Your elbow shouldn’t feel like it’s slipping, catching, or giving way — but that’s exactly what elbow instability can feel like. We've been seeing a wave of these cases lately, especially in people lifting heavy gear, swinging a racket, carrying kids, or doing repetitive upper-body work.

If your elbow's sending pain signals when you lift, push, or twist, don’t let it slide — get it checked before it gets worse.

Game day is almost here, and high school teams across the Panhandle are putting in the work — in the heat. 🏈

This time of year, we see it all: sprains, strains, ACL tears, shoulder injuries, and the toll of overtraining in high temps. The headlines have been a tough reminder — hydration and recovery matter. From Mosley to South Walton, Arnold to Bay High, and beyond, Southern Orthopedic is here to keep athletes in the game.

Nothing says summer like a little smack talk over a game — until you roll an ankle or tweak a knee diving for that “impossible” save.

Weekends crank up the competitiveness, but they can also leave you limping into Monday. If you’re hurting after the fun, take it easy: rest, ice the area, and keep it elevated if it’s swollen. And don’t try to push through the pain — if it’s not improving after the weekend, call us.

One wrong move reeling in a snapper — a slip, a hard landing, and a weekend of shoulder pain that just wouldn’t quit.

Torn rotator cuff. 😐 And no, it’s not just athletes.

We see these injuries often in fishermen, boaters, weekend warriors — anyone doing repetitive lifting, overhead motion, or hands-on work.

Here’s what to watch for:
• Pain when lifting your arm
• Weakness or popping with movement
• Trouble sleeping on that side

If your shoulder doesn’t feel right, don’t wait it out. These injuries are a lot easier to fix when caught early.

How does this tiny little ball cause so much chaos?! Pickleball might be fun, but it’s sure tough on joints.

We’ve seen it all — weekend warriors, backhand fails, and those “oops-I-twisted-something” moments. Play hard, but watch the quick stops, awkward landings, and sudden twists.

If something feels off come Monday morning, you know where to find us. Call 850-771-2001 | SouthernOrthopedicSpineSurgery.com
