So I've had minor issues with my elbow for ages, but last month I was really active in the gym and out, and my issues with it are reaching epic proportions. It's to the point now where i can barely open doors or jars without shooting pain. I feel like I've practically lost use of this arm.
It's definitely got all the hallmarks of medial epicondylitis..inside elbow pain that sometimes radiates down the forearm. I can feel the tightness in the tendons that run there. Ice, aggressive massage, compression, NSAIDS, I've tried them all and they help, but it's just not getting better. I made the mistake of trying to work through it for a while, now I'm just treating the arm like it's paralyzed, waiting for some signs of improvement.. It's seriously depressing. I even did a transfer at work to try to keep from having to re-injure the thing every other day.
Has anyone had golfers or tennis elbow this bad? If so, how long did it take you to get some functionality back? Is there a chance that this could be something else? At this point im looking to see a doc over this which i hate to do. Haven't seen a doc in many years, but this is getting ridiculous. I'm even considering trying something like tb500 or BPC at this point. I can't afford to be small and im shrinking fast.
Thanks in advance
