Treatment for cubital tunnel syndrome depends on symptom severity, nerve involvement and how much the condition affects daily activities. At The Coriel Clinic, we provide personalised, consultant-led care with both non-surgical and surgical options when appropriate.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Many patients benefit from conservative management, which may include:

• Activity modification to avoid sustained elbow bending and pressure.
• Ergonomic and movement advice to reduce nerve strain.
• Splints or braces to keep the elbow in a neutral position during activity or sleep.
• Targeted physiotherapy to improve muscle balance and nerve mobility.
• Anti-inflammatory measures to reduce pain and irritation.

These approaches aim to relieve symptoms, protect nerve function and improve arm comfort.

Surgical Treatment

When symptoms are persistent, progressive or significantly impact function despite conservative care, surgical intervention may be recommended. Surgical options often involve relieving pressure on the ulnar nerve by releasing or relocating it to a less constricted position.

Your consultant will discuss all suitable options in detail, including expected benefits, risks and recovery expectations, so you can make an informed decision about your care.

At The Coriel Clinic, our goal is to help you achieve lasting symptom relief, improved hand and arm function, and confidence in your everyday movements with expert support throughout your treatment journey.
