Oh man, my arm hurts. I thought I'd slept on it wrong a couple weeks ago, but that usually clears up in a day . The problem I'm having is pain from the outside of the elbow on my right arm and it travels up to my middle fingers. I know of a few people who have experienced this and say there is a bad that one can wear around the fore-arm that can help to get rid of the pain and possible put all back in order, but I haven't explored the idea yet. It's starting to become difficult to grip hand tools. Anybody had any experience with this? Mine has been a twenty year experience. Diagnosed as tennis elbow. Wore the band around my arm, which helps when it acts up. It comes and goes. Sometimes a nuisance, sometimes nearly unbearable. Took two cortisone shots in it. Those hurt more than the tennis elbow. The first did nothing. The second helped a little. Doc said only thing after that was surgery. That knot that one hits on the outside edge of the frontal part of the elbow has grown over the years. Still brings me to tears when I whack that. What to do? Avoid all things that send a shock up your arm, like tennis, hammering, slapping your puppy, things like that. But then, sometimes everything bothers it. And some little nothing sets it off. Probably feel better when it quits hurting. Steve |
