      Hey DocJo! new subscriber. couple of questions. 1. what I think is golfers elbow - main pain is right on the ball of that joint inside/bottom of elbow. sensitive to the touch. on doing the mobilization I can feel it in the muscles in that area. does it sound like golfers elbow to you? 2. I have ordered the bar. is there something i can use for the twist exercise until i receive it? Tried with a rolled up hand towel with limited success. thanks!

      @@Chess2000 the Tyler twist exercise with the Thera bar involves aggressively loading the eccentric portion of the movement. This is generally not trained, which is why it is more susceptible to injury. The tendons are no longer inflamed, but disorganized, so you need to progressively overload the tendons to make them stronger. I now perform a regular elbow routine to prevent this issue from happening again.

    Dr. Jo, I've really found your videos on tennis and golfer elbow to be easy-to-follow and helpful. Now, from tennis, I've got what I think is golfer's elbow. So, I'm doing your golfer's elbow set of exercises. My question: is there any harm from doing both your sets of tennis and golfer's elbow exercises? (I think there is some overlap on the exercises, but certainly the flexbar exercise is different between your two videos.)

    • @AskDoctorJo
      @AskDoctorJo  5 лет назад +1

    My elbow feels very good after a good session of dead hangs, particularly the stiffness which goes away entirely.

    @AskDoctorJo I've had it on my right arm for six years. With cortisone, I had no more pain. I haven't had any pain for 4 years. Now the pain started again in my right arm, and three months later I developed golfer's elbow in my left arm. What could be the reason? I didn't even do any hard work. However, I had the same problem in my left arm. What do you think may be the reason why it is on both arms? I have no pain in my neck or shoulder.

    Dude, you are awesome. Its been about 2 years and change since I have golfed and went to the driving range last Saturday and I lost my focus and hit the ground before the ball and that's when the pain started. I had a golf outing the following Monday so I was determined to still go. Monday came and my arm was a little sore still from previous days and after 18 holes my forearm was swollen by the inner elbow. I came across this vid and had been helping tremendosly. Thanks Dr Jo one more question would you suggest doing these everytime before I golf once I fully recover from this strain?

    Thank you for the video and explanation. I have started to do the stretches as my plan of rest and hoping my elbow would heal itself has not worked. :) The pain I feel is mainly right at the bump on the inside of elbow. Is this typical? thank you

      @AskDoctorJo  4 года назад

      You're welcome. Yes, that is pretty typical. Good luck.

    It seems like I may have this and the stretches and exercises help but I also have a lump that is painful near the elbow. I haven’t come across lumps in my research tho. Also do I have to stop working out?

    Hey Doc! i feel i have golfers elbow, but it seems it is sore slightly higher than your video, my elbow bone fells like i have a match to it when touching and when i ice it turns painful,a sharp pain..so mainly it from the knobby elbow bone and an inch up, been doing your excercises and hoping it gets better soon, thanks....

    • @AskDoctorJo
      @AskDoctorJo  5 лет назад

      If it's slightly in between the knobby area, that is where your ulnar nerve (or the "funny bone") is. It might be more cubital tunnel syndrome. I have a video for that too if you want to research it and see if that's more what you think you might have.

    Such a helpful video, thank you! Do you think I should do these exercises - I had an inflamed ulnar nerve with mild pinky tingling and after a week of NSAIDs and complete rest I don’t get the tingling anymore but all of a sudden I have golfer’s pain in the elbow. Is it possible the nerve inflamed the tendons or something? I’m really worried because I’m an artist and I can’t work now.. do I have to make a full recovery before going back to work? Thank you so so much for your time!

    • @AskDoctorJo
      @AskDoctorJo  4 года назад

      Thanks, and you're welcome! Unfortunately, I don't know those answers since I can't evaluate you. In general, gentle stretches and exercises can be starting right away as long as they don't increase the pain.

    Dr. Jo what is the normal recovery time to expect when doing these treatments?

    • @AskDoctorJo
      @AskDoctorJo  Год назад

      It's different for everyone depending on how severe it is, how long you've had it, and how your body reacts to treatment.

    I have both lateral and media, in both hands - in varying degrees. I have stick like forearms, that is. It's mostly the forearm that suffers. And sometimes its the lateral and at other times its the medial that flares up. Are the exercises much different in reality? Will these work for both?

    • @AskDoctorJo
      @AskDoctorJo  5 лет назад

      Did your doctor or PT rule out it coming from your neck? Any time it's both sides, it's always worth looking further up the chain like the neck and/or shoulders. Some of them are slightly different because they are different muscles being affected, but many of the stretches are the same since you always want to stretch the whole area.

    • @ribusgan

      They initially occurred at different points of time and as expected, the tears never heal completely. I've had discussions with orthopedics and therapists and I surmise it's to do with weak (thin) forearm which got injured somehow. In fact I got my tennis elbow playing golf. And the Golf elbow could have been triggered by keyboard usage.

    Dr. Jo when do use the simian brace--when you're doing these rehab exercises or all the time till it feels better or do you even wear it after you return to resistance training, like if I'm doing pullups?

      @AskDoctorJo  4 года назад

      Thanks! Most of them overlap anyway, so unless they feel like they are irritating an area, doing both should be fine.
