I have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow where the nerve pops out over the medial epicondyle when I bend my arm. Every doctor I've seen recommends surgery, but I'm wondering if homeopathy can help stop the nerve from moving instead

While homeopathic treatments may offer some relief from pain and inflammation associated with ulnar nerve subluxation, there is no scientific evidence to support their ability to stop the nerve from moving or reposition it. Medical professionals recommend surgery (anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve) as the most effective treatment for ulnar nerve subluxation because it addresses the underlying issue of nerve displacement and prevents further damage
