Unsprained S1 Episode 11: 3 Most Common Elbow Injuries In A Climber & What You Can Do About Them.

Un-Sprained - A podcast by Dr. Lisa Brin

Today we hit the big 3: Triceps tendonitis, lateral epicondylitis, and good old fashioned forearm pain. Ready to compare and contrast between them to figure out what you REALLY have, and what self-care and rehab styles best serve you? (Here's a hint, it really matters especially if you think that elbow brace is doing anything!). Today we hit up the following: >> What to do about forearm contracture, tightness and pain. >> If you feel that PUMP that keeps lasting. >> Elbow pain near and around the bony knob. >> Pain above and behind the elbow joint itself. >> The where/why/how of elbow straps and what they do. >> What tools you should get and how much you can spend. >> Where to start with application (how much and when). >> How to do Time off. What components of it do you actually need? >> How to know if you are improving from your "what hurts' lists. >> And more. A must listen if you have elbow issues, this podcast might just change your whole approach to your issue (and also, ahemm, solve why you aren't healing). Tried EVERYTHING for and it just won't heal? Perhaps the game plan is wrong. -We hit up action-plans for each of the three. -I offer step-by-step recommendations for HOW to unravel them, -I get you putting hands on your very own elbow to evaluate where the pain is, what that means, and what you can do to begin implementing these strategies TODAY. We hit up proper time off and I promised a FREE download to evaluate your proper time off, a chapter of my upcoming book Return to Climbing. I hope you enjoy it and give me feedback on what you think!!

In this episode we discuss two different affordable elbow straps the "McDavid 489" ($15) and the "DonJoy Web Tech" ($24). Both work great but heed this warning, DON'T put them over the SITE of pain, instead go distal. We go into detail on the HOW and the WHY in this episode.
