Getting back on the course

For golfers dealing with medial epicondylitis, the real goal is getting back to a full, pain-free swing. Here's a realistic recovery timeline following treatment.

The Procedure

Why this timeline is realistic with TenJet®

The recovery pattern above assumes a minimally invasive approach. TenJet, manufactured by HydroCision, Inc., is designed to avoid the longer downtime of open surgery, which is part of why golfers can often follow a timeline like this one.

No surgical incision — a small needle access point
Local anesthesia, no hospital stay
Healthy tendon fibers are preserved during treatment
The procedure itself takes about 15 minutes
Covered by Medicare and most private insurance

Recovery Timeline

What recovery typically looks like

Individual recovery varies, but this is a general pattern many patients follow after treatment for golfer's elbow.

Week 1-2

Rest from swinging and grip-intensive activity while acute symptoms settle.

Week 3-4

Gentle range-of-motion and light grip-strengthening exercises begin.

Week 5-8

Progressive strengthening, often with a short game and putting return before full swings.

Week 9-12

Return to full swing practice and course play for most patients, pending physician clearance.
