It is frequently accompanied by ectopic ossification or ulnar neuritis, and may also result from adhesions or damage to the articular cartilage. In any case, stiffness leads to a marked limitation of movement and requires appropriate treatment.\n\nEffective management begins with a thorough evaluation via X-ray, ultrasound, or MRI. Particular attention is given to the overall assessment of bone structure, ligaments, and joint stability. If stiffness is combined with instability, the elbow may become functionally \u201cfrozen,\u201d making rehabilitation more challenging.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd2a1f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fd2a1f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Conservative treatment.<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-074522c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"074522c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>For recent or mild stiffness, treatment primarily focuses on physiotherapy.
