Elbow Tendonitis Archives

Has anyone male or female been in a relationship where they had to maintain a certain sexual position that wasn’t comfortable in order for your partner to reach climax? I have this problem with my wife and don’t know what to do.

I have been with her for over 2 years now and sex with her is like a chore or like exercise most of the time (or some unpleasant combination of both). I basically have to maintain a push-up like position on top of her in order for her to climax. I have to do this for 45 minutes to 2 hours. I’m not talking about missionary position; it’s literally like doing push-ups. I haven’t had many sexual partner (I’m in my mid-twenties and have only been with 6 people), but I have always been told that I was a good lover and my penis is definitely larger than average. However it seems like there is nothing I can do that will have her reach climax besides this uncomfortable position. I try other things but she will basically guide me back into that push-up position.

I am a good actor I guess and always pretend like I enjoy it, but last night she caught me not enjoying it and she was upset. She was menstruating (and I don’t like having sex then), I’m getting over tendinitis in the elbow, and I had to stop halfway to take care of our crying infant. When I came back from taking care of our baby, I could not get back in to the act of enjoying it and she busted me faking (I know this is usually the woman’s job). Has anyone been in a similar situation, looking for advice and suggestions from both sexes? I feel like a creep talking about this kind of stuff (guess I am kind of a prude), but any feedback will be appreciated.

I’ve been working out, pretty steady for a month or so. I find that my joints are getting sore from my workouts (feels like tendinitis). I’m feeling it in my left elbow on a consistent basis. I’ve been checking my workout form, and everything seems to be by the book (no improper strain on tendons or joints). I take no supplements whatsoever, just good ol’ fashioned high protein/carb foods after my workouts. I hear that there are natural supplements out there that people take to prevent joint pain, but I dunno…I’m not a pill guy. Any suggestions on what I should do?

About 4 weeks ago i started to notice pain on the side of my calf muscle on both legs. Its almost like a bruise that you cant see.
And the the pain worsens with exercise instead of eases as the muscles warm up. My brother said it might be a shin splint but i have no clue.

Also, my ankle and knee joints have started to ache constantly.
I’ve had tendinitis on my elbow from throwing the football A LOT. So i was thinking that maybe i have a high risk for this and now that i started school sports (lots of running on an uneven football field) the other joints get tendinitis too.

Or is it possible that i have rheumatoid condition?

Also, with the ankle ache, when i start the warm up run, my ankle clicks for a while and its very uncomfortable.

Any possible diagnosis? Thanks!

I’m a pitcher and have been experiencing some elbow soreness recently. My physical therapist said it was tendinitis and I’ve been doing arm exercises and getting deep tissue massages. I pitched in a game two days ago and threw 30 pitches. During pitching my arm felt fine, but afterwards it hurt so I iced it. Yesterday it still was sore so I took four motrin and it feels great now. If the motrin keeps working I’ll take it but I was wondering if four was too many. By the way I’m 15 and I’m 6′0 tall and 205 pounds.

I have tendinitis in my left elbow. Anyone have any suggestions to help heal it. Any exercises or diet changes.

I believe I have whats called tendinitis in my elbows. Its not constant pain or anything but when I workout my triceps I notice the discomfort especially when doing skull crushers and tricep extensions with heavy weights (4 - 8 reps). I believe I got this from doing bad form with these exercises in the past. What are my options to relieve this pain during these exercises so I can the best results from my workouts.

Ok well I was diagnosed by my pediatrician a year ago that I had Medial Epicondylitis, or elbow tendinitis. I am only 13, and symptoms happened after I pitched in a baseball game. So I went to the doctor and he diagnosed me. Now it’s about 12-13 months later and im back to playing baseball. My elbow has been bothering me the whole year. It is my inner elbow by the way. I can throw, without harm, but after a while, I’d say after 15 throws, I feel the pain in my inner elbow again. I cannot pitch, my elbow feels really delicate and uncomfortable compared to my left elbow.

I have been doing physical exercises like pushups arm curls occasionally, and some Advil, and Aleve. Nothing really works, so I am kind of scared that I might need surgery for it. Is it risky? Like will I ever be able to play baseball again?

I do have mild pain when I make a muscle too.

The pain is on the outside of my elbow

I think I’m getting old. After years of activity my injuries are starting to build up. I have now had three knee surgeries, a shoulder surgery, a torn tendon in my foot and I currently have tendinitis in both my elbows. I got the tendinitis doing a set of bench presses with what was for me a heavy weight.

Consequently, I have decided to change my goals. I want to find a weight program that will work my entire body, will not cause injury or break me down and will allow me to remain active throughout the year. What are the exercises, how many sets, reps, how much weight, etc, should I do? Anybody have any good programs?

It would be an added bonus if you could come up with something that would work well in training me for mountain bike races during the Spring and Summer.

Thanks so much!

This summer my mom started feeling pain in her right elbow. Later her whole arm would hurt so the doctor said it was probably Tendinitis so she gave her a few exercises to do. Now her joints in her wrist, knees, ankles and toes sometimes hurt. Doctors still don’t know what it could be. Any ideas??

Well somehow my elbow bone is weird, it’s like sticking out and when I play basketball, football, or swim, it hurts on my inner forearm and inner arm. I got it in both arms. I think this happened because I started to workout and did several push ups a day. I’m not really sure what I have but I think it might be Tendinitis. I’ve had this for months now, and I want to workout again but every time I lift something heavy it hurts. I went to the doctor and she told me my tendons were messed up and I had to take Advil and rest until I recover. Is there any other thing I could do to help my elbow? Like some exercises or any equipment that could help support my bone? Thanks in advance.

I used to be an avid weight-lifter in high school, and still dabble every now and then. Later in high school (it must have been very gradual) I noticed that my arms would not unbend all the way. I would actually laugh about it with friends, because it didn’t seem like a big deal at the time, and I figured it was just from working out and having developed muscles. Now, roughly ten years later, my elbows hurt when I lift anything even mildly heavy (groceries, my son, etc.). It is a burning sensation in the elbows, and if I lift something significantly heavy the pain might persist on and off throughout the day. It aches pretty bad, and almost feels like the elbows need to pop but cannot. I have been told by a family doctor that this is probably tendinitis, and he would recommend physical therapy if not for me not having health insurance. He suggests searching for "elbow exercises" on the internet. Does anybody have any experience with dealing with/curing this problem? Apparently is it quite curable. I would love to be able to get into weightlifting again and do simple chores without my elbows aching so badly. Any suggestions or similar stories are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

OK. my eczema experience goes like this..
i was a toddler, i had eczema on my elbows. then it went off.
then i got it around my mouth when i was 12, that was due to stress.
then when i was 13, it disappeared and i was fine.
it came back when i was 14. turmoil year. i had eczema on my face, front of my neck, folds of my arms, the back of my legs. the areas where i sweat. at the start of the year, i was playing a lot of tennis, so i had white spots on my face, people told me they were sweat spots. then suddenly they appeared on my right hand. my baby finger web. one tiny patch of it. then it went off after a while. then suddenly it appeared on my index finger web. just one small patch of it. then it went off. then it appeared on the side of my middle finger. went off again. then came back on the other side. now, i have it real bad. on my index finger web, whole middle finger, and a bit on my baby finger web. how does it randomly just come back?
and it’s only on my RIGHT HAND. my left hand is perfect. and it’s not on the back of my hand either. just on the webs.
i stopped all steroid usage because i started a homeopathy treatment called herose. has anyone heard of it?
to me it sounds like my eczema is a mix of child eczema and some other weird kind.
does anyone have symptoms kinda like mine?
one other thing i noticed. stress is a big factor of it. when i was in bali, my skin was perfect. it just disappeared. smooth. no scars.
plus, it’s soo hard not to scratch. i tried emu cream. which only made me itch worse.
and for some reason when i put lotion on the affected areas (excluding face) it makes me itch worse,

Okies,I asked a q like this before,but my problem is getting a bit more serious @ this stage. My right elbow is SERIOUSLY swollen for the past 2/3 months,and nobody seeme to know whats wrong with it!!=( I’ve gone to a really good orthapedic doc,and he said it was prob bruising or bleeding,and put me ina sling and prescribed anti-inflamatories. So that was grand and we went off,thinking my arm would be as-good-as-new. We made an appt. to see him again after 2 weeks,but my arm was not any bit better. He took x-rays,but they showed no fracture. This was really annoying,because the doc just laughed because he was hiding the fact that he was confused. He said to come bac to him in a few months if I wasn’t getting better. During these months,I was in another hospital,and another doc saw me and he took more x-rays and,again,it showed no fracture. He put it down to tennis elbow,and gave me steroid injections. He said that I’d be better in a few weeks with using the anti-inflamatory gel we have
but the swelling has NOT gone down any bit. I started going to physio,and she doesn’t have a clue whats going on either,but she feels there is something seriously wrong with it. I really don’t know what to do now,and I am in soooo much pain,and the pain is even worse when you don’t know whats wrong with you. We are making an appt with the original doc,but I have a feeling he will say rest,and anti-inflammatories and painkillers(which don’t work anymore)
but I HAVE rested,and done everything I can,but nothings helping!! I really wanna get it sorted,so do you people have any suggestions?? I really need help,its been going on for the past 2-3 months,and I wanna get rid of the pain!!
Please help me,any answers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

I doubt its an infection,because I’m not felling more unwell than usual lol,and its not red or anything,but it is radiating heat..???
And ’singlegal’,thanks,and I have arthritis too,I’m 15. But I will keep trying,and doctors have dismissed me alot too,even in other things,like my ACL,its torn and they said it was something completley different! Thanks a mill.
‘indiarulz’…I would if I could but I can’t. Sori! But I shall describe it: the bone running along the top of the arm(radius?) is 1-3inches more up than on my other arm,and because of this,it looks like it is bent. The bone on the back of my elbow seems quite swollen also…did that help?? oh,and instead of the lower bone in my arm sticking down a bit,it is sticking up into my arm,like its kinda disappeared…

I have tennis elbow and have had 2 cortisone shots within a two week period, is that to much and when can I get another if needed

I am curious and would like others opinions.
I have been dealing with throbbing pain since a accident when a very early teen. Over 20 years now.
I had yet another accident within the last 3-4 years. Causing another host of painful outcomes.
Anyhoo I have been talking with others who do not understand that I do not take so many pain killers as to be "out of it". These people do not understand. The group of peeps (it is a medication group) seam to think one should not feel any pain what so ever at anytime!
I am curious how many people think it is OK to feel….pain. I mean when it gets real bad I do take something. I am deathly afraid of being (or getting) addicted to pain killers!! I have kids that need me. I see how other people are and do not want to be this way.
At the moment if I went to the doctors for my arms (tennis elbow? I have RA) I would have to have very painful injections with needle.
My motto Pain is just a way to no you are alive…..

What is your opinion?
I thought I would add I do have a seizure disorder which makes some pain killers off limits to me.
RA is rheumatoid arthritis, some mornings I can not walk, move.

I got a coritsone injection for tennis elbow and got the "flare" side effect, its been 3 days and now finally starting to feel like it did before the shot. (I can at least bend my arm somewhat now) Not 100%. but at least it dont feel like it’s broke anymore. I swear that shot put me in soooooo much pain. I iced for 3 days and limited activity. But now, how long before the cortisone kicks in and helps my tennis elbow. Am I being impaitent or did this cortisone shot not do the trick?

My mother has tennis elbow and suffers a lot from the pain…. some days she finds it hard to use it, my uncle had it but got it sorted after a injection at the local doctors. My mum is so scared of needles and refuses to have this done… The bone is slighty sticking out and she cant twist it or put pressure on it..Dose anyone know if theres any thing else that could prevent her pain??? Apart from pain killers

Thank-you
