ptownclimber Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Any good recommendations on treatment/recovery? I'm talking about chronic inside (lateral?) tendonitis. I've been resting, done physical therapy, wrist brace, etc. I'm trying acupuncture now. Anything else that has worked for people? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 bromelain as a supplement regular icing arnica gel hydro-contrast therapy (2 min hot, 30 sec cold, 3-5 rounds, end on cold) most importantly is to balance the muscles: push-ups, dips, reverse wrist curls, etc...

tomtom Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Forget the pseudo-science and quackery. Read this: Dodgy elbows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshK Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I've been cursed with Elbow pain for a few years now. I had to lay off any sort of climbing for a while it got so bad. I read the dodgy elbows article the other day and it seemed to describe and identify the specific pain better than anything I'd come across before. I'm going to start the exercise plan he recommends as well and hope for the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Ski Mountaineering and slogging Volcanoes is your best cure. Wrap the rock shoes up in ziploc bags and put away the fruit boots and ice tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kukuzka1 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I played golf once a week or more for 20+years and climbed, when i stopped climbing a couple years ago and bought a computer, I now have the worst tendinitis, which I never had before? hopefully this works, must be my loss of muscle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
