Is a Tenex Procedure Right for You?

You probably didn’t think much about your elbows before you were injured. Now, thanks to the constant pain, it is nearly all you can think about! Clearly, you need to do something about it. As you discuss your options with your doctor, be sure to look into whether using Tenex technology is the right route for your injury recovery.

This minimally invasive technology eliminates chronic tendon pain by precisely targeting and removing damaged tissue, without the need for conventional surgery. This makes the Tenex elbow procedure cost in Lake Forest, CA much lower than what a traditional surgery would run, especially when you consider additional doctor’s appointments, anesthesia, a stay in the hospital, time off work, prescription pain medication, and other additional fees.

First, you must learn how the procedure actually works and what makes it different. Developed in collaboration with the world-renowned MAYO Clinic, Tenex technology has been shown in clinical studies to improve overall functionality and significantly decrease pain in the treatment of tendonitis in the elbow, among other body parts. The patented technology removes the source of pain, which is damaged tissue and helps stimulate a renewed healing response. It is not an invasive surgery and you aren’t even totally put under anesthesia! A local anesthetic will be used to numb the area, which may cause you to feel a momentary bee sting-type pain before the procedure, similar to getting novocaine at the dentist. However, you should not feel any pain during the procedure, only slight pressure. You may be sore in the treated area for a short period of time afterward, in which over-the-counter pain medication will be all that is needed for the slight discomfort.

We have not yet even discussed the best part of this option. Tenex elbow procedure recovery in Lake Forest, CA is significantly less than either letting it heal on its own, which may not even happen, or having traditional surgery. While having surgery on your elbow may give you a six-month recovery time before you are fully back to your daily activities, the period for Tenex elbow procedure recovery in Lake Forest, CA is measured in weeks instead of months! Stitches are not required, so your doctor will only apply a small, adhesive bandage after the procedure. You will be able to go home immediately after the procedure is completed. In as little as three, four, or up to six weeks, you will be pain-free!

Life is too short to spend months and months in pain, and then recovering from invasive surgery. Discuss better options with your doctor, including using Tenex technology to remove the diseased parts of your tendon that are causing your pain.
