GOLF

Driving away Golf Injuries 

There’s nothing like the calm of a wide open golf course or the thwack of the perfect shot. The game of golf beautifully combines mental focus with physical strength, precision and technique. But with the complex body mechanics involved in each swing, it’s very easy for something to go wrong. If you feel that telltale twinge of pain when you pick up your golf clubs, it’s time to cancel the next round and call us before things get worse.

Golf injuries commonly affect the elbows and shoulders, although they can sometimes strike the hips and lower back with repeated improper body rotation during your swing.

At Andrews Sports Medicine, you’ll work with some of the top sports medicine physicians in the country. We offer surgical and nonsurgical treatment options for golf injuries, such as:

• Golfer’s Elbow
• Shoulder Impingement
• Rotator Cuff Tear
• Hip Impingement

Your orthopaedic treatment plan will also include specialized injury prevention counseling to help you reduce or avoid future orthopaedic problems. Our sports medicine specialists are experts in the field of injury prevention research and education — and their tips may even help your game, too!
