I am having a physical therapist work on my elbows. They tend to flare up whenever I spend too much time on the computer. She has given me a special gadget I can use to rub my tendon that really seems to do the trick. I forgot to ask the last time I was in the clinic how and why this works so well. Can you offer any explanation? 1 year 5 days ago 166
Have you ever heard of "computer elbow?" I think that's what I've got. I switched using the mouse at my home computer from the right to the left hand because my neck was bothering me. Now my left elbow is aching, aching, aching. What do you suggest? 1 year 5 days ago 236
I took my 13-year-old son in to see a specialist because he was complaining of elbow pain and it was affecting his pitching for his team. The surgeon poked and prodded until I was sure if the kid didn't already have a problem, he would develop one. Is all this type of hemming and hawing around really necesary? I'm just wondering. 1 year 4 weeks ago 270
I was pulling weeds in my garden by yanking on them with both hands when I heard and felt a pop in my left elbow. It swelled up and when that went away I find I can't straighten my elbow all the way. It just feels stuck. What could be causing this? What should I do? 1 year 4 weeks ago 465
