...tennis elbow?

Sat here popping pills, and with a tubigrip on.


Whatever it is, its gay.  And painful.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Stop being a nancy boy. Tennis elbow is for girlies.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

When you lose a major limb I'll have more sympathy.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

RSI on the elbow joint. Suffered from it from mid 20,s to late 40,s due to being too thick to do anything but manual work.
Have been happy not to have it for the last 13 years. Got enough other aches & pains to be going on with.

What has Jaime been repetitively doing with his elbow?

It started a week or 2 ago, but I've been ignoring it and carrying on doing what I always do.  And now wish I'd taken advice when it first happened, as it smarts a bit now

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

I can't imagine what would require both wrist and elbow movement.

Oh.....you didn't actually mention the word 'wrist'

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Feels like a big red hot needle has been stuck into your elbow joint. Not the most pleasant sensation.

Suffered with it in the past, like you I ignored it until it got far more painful. 

[Rangie]

Extremely painful , used to lift a lot of weights years ago & powerlift had pain in both elbows had painkillers + hydrocortisone injections into my elbows, my doctor eventually refused to inject me anymore took his advice & started swimming instead.

[TheBoy]

And now been stabbed in the other arm with the anti 5g oxford thing, and thats now gone dead*.  So properly 'dangle berries'ed, grrr.


*obviously it could also mean the ticker has thrown in the towel.

After several injections of something which didn’t cure it, I had an operation to expose the tendon which was then scraped to remove inflamed tissue. I think, as I was out at the time. It did fix it.

[Doctor Gollum]

Out? Or out out?

[Shackeng]

Out? Or out out?

out out.

[BazaJT]

There we are then all we need is an OOF meet and someone to bring a Stanley knife and we'll have TB sorted in no time

[Doctor Gollum]

Out? Or out out?

out out.

That's good, I can still feel the doctor scraping the cartilage on my nose following the grinder incident...

Self inflicted, so sympathy isn't justified...

There was an amusing story with this operation. On checking in to the hospital I was required by a doctor to sign a disclaimer, which, in the small print, allowed anyone other than the consultant to carry out the op. Not happy with this, I crossed that section out before signing, and said doctor was somewhat discombobulated.
Arriving at theatre the following morning, feeling quite mellow after the pre-med, the consultant pulled his mask down to identify himself as he leant over, saying with a smile,  “Satisfied?”

[Doctor Gollum]

You were probably the first person to make him turn up for the event

I pondered the same small print before my eye op. Came to the conclusion that if the choice was between the named surgeon or being sent home I would rather have the op.

The only pain I've found worse than tennis elbow is rotor cuff sprain still getting over it from last August ,pain is now only 2/10 the only thing that improved it was private sports physio the GP was useless.

Double compound fracture of Tib / Fib is a tad more painful. 

[Nick W]

Double compound fracture of Tib / Fib is a tad more painful. 

I broke my femur. Even after six weeks of traction my right leg is 20mm shorter than the left.


And it still hurts nearly forty years later

Thankfully up to now I've never fractured anything, always seem to bounce even this week in the garden messing round with the dog he had me over but I escaped injury free.

So did I. I had a metal plate inserted (which I still have)......although it was removed from my leg about 18 months after the accident.

Lovely piece of metalwork.

I told the girls I survived a shark attack.......
