Ulnar Nerve Flossing - Amazing Results - Ask Dr. Abelson
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2024
- Ulnar Nerve Flossing - For individuals affected by ulnar nerve entrapment syndrome, these exercises serve to floss, mobilize, and liberate the ulnar nerve from the encircling tissues. The ulnar nerve is susceptible to compression at various locations, including the wrist, beneath the collarbone, or as it emerges from the spinal cord in the neck region. When the ulnar nerve experiences compression at the elbow, this specific condition is termed "cubital tunnel syndrome." The ulnar nerve flossing exercises aim to relieve compression and restore optimal nerve function across these various anatomical sites.

The ulnar nerve can be compressed at the wrist, beneath the collarbone, or as it comes out of the spinal cord in the neck. When ulnar nerve compression occurs at the elbow, it is called "cubital tunnel syndrome."

Thank you
Thanks god bless
I wish more doctors and rehab specialists took the time to explain how the nerves work! Thank you! Part of the struggle is not knowing what is going on!
exactly my only problem with mine, but I guess they have very limited time for it for an appointment of 30 min or so. Good thing there are these specialists on the internet.
PERFECT!!!!!!!!! Exactly the exercises I needed. and I saw an improvement in a week. After a month, all gone. I have full function and strength back in my arm that was affected.My sincere thanks for providing this information publically.
Can I ask how many times a day you did these exercises? Is the prescribed amount in the video enough? And did you do any other stretches or movements? I know this was from 4 years ago but I'm hoping you will see this comment still.
@@nicholasbray4854 hey hows your hand ? i am having same isssue.
@@nicholasbray4854 i also had this issue but now i m good.. doing this exercise only for 10 minutes twice a day u need to be very patience in the beginning i got recovered within a month doctor had advised me for surgery procedure but i denied and tried this exercise exceptionally i recovered it was like miracle..u also try i bet u also gonna be fine..
@@aadilshaikh2499 just follow my instruction as i mentioned above
@@shahdclasher2057 mine started 2 weeks ago, and started PT 2 days ago. Ive been considering the surgery for tunnel release mainly because I am limited to 40 PT visits per year and I have injuries in knees, back, shoulders, chest, and hips. So my main concern was if PT dosnt help the nerve issue, and I end up needing the surgery anyway and will have to do PT anyway, why not just do surgery straight off the bat so I dont use up valuable PT sessions. But I will give PT 2-4 weeks and see how I feel. I just dont want to wait too long before I lose function in my fingers permanantley.
I've been in pain for 2 years and the plate stretch did it for me thank you so much
A heart felt thank you to all of those involved in delivering this information.
Wow I have had serious tingling, numbness and pain in all my fingers for over a month... just did about 30 seconds of these exercises while watching the video and felt immediate relief! Thank you so much!
Just did these exercises and my hand/arm feel so much better already! Thank you!
Thank you so much for creating this video. It took about 2 months of consistently doing the exercises but it worked out great.
This completely cured some type of elbow pain I was having in my left arm while flexing. I think it was the plate exercise specifically. Thanks a ton!
I've been leaning on my elbows a lot so I tried this. My arms feel so much better! and relaxed
i can't even describe how relieving this video was.. i haven't personally seen a doctor about it but i could already tell this was what i had. these exercises have ceased my pain that's been occurring these past two days. thank you sooo much for putting this up.
These exercises are amazing! Thank you so much for putting them on UA-cam!
Thanks so much for sharing these exercises, I'd been having trouble with ulnar nerve entrapment the last couple weeks and these are definitely helping to relieve the issue.
Thanks so much for posting this helpful exercise! I am a classical pianist trying to heal an injury to my ulnar nerve. This felt so good!
Thank you so much! I don't have anymore numbness after these exercises.
WOW, thank you, it's been 2 days and I am already feeling some relief.
I usually don’t comment on videos but you left me with no choice but to thank you. I’m feeling better already after trying the exercises for only 2 minutes. Thank you so much.
I have used these exercises in the past with great success and am back to use them again. These are very easy to do and very helpful. I share this video with people a lot.
Really glad I stumbled on this video. All the exercises are explained really well and seem to have helped my cubital tunnel heal faster. Thank you!!
I've been doing tai chi for health, with slow smooth and continuous movements but never realized how much I've been 'flossing' the nerves. Thank you for the video!
I just tried these exercises and felt immediate relief. Thank you so much.
Thank you!! I’ve been searching for other options to surgery... this is the best video I’ve found yet!!
These exercises are good but they are costing me a fortune in dishes.
:-D
🤣
I got fired from Applebee’s but my nerves feel great 🥰🥰
nice
Hahaha
I saw immediate improvement from being unable to lift my pinky to full movement. I was so worried, this really felt like a miracle thank you all for sharing this knowledge
Started having discomfort in the same areas. I work a desk job and ride a motorcycle for about 8 out of 12 months. These exercises have helped a lot. Thank you for you knowledge and help.
These are great, simple exercises. Thank you!
thank you soooooo much. i recently was in a cast for almost 2 months w a complete fracture of the distal end of the radius, but its been my ulnar nerve that has been affected. I am a therapeutic bodyworker, and i get occasional shooting sharp pain w only certain movements, but def its my ulnar nerve that is affected. However, discussing w all manner of health care professionals, me being very specific about what my issues are and what functionality i'm lacking, its like no one wants to listen. even the hand therapist i went to gave me exercises that haven't done anything for my primary issue.
i've never heard of nerve flossing before, but it makes total sense, and after watching this and trying it, i can tell already it is going to help. thank you so much for posting. i wish i live closer.
Thanks, the exercises really helped right from the start! Experienced some pain relief right away. Thanks so much for sharing!
THANK YOU!!! I've been in considerable pain for the past two days now, and tension on my right shoulder/elbow/wrist for several years. I tried the exercises as the video was playing and can already tell they will help get the ulnar nerve away from irritation.
This is fantastic and has helped me, glad people like you guys exist
Thank you guys so much. Most places charge for these types of things, but your free information videos are a help to everyone and a shining example of using the internet to help others.
Wow! Thank you so much for putting these on youtube. I am in so much pain and I really feel some relief doing these. Thank you!
Hello! I am a Registered Dental Hygienist (15 years) who has undergone a right shoulder impingement/bone spur surgery, and a De Quervains surgery on the right wrist. My X-rays show several bulging discs, severe loss of neck curvature, a rotated pelvis, and scoliosis. I am no stranger to PT and ART. Your nerve gliding videos and tutorials have been MONUMENTAL in reducing much of my chronic discomfort and pain. I want to thank you for sharing your information, as I truly appreciate the time, effort and care you put into these videos.
LOOK UP BONE BREATHING its an ancient Tai Chi practice and I've heard anecdote of an woman with back problems similar to yours who corrected herself after maintaining this practice every day for 3 years. It may be a long time but definitely worth it and you'll likely enjoy the gradual improvements as time goes on. Also look up Joe Dispenza for self heaing with the mind. He has a book about it called Becoming Supernatural. This guy fixed his back fully through thought alone after getting hit by a truck and refusing surgery. You can find his interviews on youtube. ENJOY!
The first set of stretches that Sam demonstrated really help me the most. It's nice to be able to start feeling my little finger again!
Did you do them every day? And how long did it take to get relief?
Me too
These stretches have been a huge help for me. Thank you so much for posting this video.
just a couple stretch sessions and limited use of wrist paired with anti-inflammatory drugs and I'm already feeling back to normal, amazing!!!! THANK YOU!!
Thank you guys!... I was able to sleep without numbness in my last two fingers after almost a year of having the symptoms every night. I really appreciate your video. :)
Y'all are amazing, instantly felt relief in a numb pinky. Bless you all and thank you for sharing!!
seems like just the video i have been looking for, all the exercises had an immediate impact, and im hoping will help keep me loose in the long run, thank you.
Thank you all ,these were the best instructions ever,I am grateful 🙏🙏🙏
wow, those first two flossing exercises honestly instantly relieved most pain/tingling in my ring and pinky finger. I usually don't comment on videos but thank you for posting this Kinetic Health! I will be passing this knowledge along to friends and family who ask what to do about this issue.
Oh my goodness. I've been having problems for at least 2 months. Definitely going to try these exercises. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much , I had Cubital tunnel release two years ago, and have been suffering on and off since , I tried these exercises for the first time today I can already feel the difference, This is the video to watch.
THANK YOU!
This really works! Last night I slept through the night and my fingers didn't go numb!
So appreciative!!!
Thank You!
Thanks so much for this great video! I've had numbness in my left pinky and ring finger for about 3 years. I ride dirt bikes and at times it was hard to grip my left handlebar properly because of the numbness.
I had no idea it was the ulnar nerve that caused this.
I have the feeling back in my pinky and ring finger after doing the flossing exercise just a few times. I also have better grip strength in my left hand now.
Thank you!!!!
Fantastic video! This helped me about a year ago, and I had forgotten the entire issue I had until I just started having the same problem at my inner left elbow the other day. I realized how much it seemed to change when I did some stretches, and remembered this video. INCREDIBLE relief after just doing the exercises a few times!! BRAVO!
Immensely helpful. Many Thanks !
I wish the other members of medical fraternity inspire from you and post such invaluable advise online to help alleviate the patient's pain !
nice!! thank you..relieved my pain in my elbow in 2 minutes..that i have been living with for 4 months..will continue with the exercise's daily..especially before work..truly happy to find relief!
I had an accident a few years ago and severed my ulnar nerve, artery and tendon, some of these excercises were a part of my physical therapy and really helped!
Amazing video. Thank you. I hope this exercises will freeing me from pain in elbow.

Thank you for this video, have been very helpful. Didn't needed surgery! :D
Thanks, these exercises have helped me.
THANK YOU for posting this :D
This totally helped me. Thanks!
Hey guys,
I found your video while doing a Google search a few months ago... I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am to you for putting this online. Physiotherapists and osteopaths had given me the correct diagnosis (my ulnar nerve was stuck) but couldn't help me with my problem. I immediately started feeling better when I first did your exercises (and specifically the "waiter's plate" exercise). Again, thanks so much for doing this and keep up the good work!
WOW THIS REALLY WORKS. THANKS!!!!!
Wow. I just found you with a google search for ulnar nerve compression. These exercises are fabulous. I'm subscribing right away. Very interested so see what else you have for us. Thank you so much!!
Thank you for these, I tried them and got relief fast.
Thanks for posting this. I've been resisting having the recommended surgery in hope of finding a treatment. I'm hoping this works.
thanks! this worked brilliantly for me!
wow I feel immediate relief! Thank you!
Thank you Sam, the palm over ear exercise has definitely helped
Thank you very much Brian Abelson and your team.Its like god sent you guys to relieve my shoulder and neck pain which I have been suffering for so many months. Specially the Tai Chi Excercises are working very well to reduce the irritation i think.Looking forward to watch your upcoming videos with great interest and enthusiasm.Thank you.
Thank you so much for these exercises.. I've been suffering from cubital tunnel syndrome the past week and you really helped me.
Dr. Evangelos Mylonas, παντού υπάρχει ένας Έλληνας ρε πατρίδα! :)
I have bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. I have started to get cubital tunnel syndrome in both hands as well. Just yesterday it was really flaring up in my right arm. I did these exercises and the next day I felt much better. It started flaring up this morning in my left arm and I repeated those exercises for my left arm and I already feel better. Thank you for showing us these exercises.
Been in pain for over a month and as soon as I started these exercises I started to feel.instant relief. My God Thank You!!!
You are welcome!
Thanks. I had lost a lot of flexibility in my arm and wrist because I was afraid of hurting myself due to my Deypeutren's Contractions. Ends up my ulnar was the issue. These exercises expand upon what my doctor/pt had shown me and having them on video is a great help.
That eye mask thing just helped me instantly. Thanks!!!!!
thanks for the video, and the broken dish. God bless you all in this clinic
Super grateful for this video!
Thanks for watching!

Thank you very much.
Felt instant relief in my traps. Have tricep and trap pain for almost 10 years now. Hopefully this will help
Thank you so much doctor brian
i can practically feel the release! great video
thank you so much for this. I am a bodywork therapist and yoga instructor and recently sprained my sprained my wrist due to repetitive stress. After the sprain healed and the swelling subsided I was left with a numb tingling on the ring finger. I have been doing exercises and movement that has probably kept it from getting worse, but these specific exercises are stellar!
Thank you so much for this video. I tried the exercises and I could feel a relief after the exercise with the plate :)
I've had pain in my neck for months, tried these exercises and got relief within a few hours!!!!😯
I have problems with ulnar nerve on my left arm for almost 5 years. I am 24 years old and recently I hit my arm just in the elbow directly in the nerve...Nasty feeling :/ now I do these exercises and I can proudly announce that they really help, even the first day now I experience a great relief. Thanks to people like doctor Abelson for posting videos like this.
How are you feeling now?
Renz Drew It's good for now. I'm avoiding to support my arm when sitting on the desk on my elbow. And all is good now. Going to the gym and also exercising the forearm helps me a looot!
Middlestep [official] did you have any weakness?
Wow, that feels better just after going through one routine of this. I have a typing/desk job, this felt great!
I'm having ulnar nerve entrapment for thee last 3 weeks, and i was quite tensed and even thought that its never gonna go away. But yesterday i found your this video, and did all the exercises for nearly 3-4 times and slept with a belief that i will be OK tomorrow morning and now i'm feeling a 100 times better. No pain at all, and i only feel a bit of numbness in 2 fingers while holding things... Rest is OK 100%, i dont even remember i have UlnarVein Entrapment.
Thanks for the video !

Thank you for posting this video!
Hey thanks so much for this helpful video. I just started having ulnar nerve compression issues and am relieved to see that there is something I can do for this problem.
I like how you got different therapists to show a different exercise. Made it very engaging. Thanks!
Oh heck, you're in Calgary too. I'll give you a call :)
Love this video helps me A LOT GOD BLESS U GUYS
I am so happy I found this! I bike at least two hours a day and on a recent 7-hour ride I lost all feeling in my ring and pinkie finger. I noticed a drastic improvement upon doing these exercises for the first time, and after a week of doing them every second day my hand is getting closer and closer to back to normal, thank you!!
Going to try these exercises. ..thank you for sharing.
Thank you i feel relieved, the pain is already going away
Awesome video! Saved me a trip to the hospital
thanks, I really needed those!
Wow these are amazing. I've looked for stretches and exercises for the ulnar nerve but found nothing that targets it as well as this. I definitely feel it in my compressed ulnar nerve and I expect this to work wonders soon.
How are your symptoms now?
Thanks for this, folks.
Thank you so much for the video, it helps a lot!! Feeling better already :)
