German Orthopedic Surgeon in Dubai – Shoulder & Elbow Specialist at Emerald Avenue Medical Clinic, JBR Marina

At Emerald Avenue Medical Clinic, our German orthopedic specialists in JBR, Dubai Marina provide expert care for shoulder and elbow conditions. Since these joints are highly mobile, they are also prone to injury due to their complex structure. Whether you’re dealing with rotator cuff tears, impingement syndrome, shoulder arthritis, or elbow disorders like tennis elbow, we offer advanced diagnostics and tailored treatment plans to restore function and relieve pain.

Comprehensive Shoulder Treatments

Rotator Cuff Tear

The rotator cuff consists of four muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder. Over time, trauma, overuse, or natural degeneration can cause tears, leading to pain, weakness, and restricted mobility.

✅ Diagnosis: To ensure accuracy, our specialists perform clinical assessments, ultrasound, X-rays, and MRI scans for a precise evaluation.
✅ Treatment: While mild cases often improve with physiotherapy, PRP therapy, or corticosteroid injections, severe tears may require arthroscopic surgery to repair the tendons and restore full function.

Impingement Syndrome

Shoulder impingement happens when tendons become compressed between the shoulder blade and joint, causing pain and restricted movement.

🔹 Common Causes: Repetitive overhead movements, inflammation, or bone spurs often contribute to this condition.
🔹 Treatment: In many cases, anti-inflammatory medications, physiotherapy, and PRP therapy help relieve symptoms. However, if these methods prove ineffective, minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery may be necessary.

Shoulder Dislocation & Instability

When a shoulder dislocates, it can weaken the joint over time, leading to chronic instability and recurring pain.

🔍 Diagnosis: To assess the severity, we conduct thorough clinical examinations, MRI scans, and X-rays.
🩺 Treatment: Initially, immobilization and physiotherapy help stabilize the shoulder. Yet, for recurrent dislocations, surgical repair using minimally invasive techniques is often the best solution.

Shoulder Arthritis

As cartilage in the shoulder joint deteriorates, patients experience stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility.

💊 Treatment: While conservative options such as medications, PRP therapy, and physiotherapy provide relief, severe cases may require shoulder replacement surgery for long-term improvement.

Advanced Elbow Treatments

Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)

Overuse of the forearm muscles can lead to tendon inflammation, which results in pain and weakness.

⚡ Symptoms: Many patients report pain while gripping objects, tenderness, and difficulty lifting.
🩺 Treatment: While physiotherapy, PRP injections, and anti-inflammatory medications often help, severe cases may require surgical tendon release to restore function.

Elbow Arthritis

Degenerative changes in the elbow joint cause stiffness, swelling, and chronic discomfort.

💊 Treatment: In the early stages, medications, joint injections, and physiotherapy can manage symptoms effectively. However, for advanced cases, arthroscopic surgery or joint replacement may be necessary to restore mobility.

Ulnar Nerve Compression (Cubital Tunnel Syndrome)

When the ulnar nerve in the elbow becomes compressed, patients often experience numbness, tingling, and hand weakness.

🩺 Treatment: Initially, bracing and physiotherapy help alleviate symptoms. Yet, if the condition worsens, nerve release surgery is often required to relieve pressure and restore normal function.
