Hey Bro's,
I've been playing hardball for the first time in 22 years and developed a bad case of bicep/forearm tendonitis from pitching too hard too fast. I've tried everything from topical DMSO to Chondrotin/Glucosamin, MSM, Bromelain, Devil's claw, and Motrin/asprin as well as analgesic rubs. Even went to a PT for 6 weeks.
Still I would have severe pain even after resting 2 weeks. As soon as I played a game or threw hard I would feel the pain return.
Last week I went out and bought some 100% Emu oil at Vitamin Shoppe.
I'm sure you can get it cheaper on line but I was driving by the store to the batting cage and said what the hell, let's try one more crap solution.
Well holy ****, from the first time I rubbed it on my arm I had no real pain. Some achiness here and there but no real throbbing or sharp pain. And this is 2 days after a game when it was hurting while throwing so I know it wasn't just healing.
I've threw off the mound hard last Wednesday and today still applying the Emu oil
before and after a workout and probably 3 times a day throughout the day.
NO PAIN whatsoever after throwing.
Anyway for you guys with tendonitis issues this may help you too.
I wouldn't have believed it but I'm gonna keep using it and update the thread on any positive or negative effects.
