| had my cortisone jab today | | i had it at 11:20am,it's now 18:15 and it really hurts now,my arm is freezing cold as i can't move it and my fingers are swelling because i have to keep my arm hanging down beside me,but if it stops my tennis elbow it'll be worth it,but the doctor did say that i need to find out what caused it as if i carry on doing whatever it was i did to cause it,it may come back,problem is because i'm ill i don't do much apart from clean the house and cook the dinner,so i don't know what caused it | |
| | Help for tennis elbow... | | What is the best way to get tennis elbow to heal? I have been told that it can take months for the tear in the muscle or tendon to heal. I have to be able to use my arm as I am a school bus driver and a grandmother. I have tried the Capsasin Cream until my arm burned everytime I used it. Now I am using a Lydocain Patch taht was prescribed to me. Great. That helps with the pain, but doesn't promote healing. Anyone have any suggestions? | |

| Help for tennis elbow | | Does anyone have any suggestions for getting tennis elbow to heal? I drive a school bus and am a grandmother, so I have to use my arm every day.How can I promote the healing of a tear in the muscle or tendon when I use my arm non-stop? I have tried the Capsasin Cream but it made my arm burn. I am now using a Lydicane Patch prescribed by the doctor. It does help with keeping pain at bay, doesn't promote healing. Any suggestions? | |

| Has anyone here every had tennis elbow? | | Last year I had tennis elbow in my right arm. I don't know how I got it. I went to physiotherapy but had to stop when the insurance ran out. The pain eventually went away.I have now developed tennis elbow in my left arm (I am right-handed) and it is driving me crazy. My insurance ran out at the end of December but it is now a new year so insurance has picked up again and I am back in physio. The pain is becoming excruciating. It actually woke me up at 5am. I am getting so frustrated. I just want this to stop.I remember my mother having tennis elbow 30 years ago. I remember her getting a cortisone shot and coming home crying from the pain of the shot. I have considered having the cortisone shot as I have heard it works, but the memory of my mother scares me.Any input? | |
