Shots

Injections, or “shots,” are commonly used to manage tennis elbow when rest, therapy, and medicines don’t provide enough relief. Shots deliver medicine or healing agents directly into the injured tendon, helping reduce pain and promote healing. There are different types of shots available, each with its own benefits and limitations. They are generally considered when pain interferes with daily life and conservative measures are not working. Shots are less invasive than surgery and may provide faster relief, though they are not always a permanent solution.
