I work as a self-employed construction contractor. He ruptured his biceps tendon at the elbow while lifting something heavy. How long before he can return to work? With him being gone, we are all off work. I can't afford to be without employment for more than a week before I'll have to find something else. 36 weeks 6 days ago 174
My husband is a carpenter and developed elbow swelling after I dug a splinter out from the back of the arm. It wasn't a very big sliver but he's got a 101-degree temperature today and says it feels like he has the flu. The elbow is swollen and red. What kind of home treatment can we apply? 40 weeks 4 days ago 232
I bumped my elbow on a sharp piece of metal at work and ended up with an elbow infection of all things. They call it septic elbow bursitis. I'm on antibiotics but I'd like to get off as soon as possible. How long should I be taking these meds? 40 weeks 4 days ago 233
I read somewhere that chronic tennis elbow isn't really the result of inflammation. I'm wondering if the same thing is true for my knee pain from arthritis. Is it possible I don't really have active inflammation in that knee? 46 weeks 6 days ago 182
I've been a baseball pitcher on a local level since I was in third grade. But now in my late 30s, I'm starting to get some weird symptoms. At first, it was just a cold sensation in the ring and pinkie fingers of my pitching hand. Now I'm noticing I can't throw as fast or as accurate as I did even last season. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do? 50 weeks 4 days ago 210
