elbow pain

[julius kelp]

what would we call it "curler's elbow"? ha (ouch, hurts when i laugh or otherwise) i have had this discomfort inside the right elbow since last february when i went really crazy on cycle with extra heavy dumbell curls. have been doing the usual joint supports daily & have now added cissus & celadrin. anybody have any good anecdotes for these type of pains?

no bad elbows eh?... well i will say that i cranked up the cissus, & noticed that i felt zero discomfort in the elbow today. i may try a few moderate curls with it in a day or two...

I feel your pain man. Ive been battling tennis elbow for weeks now. I also got mine from curling, specifically hammers and skull crushers. I've had to shut my lifting down for 3-4 weeks now to let it calm down. Get one of them sleeves to put over your elbow when u lift, that helped me also.

I use the sleeves too. It helps but I still feel the pain any time I work triceps. Cissus helps as well.

got the sleeve, it helps a little. good luck bros.

You might want to try using flax oil. It will not work right away but give it some time.

I take 4-5 g's of fish/salmon oil a day and I'm not sure it helps at all with my elbow. I'm sure it helps the other joints some, so I'm not saying its not worth taking it, but prob wont help the elbows much.

I have had tendonitis in my left elbow for about 5 months. I did it doing heavy curls and it killed to even lift 5lbs after that. It is much better now 5 months later, but still hurts some when I try to do hammer curls. I may get a sleeve and see if it helps me.

I still dont understand for the life of me why people are talking about trying to mask or cover up the pain with sleeves, pills, or potions. A few sessions of Active Release will actually fix the problem.

Rest usually always helps and as Pheonix said Active Release has shown promise.

ART/massage+proper exercise technique+rehab exercise.
forget about all the magic pills. this is not even funny.
