Eine Verstauchung des Ellenbogens ist eine Verletzung eines oder mehrerer Bänder um den Ellenbogen. Ellenbogenbänder sind robuste Gewebebänder, die die Knochen Ihres Oberarms und Unterarms um Ihr Ellenbogengelenk verbinden. Eine Verstauchung des Ellenbogens tritt typischerweise dann auf, wenn der Arm bei körperlicher Aktivität oder einem Unfall eine plötzliche, starke Dehnung erfährt.

Behandlung

Sie sollten Ihren Ellenbogen mit der RICE-Methode kühlen und schonen (ausruhen, kühlen, Kompression verwenden und ihn anheben). Wenn die Schmerzen zu stark sind, kann die Einnahme von NSAIDs wie Ibuprofen die Schmerzen lindern.
