makes lifting objects difficult

What to expect during tennis elbow treatment
before treatment
Dr. Samagh, a leading sports medicine specialist in San Diego, will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, including a physical exam and imaging, to determine if PRP therapy is the best option for your tennis elbow.
during treatment
A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets, which contain powerful growth factors. The PRP is then injected directly into the affected tendon under ultrasound guidance, ensuring precision and effectiveness. This process stimulates the body’s natural repair mechanisms, reducing inflammation and promoting tissue regeneration.
recovery & rehabilitation
Most patients experience gradual pain relief within a few weeks as healing progresses. A personalized rehabilitation plan, including physical therapy and strengthening exercises, helps restore full elbow function while reducing the risk of re-injury. PRP therapy provides long-lasting relief without the need for surgery, allowing you to get back to your daily activities sooner.
