I have a question about a hyperextended elbow. My best friend hyper extended his elbow while in a football game tonight, he continued to play until the game was over. He has an important game next friday!
How long will it take!
Thanks!
I’m doing a report for my Anatomy class, and I keep reading up on hyperextension, but what i can’t figure out is what does it do to the joints specifically? Do the ligaments stretch too far? Is there pressure between the humerus and the ulna? (Are there ligaments between the humerus and the ulna? I believe yes, but I can’t find a proper diagram.) Also, if there are any diagrams of a hyperextended elbow (also can’t find those) that would be an enormous help. Thank you!
I hurt my elbow awhile ago. I think it’s a hyperextended elbow, since the pain is in the same spot where I did it once before. But I also had tendinitis in the same wrist that keeps crawling up the arm. I’m curious if the two injuries are easy to differentiate.
