any old timers here that have extra severe elbow osteoarthritis? if so did you find something that helps? like a brace/drugs. (already have flexx bars)

I have Osteoarthritis and it affected my knees, I have had both knees totally replaced.

Do they offer a elbow total replacement?

 

[cliff golby]

Look into PRP (plasma rich proteins) or STEM CELL injections. I tried the Synvisc shots helped some.
