I finally figured out that I have a pinched nerve in my neck AND tennis elbow he same time. For the longest time, we thought it was just tennis elbow so nothing we did for the elbow helped very much. What can I do for the neck problem to help the elbow? 3 years 4 weeks ago 348
I can't figure out what is causing my tennis elbow. I have it on both sides (in both elbows). I understand this problem doesn't just affect people who play tennis (I don't play), but I don't get why I have it in both arms. 3 years 4 weeks ago 648
My 13-year-old son got smashed in a soccer game by a player on his own team. He came off the field with his elbow stuck in a bent position. Turns out he has some problem called congenital radioulnar synostosis. The surgeon is saying they will have to open the elbow to fix it. Why can't it just heal on its own like other injuries? 3 years 5 weeks ago 523
I'm a die-hard baseball fan. I played on local league teams myself but finally had to throw the towel in last year. I'm only 35 but I just kept getting one injury after another. I see guys in their 40s still playing in the major league. How do these players keep it up? What's their secret? 3 years 6 weeks ago 306
I'm a second-string pitcher in the minor league hoping for a break and step up. But I've started experiencing elbow pain that the team doc thinks may be a torn ligament or at least a chronically irritated tendon. I could have surgery early and head the problem off at the pass. Or I could have a series of steroid injections to get me through until I get the boot up. What should I do? 3 years 6 weeks ago 291
