It is most commonly seen in throwers and can cause posterior and posterior medial elbow pain. The speaker depicts various examinations and diagnostic tests, such as the arm bar test and chondral shear test, to diagnose the condition. They also discuss treatment options, including rest, ice, medication, and cortisone injections. The video then showcases a surgical technique called arthroscopy to remove bone spurs and address cartilage problems in the elbow.
