Really?? Tennis elbow?? Now??
ad
I'm about two weeks out from starting my cycle and I'm self diagnosed with tennis elbow. Anyone else have this problem? I bought this ball thing with stretchy bands that is supposed to help out and strengthen the tendon (left arm) but it still sucks. Any suggestions or a CURE would be great??
Current treatment:
Motrin twice a day
Tennis elbow pressure band
The exerciser ball with the bands (couple minutes a day)
Just a thought~ has anyone ever heard of using bee stingers to help heal an injury? Supposedly when you (bee) sting yourself, your body creates a natural Cortisone to help heal it... Would this work? Anyone ever heard of it or tried it?
Thanx~ Rome

Use ice for 20 minutes one to three times per day. TENS units help alleviate a majority of the pain and they are not too expensive anymore. Thymosin Beta 4....??
better rest up homie, i had some tendonitis not to long ago, annoying but scary shit
AnonUp that motrin or advil to four times a day . you have to keep the inflamation low. And unfortunately the best thing would be a week off.
Yes I have heard of Bee sting remedies, although Ive never tried it. Go to the local health food store and pick up one of the fliers at the entrance. Usually you'll find an add for it. I think they treat you a couple of times, but then you end up buying your own bees to sting your self as needed.
Heard good things, would like to try it.
I have dealt with that for years brother. I also like to ace bandage it up with tiger balm spread all through it. Also I don't know where you are in your cycles but NPP has be a big help for me with it also. And fact the best help to date. I have gotten cortisone shots that do help but the shots hurt like a bastard.
I feel your pain..literally ! I have terrible tennis elbow in my right arm and every morning prior to lifting I go thru my routine to prepare to train. I apply diclofenac gel and deep freeze gel to the elbow and forearm muscle, tubigrip bandage and an elbow sleeve that has a forearm tightening strap (really helps) and just work through it!
I know its not ideal but other than complete rest, which is never happening for me, I don't know what else to do.
I also do tons of stretches, wrist curls etc whenever I remember throughout the day.
I have it and all I can sadly say is that it gets worse. Its so bad that sometimes I can barely do a single curl on my left arm. A few months ago I actually felt a "pop" and thought I tore something. Its bad bro but I hear that surgery can help. I don't want to do surgery so just deal with it. Sorry I couldn't be much help.
RomanbrandI do not want any surgery! That would totally kill by gains lol. I've really been studying up on tennis elbow and I know it can be turned around but I want some success stories too.
If you are hearing pops in your elbow then you might have some other problems besides tennis elbow, you might benefit from MSM, Glucosamine, Condrition, and fish oil. I have joint problems too, that shit cures me.
