Such an informative video many thanks 😊
I’ve had this condition off and on for months. Thank you for these ideas. ❤
This is the best video I have found that explains everything in detail! Thank you.
Really concise, excellent information. Thanks for providing this as a free resource.
Thank you so much for this information. Interesting details and nuances to help along with stretching.
Best video I came across on the matter, helped me cure my elbow. Thanks for sharing.
9:18 hey, this addresses my symptoms exactly. It is more painful after waking up, or placing my hand still too long.
What an excellent resource. And he was right, he tells us things you don't hear when you are searching for information out there (even from other PTs). My bent elbow sleeping position never occurred to me! No wonder.
Nice! Every single point resonated with me. Thank you!
This Drummer of 32 years is very relived to have come across this video and channel, thank you!
I've had this in one elbow for 7 years. Now the other elbow is starting! 😭 I"m so glad I found you!🙏
Very helpful video. Thank you for posting!
very good ! thank you !
Thank you for this video, cant believe its free
Thanks for these tips. Great edit too
❤Extraordinary explanations!
This is great guidance and tips
Probably the BEST tennis elbow video on all UA-cam. Such a balanced and pragmatic approach. Thanks doc.
agreed. really pratical stuff.
Except there is not actually anything in this video to do to help the issue. Don't overwork/Don't underwork is basically what he says. What does the video actually have you do to fix the issue?
great explanation thanks
Very informative. Thanks.
Thanx,great video. Blessings
Very educational, thank you
What a great video, so full of useful information and excellent advice. Intuitively, I have been treating my issue as you recommend, being careful not to overload or subject myself to continued repetitive movements, which is difficult, just as you say. I find that the most painful moments for me are when my arm is hanging, relaxed and I simply bend my arm. Keeping tension in my arm makes the pain disappear through the same movement. Unlike my knee injury, CBD ointment did nothing to ease the pain of this elbow injury, where it helped tremendously with my knee injury.
Thanks you for making this - very helpful and informative - and made in a friendly understandable way
As a retired PT with current lateral epicondylitis, I found this video to be the best one I've seen so far.
Then you should know better
Thank you sir very helpful god bless u
Brilliant video. New sub. here thanks x
This is so weird! I was searching for videos to help me with The fact that I'm stalling with my mental growth, And I came across this, but I really do have a messed up elbow, I had surgery on it years ago and for the first time in ages it's flared up to the point that I can barely use it again haha. Weird. Glad I found this.
THE BEST!
I hope you’re fine , thank you so much for all this information, please upload more such videos
I been having Tennis elbow for 3 years might get surgery because my arm is slightly bent and in pain when active. However your exercises are legit and helpful for the moment. Well said and thank you for your advice and sharing. Blessings 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey mate, first off I'd like to begin by saying in my own personal experience the information you have given in this video is very helpful. secondly I'd like to thank you for making and posting this video as without a friend of mine in the same field as your own, I would not have solved this issue on my own so it will be extremely helpful to others.
Future viewers, if you fit the descriptions he speaks of, listen to the knowledge this man is offering.
I’m ff
great vid. any thoughts on rehab protocol after PRP injection to treat chronic golfers elbow ?
Mad this vid popped up ..I started doing push ups again and light weights ..it seems to have helped..this might seem off it but I grow my own nettles and have stung my elbow for a couple of weeks its worked for the pain far better than ice on it
how you telling us is so good
Man’s a genius. I recently had elbow arthroscopy surgery..just trying to figure out how to get my elbow back to normal. I had elbow spur that effected me for over a decade and in last year I had injured my wrist and developed De Quervain In my thumb wrist and been battling that then developed tennis elbow just before my surgery to fix my bone spur. I power-lift and I have done construction my whole life and I’m in the military. Thanks for the tips.
I am thanking you for this video. You have explained things in a specific way and I believe it will help to rid of my elbow pain..
Driving a car causes the elbow pain / tennis elbow?. Please advice, I can manage to reduce my driving activity in accordance.
you are real dr
Thank you very much, sir. May God bless you.
Amateur climbing arborist here…got injured yanking on my climbing rope and man am I feeling blue that I cannot climb trees right now.
Really looking forward to the possibility of healing through these wise methods.
Thanks much
thanks for watching and good luck with your recovery!
how's it going mate?
Thank you so much. Sleeping, or rather the position I have my left arm in sleep, is most probably the culprit in my case. And it burst into this hug pain while gathering up fallen leaves in my yard. Doctor prescribed some ointment and a brace, acute care done!! But, I instinctively knew that could not be the solution and found this post. Now, I am not going with the elbow support but shall use the ointment and do the exercises and correct my sleeping position. Stay blessed.
@@timbowen5773 Past - on my side, curled up with one arm under the body and the other arm falling down in the front. Shoulders rounded and sort of crouched together.
God Bless You!
Thank you for this video
Doc said I've damaged tendons in my elbow and still sore after 10wk...got physio booked a day this has given me plenty food for thought....do you recommend getting a tens machine to treat this?
Thank-you, yes my pain comes from indoor rock climbing (not tennis!) basically ramping up my training volume.
Great video, useful info, I have been fighting with this recurring nightmare since 10 years.
Rest is not enough. Exercise is not enough. Massage is not enough. Try to meet a serous professional, on your own it will never heal. thumbs up!
Excellent info, I’ve 80% recovered from this nasty condition. PRP injections helped my healing journey, 3 years I’ve been recovering, after injections in both elbows 2 times it took me 6 months to gain strength and function without pain. My strength isn’t what it used to be, such is life now. Best wishes to all who read this, good luck with your recovery. 30 years of hard yakka
I had Prp injections after 1.5 yrs of pain. Doc said I had smutz for tendons... Basically nothing much left. All dark gray on the ultrasound where a healthy tendon would show white. Both elbows. Injections in May last year, then again in September. First time it was two weeks till I could drive. Two months before I had decent mobility again. After second set I was driving in two days, mobility in a week. By November I felt better than before the may injections. December ultrasound showed almost completely healthy tendons but I still had pain. Physical therapy for 6 months... A little more progress. Another 6 months and here I am still with some minor pain (almost constant). Thankfully this year I've been able to do my job at half throttle ( concrete finishing). I can drink coffee pain free and open door knobs pain free. So fairly happy. But would love to get rid of the residual pain and gain the other 50% strength back. I've been trying flossing of the arms. That gives short term relief and maybe some longer term healing. Just last two weeks I'm trying muscle scraping on one elbow. Seems to help a tiny bit. Will continue that for a couple more weeks. Frustrating that this started in October 2019 and I'm still in semi rough shape. I'm 42 so I understand that I heal super l slower than I used too... I'll keep searching and trying
@@miltonemsheimer9049 I feel your pain man, literally. you've described my story somewhat - minor differences being, the ultrasound shows BLACK rather than dark grey! and here's the thing, I think it's because I stopped training (ex-boxer for 2+ decades) and took a very lazy / sitting typing / driving life-style. (I'm guessing!)
@@Cryptokat FFS Tyler Twists is THE answer. No need for expensive treatment.
@@miltonemsheimer9049 really try Tyler Twists. I've had this condition for years on and off . Each time now I get the theraband flex bar....I use green...and it's gone within a day or two (needed a couple of weeks first time).
❤
I've had elbow pain for nearly 2 years. I look forward to trying these exercises.
It won’t help. I’ve had it for 3 years and spent thousands on PT, dry needling, cortisol injections, do all these exercises and stretches daily. It’s no better than it was before. You’re just going to have to live with it.
@@EyeForKnowledge. It doesn't bother me too much or stop me climbing, arm-wrestling, swimming etc. So if it doesn't get worse, then I'm ok with that - I guess...
@@LeahRobb I hope it stays that way. I’m a bodybuilder and have learned which exercises to avoid that cause it to flare up and avoid them. But even at that, some days are worse than others. Like last night at the gym, I didn’t do any of the exercises that make it worse but when I got home it felt like someone was stabbing me with a hot knife. Just something I have to live with because I can’t stop lifting. It’s really the only thing I enjoy doing.
@@EyeForKnowledge.i don't know if I have tennis elbow but have had similar pain for about a month, but it's more just soreness while lifting , not any other time . did your injury start out like that?
@@AndrewEvenstar Yeah. Started out just feeling like tender. A dull ache. Then it progressively got worse. My days in the gym are over.
I find Athlean-Xs tennis elbow video truly convincing regarding kettlebell swing exercises. A lot of the comments under the comment section suggests a lot of people are getting rid of their lateral epicondylitis/tennis elbow.
Cheers will go have a look
Athlean-Xs
I was sleeping with my elbows tucked n folded in n only u told thanks as I ve tennis elbow now 🙏🙏😊😊
Link to video about bracing?
I was having a hard time figuring out how to string the strap through the loops and was hoping you could show us all how please and thank you
I have complained to my PT that my elbow hurts every morning because I can not find a good position to place my elbow to sleep. Could you please demonstrate what position is best for sleeping to relieve the overnight pain? Especially for sleeping on your side. Thank you for a great video.
Hi there! Great informative video. Would you recommend KT tape for support and circulation?
thanks for watching! I do like KT tape as an additional strategy. good luck!
I have recently developed this through using small pruning shears over the space of only an hour or so, just using strong grip force which was quite difficult as the plant I was pruning was a flax bush, I had to apply a fair amount of pressure really, I only noticed the pain develop hours later and it grew worse as time went by. It's been around 4 weeks now, I was given a brace, like the one you use in another video but without the inflatable pillow part, just a piece of plain velcro really!
I will follow your advice in this video and try to work it but not overdo it I think. I have had this before years ago after doing a repetitive job, technically returning to work too soon to an unsuitable job, years earlier I had multiple shoulder dislocations - around 5 or 6, I lost count to be honest. I had one shoulder reconstruction that was opening the shoulder up method, that was ok and it didn't dislocate and I had no shoulder problems from then really, but I think this is when the tennis elbow occurred. I had RSI type symptoms (I thought so anyway) in both wrists from using a machine that required lots of downward pressure then application of 2 buttons with your thumbs whist holding down wooden framing for large mirrors. Basically, it nailed 90-degree angles till you rotated the piece and completed a square. The machine would also grip then apply nails to the underside of the work piece in an upward direction, I had to have another surgery on the shoulder, and this was done arthroscopically probably 20 yrs ago now. I'm 57 - I think the elbow will require more drastic work, maybe injections, I hope not but the Dr said if the brace and local topical volataren don't work in 4 weeks he'll inject it. It's been over 4 weeks now...I don't want to have steroid injections so at this stage I will stick to lighter use whilst rubbing the arm gently and often. It has not healed at all, and I would say it's become more painful actually.
I can barely use my arm it's so painful, even trying to pick up a cup of coffee I find I need to assist that arm as the strength is minimal and it's very painful. I can't remember how the prior tennis elbow healed. I have a feeling it disappeared once I had the shoulder re-worked on via the arthroscope method. Maybe Dr will have notes on this, but my files were transferred to another practice, and much were just photocopying those days and no real keyboard entry to a computer was made so it's a matter of sifting through pages of junk. I'm a photographer so this may be making it worse as my camera is very heavy. I try to use my left arm as much as I can though. I will watch more of your videos - thanks for putting them up on here.
Thankyou, kiteboarding, log splitting maul, shovel work, digger work and a bad chipper experience brought out my tendonosis 4 months ago... trying to get it better by all the ways you have mentioned (hard to stay away totally from kiteboarding ;) ... thanks so much for this video ... so helpful, insightful!
Thanks Joshua and good luck with your recovery!
I'm on this vid trying to heal up my tennis elbow in time for kiting season which starts in Nov here 🤣
Enthesitis due to Ankylosing Spondylitis opened the door to a tennis elbow type of pain that never ever ever goes away. 7 years since it first started, I am still dealing with it. Flexbar loading seemed to take me on the right path, but even after graduating to the Blue, the most demanding, it came right back -- even though I tried to acclimate to every new demand I placed on it. For a super minor case, many things will work. For something perhaps more rare; there are unknown components evidently at work. Sigh
In the exact same boat as you.. wow, didn't expect to find someone else dealing with such an outlier scenario. It's been 4 months for me, physical therapy helped a bit but the improvement has stalled now and I have decided to simply accept the pain and continue living with it.
@@HimanshuGupta-nt6kl it's def not an outlier scenario. This is a chronic inflammation problem that requires constant management...I'm in the same situation and have been for 20 yrs so I've had to learn how to deal with it. Compression sleeves from Amazon really work by taking the load off the elbow...give them a try.
Thanks for your help, great video! Do you climb Indian Creek?
Thx for watching! Smith Rock in OR is my home crag and I've also climbed City of Rocks in ID but haven't made it to Indian Creek yet - would love to go!
I am so thankful to have found this video. I developed elbow tendinitis from years of crocheting. Like you mentioned in the video, I believe I was doing damage to the elbow long before the pain started. It is now affecting my daily life and sleep. I am beginning physical therapy this week, and I hope and pray it will bring some relief. Thank you so much for all of the information you’ve shared!
Thank you Kimberly, good luck!
Did it work?
Do you still have pain
@@Nehal-ol6zj I ended up having to have surgery two months ago. I should have gotten therapy long ago before the damage was so bad. I am 9 weeks post op and a week into recovery physical therapy. It will be 6 months or more before I have full healing in my elbow.
@@kimberlynewberry7770 Thanks for reply I have pain for more than three years i tried physo tharey steroid injections pain killers message . it doesn't bother me much untill i dont do gym or heavy waight lifting or repetitive movements i am hoping it will heal it self not sure about surgery any ways please take care of your self will be in touch.
Man so many good things mentioned ..I’ve a tennis elbow ongoing for almost 2 years. So tired and exhausted. Nothing seems to be helping
Same
Any improvement?
Interesting that I came upon your video abt arm flexion for long periods. I just realized this week (after having tendonitis for a year now) that holding my phone makes my tendonitis worse. On the days where I am not on my phone much my arms feel so much better!!
yes!! it's a sneaky source of ongoing problems. headset time maybe? best of luck!

Where is the link for the other video? Can you please provide it?
This is great info IF your that will respond to PT. I have a large tendon tear no PT will help. Get an MRI!
Soooo helpful,...Thanks😁👍
I've had this for a year and a half, nonstop.
I started weight lifting and got it after 2-3 months. Constant gripping, lots of flexing repetitions, i overdid it. Now im taking a break and hired a personal trainer. Wanna do it right the 2nd time.
Does dry needling help for this condition, i have been having it for 2 years and have gone thru laser , ultrasound and now have been prescribed dry needling, what are your thoughts on it?
I have tennis elbow on my right elbow since last year. Had Mri done and found that I had a 3mm tear. Had 3 therapy sensions of 9 times each. 9 rounds of acupuncture and got a cortisone shot in August. I was off work for 6 months. After 2 weeks after the cortisone shot, I went back to work and was feeling great. I took it easy at work, but I started to feel my left elbow starting to get strained a month ago. And now my right both my elbows hurt. I can't sleep unless I wear my compression sleeves on both arms. It even hurts to lift my blanket at night.
Just went with my specialist today, and he ordered a prp injection for my right elbow and a mri for the left side. I'm hoping this relives the pain.
I have a 50% tear in my left forearm extensor tendon and had a PRP injection March 27th...arm is weaker now and more painful but due to inactivity following the injection so fingers crossed
How is it now?
@Custer Ranch I wake up with little to no pain now. But if I lift something kinda heavy it feels like straining. I also have more range of motion now. May get an other shot in a few weeks.
Dear Physiotherapist, i have both tennis elbow and golfer elbow pains since 4 months due to gym exercises i started in 46 years. In 2 months i developed thid. I also feel tendin tension in biceps now. Plz upload a video for this condition where all the arms tendons do pain. Thanks
Hey! I’ve been dealing with a tendinitis over almost a year now and it doesn’t seem to be healing as I expected and it’s jeopardizing my climbing and music playin. I’m a professional musician and passionate climber.
Is personal consultation something you offer via Skype or similar? Please let me know because this video really gave me hope.
I have developed tendinitis in my right elbow primarily. I have felt slight symptoms in my left elbow but not often. My right elbow now hurts most of the time especially after work. I’m a driver and drive up to 11 hours a day up to 70 hrs a week. I believe the issue is with over gripping. I’ve started to try relaxing my grip, not over lapping my fingers as much and trying to keep pressure and control on the steering wheel with my palm but there are times when I do have to have more control and I’m forced to grip tightly. I try to vary my hand position on the wheel when I can but the safest hand positions are the cause of the problem. I stay in these hand positions most often. I’ll start incorporating these tips and trying the wrist support instead of the elbow strap as much. If you have more in depth advice for professional drivers please send it.
Great points, you also need to address positioning of the scapula and shoulders. Maybe the shoulder isn't rotating adequately.
Exactly!
I've had this condition on and off for about 20 years through cortisol shots, PT, ibuprofen and exoskeletal supports. If you use your arms for heavy work or exercise, like I do, I can assure you the condition will never fully go away but you can manage the discomfort through everything mentioned in this video. Unfortunately its pretty much of a life long affliction like many other types of chronic inflammation but use the info in this video to manage the issue and control the pain... everything mentioned here is helpful, and in my lengthy experience with this problem, definitely worthy of your time.
I can relate. It is cyclical for me. It get betters until it is not. For me, I know what my triggers are. For example, I know my tendons hate the hammer curl motion. This is what generally triggers it for me. I get confident thinking, if I start very light, I can strengthen the tendon and eradicate it for good. Nope! I fall right back into pain and weeks of recovery then I have to start from the beginning again.
@@albertc2390Yup. Bodybuilder here. Took 6 months off and lost a bunch of muscle trying to heal this. I have come to the conclusion I will just hammer away at it until it tears and then just get it surgically put back in place. Nothing helps. All the stretching, exercising, PT, dry needling,etc has done nothing. So fuck it. I’m just gonna keep doing my normal routine until I tear it. May be out of the game for a while but I can’t not work out. It’s the only thing in my life I enjoy doing.
damn. I've had mine for a month. I hope it heals and goes away. it doesn't hurt so bad but cannot do upright rows with a bar anymore, without pain. that's definitely how I hurt it.
@@AndrewEvenstar It won’t get better. Mine are so bad again, that I’ve decided to just hang it up. I can’t go to the gym anymore. Once you get this, it’ll just continue getting worse. It gets better once you stop but never heals. As soon as you go back, it comes back.
@@EyeForKnowledge. damn. that's not good. I work out every day . shit
My both elbow stiff next day after workout IN GYM can you please help me how to fixt this.I cant open my full hand its stuck from elbow.
My elbow pains even if I touch it a little I can't even lift my 3yr old kid and throwing or making a first hurts dearly been 2years now.even thought I had avn since I did a hip replacement or is it possible
What about heat or cold treatment?
I've been dealing with tennis elbow pain for about 4 months -- it's actually from playing tennis. I stopped playing once the pain became unbearable, and I've tried various PT methods at home (I had a phone consult with a PT). I will see some improvement, but then I'll back slide, and right now I'm in a period of increased pain. It's on the top of the forearm running back to the elbow, but it's also in the crook of my arm (the PT suggested that I have biceps tendinitis), and also on the outside of the elbow, close to the funny bone. Flexing and then straightening the elbow causes pain, as does lifting any weight at all with the palm facing down (such as taking a cutting board out of the drying rack). I'm really feeling hopeless these days, it's a frustrating injury to say the least.
Hey man, I am feeling for you. In a similar situation, 2 month and on. My tennis elbow came from a combination from tennis + gardening work. I play ~10h per week of 4.0 level matches / drills; i have decent relaxed technique using my body and never had tennis elbow before, but first time in my life i did some gardening work for couple weeks and it was too much. My learnings from TE: 1/ read "talk tennis" forum if you haven't yet, search te or tennis elbow there, many experiences and advices 2/ I had to accept to stop playing with my right hand. I don't stop using my right hand in daily life even if it causes pain (like you said, even simple flexing and strengthening was pain some days). I don't do any strengthening exercises like flex bar until the pain reduces to zero in daily life, I plan to start flexbar very slowly and gradually after. I don't do intense stretching as it worsens the pain. I do some light pressuring massage in the evenings, like pressing a point in my arm and keeping pressure for 20secs, I do it far away from elbow, and it seems to be helping a little. Braces or ice didn't do much help. 3/ It took 2 weeks after I stopped playing with right hand to start seeing less pain in daily life. 4/ I started to learn to play tennis with the left hand to keep the sport going. Its not easy, but very interesting experience 5/ Overall this experience also led me to learn much more then I knew before about tennis form and technique and exposed some things which i was doing wrong, like my wrist was often bent in forehand finish or backhand lag or serve and even shadow swinging without the ball was causing pain. Wrist should be neutral at most times in all shots. Backhand type shots and serves are the worst for elbow, forehand is OK, so study you backhand shots form how you hit them, to not repeat in future. I have also increased the size of my grip, I had it too small as i liked the feeling, but it is not good for elbow. I have also reduced tension from 23kg to 16kg:) Lastly, I changed to multifilaments.
Should you do the static elbow stretches every thirty minutes all day every day and is soreness following the movement normal or should i ease up? Im unemployed and sitting around a lot because this condition has left me unable to do a lot so im often sitting with a static position
What about weightlifting ? Do i need to stop lifting weights? I also have pain in both brachioradialis(both arms) ..
This is great. When you say not to overdo it with the micro loading of exercises, do you mean do them once a day do them twice a day? I understand the static positioning variation throughout the day, but the actual exercises I’m curious how much you would call overdoing it
thanks for watching! Overdoing it will vary by person so a good general rule of thumb is - if exercises produce more pain, stiffness and/or swelling that remains present into the next day, then it's too much. Time is the real healer - a lighter load over many days/weeks gets the job done while a stronger load may just irritate things. Good luck!
I can't do shoulerpresses at the gym suddenly because my rightside elbow is very weak, almost feels like it will collapse while the leftside is just chilling, I feel some pain when I do the exercise but not outside of it and can do every day to day thing too. Gonna try these tips and see if I can get it fixed. Using the pc a lot I think thats the cause.
How’s your elbow Sir, I have also same problem 😢
I’m almost at a year from my and started from vball but I can’t quit playing Trying to do some of this rehab stuff and cut back a day of volleyball. Hope that’s enough 😩😩
I can't see the links that you mention in the video.
I've had mine for a year and it has only gotten worse. Thinking I might need to get an FMLA form for this and take a month off at least, I can't work with this pain.
Is swimming ok ? Or will it harm it? My dr says its ok to go swimming.
I’m having that problem in both elbows from driving a semi truck!!!!!
I stopped working for 2 weeks now as it was probably caused by typing - dual tennis elbow and carpal tunnel in left hand..
My wrists ache and shoulders, as well as elbows/arms... I can't type longer than 15 minutes without starting to have pain :(..
I also have hypermobility... which probably doesn't help.
Any tips in addition?
I had surgery on my left elbow last year for tennis elbow i now have it in my right elbow , ive had 2 cortisone injections but it always comes back
Thx alot dude..🤩🤩🤩so cute
Really good advice and some of those I already knew, but I have not paid enough attention. I developed golffer's elbow problem while doing heavy skull crusher's at gym. I stopped doing those and started doing lighter moves, but that also started to hurt my elbow. I tried to just continue too long until I eventually stopped going gym few months after the pain started. I have not had this pain at all before that even if I had been working out about 7 years multiple times every week. The problem never fully went away, but it is mild if I am not working out. If I start working out, it starts to hurt again. I have had this problem over 10 years. I sit on a computer, write and game alot and have been doing it about 20 years. I know that sitting on a computer propably makes it worse, but I have not reduced it. I have tried to massage it daily, which helps at first, but then just starts to become more painful. I have also done some stretches, which does pretty much the same. I think the best advice for me was to keep it moving during day. I also notice that it hurts sometimes while I am sleeping, so maybe I can see, if there is something to be done. I saw your other video, which recommend using wrist wrap, I will probably try that one too. I am going gym now and I think I am not stopping it. I am trying to avoid moves, which hurts my elbow though. Bicep curls seems to be the worst excercise for me. Too bad, because I have my own bar at home and I would love to pump those sometimes, but I have not managed to do it for years.
Hi there I’m 13 and I think I got my problem from the gym I saw a physician and they said I had tricep tendonitis I did all the things they said to do and it didn’t help after that I got a job a month later I only had 2 shifts a week but it hurt when I was working but I just went through the pain at school and work and it turned into a worse problem know I have pain and aching in my elbow wrist and forearm and the only time I can wrest it is in the holidays I’ve had it for over a year any tips I can do for when I’m at work and school
Got a tennis elbow to the point I could still play, but when I would push the lower arm and the joint, it would hurt. Also slight stiffness would appear the day after. I quit playing for almost two weeks, started fasting for 4 days in a row per week and took magnesium and collagen next to healthy food like fish, kiwi, hemp seeds, goji berries, inca berries, … after less than a week I started playing again and it is much better. No more pain, no more stiffness. I wouldn’t say i got rid of it completely but I’m playing a bit less now (not every day multiple times anymore). I also think that if you stop using that arm, your tendons are not getting stronger and the problem will come back as soon as you restart your activity…
I have elbow problem by playing arm wrestling how can we get strong elbow
My intense elbow pain was caused by trying to open a jar.. it took me while to figure out . I was going to see my chiropractor and his aide told me they will do trigger point and myofasial release. So I looked up treatment for lateral epicondyle pain watched a treatment on you tube. I did it to myself and within 1/2 hour I had complete relief.
Do you have the link to the video?
@@jbicondoa I had complete relief for a while then pain started hurting again. But I do the same technique to release the myofasial fibers. It was a you tube video. She was a therapist demonstrated how to relieve tennis elbow pain. I use Gastron techniques to relieve pain as well even though I don't have the tools. Cold metal scrapping the muscles and tendons relieve the pain with cross fiber friction movements. Google gastron techniques.
@@buddette3308 thank you very much! I will check it out.
Just turned 47 and an afternoon of skipping a jig has me in agony. I suppose skipping is a physical technique but it never affected me before. I guess this is the start of experiencing the "Getting old sucks" that I always hear the old timers saying. Maybe I need to start thinking about cane pole fishing for panfish? 😂
I’ve had elbow tendinitis on both sides of the elbow for over a year now. I’ve done PT, PRP, Stemcells, more PT, plenty of rest and nothing works. Any advice?
My right elbow keeps popping and sore sometimes
What should I do;;;
Mine is from climbing, and not healing after 2 months. I've tried everything.
Hello I have ankonlosis sprondolinis
Do you have tips for people that have injured wrists from recovered carpal tunnel syndrome? I can't arch my wrists 90 degrees like all these ridiculous elbow exercise videos say. I'd rather live with elbow pain indefinitely, to avoid a carpal tunnel flareup. Carpal tunnel injuries are several times worse than elbow pain. Can I just skip the bent wrist stuff?
I've been massaging my forearm extensor muscles with a massage gun to release the tension. I feel it works but I've also noticed I have a tender spot half way through the muscle and I really don't know what it can be.
It may seem counterintuitive but I avoid those tender spots totally - too many times I've found them to be pockets of swelling/edema or things like superficial nerves or other structures that don't do well (or do very badly indeed) with the high repetition and intensity of a massage gun. Good luck!
Would you recommend the massage gun for tendinitis? Have been considering buying one
where's the brace video link?
