    Has anyone been through rehab with golfers elbow in terms of how long the recovery was? Was a trip to the Santry sports clinic needed?

    Cheers in advance

    Sorry to hear OP, had not one but two cold shoulders around this time last year.

    Just a general reminder that medical advice is a blanket ban on Boards so please avoid

    Didn't quite have the same. Have previously had bursitis in one elbow that required medical attention alright, was probably about a month or so out from golf.

    Had frozen shoulder too last year which required months of physio. It slightly limited my swing but didn't stop me playing golf. Still dealing with the tail end of it.

    Good luck with the treatment and recovery. Main thing is to get a professional to look at it, and whatever rehab they're advising, follow it as it speeds the recovery significantly

    A friend is getting shockwave and needling treatment at the local physio. It's working but takes a bit of time.

    Good luck with the recovery. I hadn’t actually heard of golfers elbow before but it sounds bad enough.

    MOD SNIP. No medical advice please

    One thing you can consider is getting the bigger grips like mcc plus4.I have issues with my elbow after breaking it years ago, and the bigger grips make a difference, especially when hitting thin shots it doesn't vibrate up into my arm as much.

    MCC+4 Grips ive put them on the wedges but will put them on the rest once they fix the swing weight. irons I can get away with playing wise but just cant get the mobility with the woods
