tendion PAAIIINNNN

[falcyou]

fellas-
the tendions in my right wrist are just KILLING me.
to the point where i can barely open a door handle or hold a glass of water...let alone do cable crossovers.

what do you guys take?
i bought chondrodrine/gluclos/msm but that could take weeks to start helping.

i was wondering if there was anything other then IBUPROFIEN to get this pain and swelling down.

Bromelain, msm, omega-3, HGH..
Are you sure it's a tendon? Could it be a nerve (carpal tunnel syndrome)

i was just thinking it was tendion....
you can actually see a slightly swollen area in the underside of my forearm just below the wrist.

on a side note....
i edited my picture in profile edit (made it a badass pic of tyson) and it shows it as my current pic, but when I post...no pic?
anyone know what the deal is?

What makes you think it's the tendon? Did you do something to cause the pain? How long has this been going on, and what are you taking?

Sounds like Carpal Tunnel Syndrome to me, Falco....

Get your doc to take a look at that shit and mull over your options....

Do you mean you changed your 'profile picture'? The one that shows when you post is your 'avatar'.

REST the thing and use Ibuprophen or Voltarol (generic name begens with "diflu...").

Litterally don't do a thing with the hand for a week.

When you are feeling a little better you can do what worked for me:

100rep sets or wrist curls with unloaded barbells. I was amazed at how fast my tendonitis healed.

Ice. At least until the Glucosamine kicks in. There is probably some swelling in the joint (carpal Tunnel or something).

I also have wrist problems - I shave my right wrist and tape it for my workouts (So I don't rip hair out every time). I am a hairy bastard too, so it looks like a mutant hand all shaved!

Good luck.

I used DMSO for years starting back in 1985. My current wife hates the way it makes mmy breath smell so it's gone for good. DMSO is some scary stuff though because you have to make sure you clean the area you want to treat real well. This stuff will take whatever is on your skin into you body and if there is dirt os germs it all goes into your blood stream so you have to be carefull when you use it. Thats one reason why so many people use it for transdermal use, but you need to get over the taste and smell. Never bothered me, just my wife.

Don't get in to a habit of taping. It will only weaken your wrist in the long run.
