Abstract
Most elbow injuries carry an excellent prognosis for return to a given sport. Early identification of overuse injuries and joint contractures can deter bone deformities in later life. Early evaluation can deter severe complications such as that of neurovascular injury. Rehabilitation should not be considered complete until there has been maximal restoration and correction of technique and accuracy in addition to the issue of soft-tissue healing.
