Ahhhh I’m sorry. Been dealing with tennis and golfers elbow for years. Once it starts, it persists for a very, very long time. You should focus on strengthening your forearms as much as possible and do twisting motions. Tons of exercises online - they’ll help. Use ice after any activity and ibuprofen for anti inflammatory. Doc told me to take ibu for 5-10 days when I first had it. Good luck!

I will try it

I feel you. Get you some exercise bands and YouTube some exercises for this. I lift weights regularly and I find that shoulder presses really help strengthen this area. Resistance bands are really good for this, too.

I had the same issue. Shooting pains going down my arm and through my pinky and ring finger. Type in “ulnar nerve exercises” on YouTube and it’s the first video.

Don’t ever use your trackpad on your laptop. Always a mouse.

The book Pain Free by Pete Egoscue was the first thing that stopped my daily pain. This was after 2 rounds of PT that made no difference. The book looks really old and like a scam; but it worked so well for me and has worked for multiple friends.

Daily yoga is what keeps me from having almost any pain. I wasn’t a believer in any of the benefits of yoga until I got incredibly desperate from years of pain, and now I never skip a day.

The book above has a “daily maintenance” section but it’s just way too long (like 30-45 minutes a day). So I used it to take away the more acute pain then switched to yoga for 15 minutes a day maintenance.

During the beginning of 2020 I started using an app called downdog. I highly recommend. It took the effort out of planning a yoga session and just let me do it. I did it intermittently at first but have now done it daily for 1 1/2 years.

My arm had gotten so bad I stopped being able to straighten it, and now it can go completely straight! That was one of the big things that kept me going.

Get a theraband flexbar (red) and look up the tyler twist - it was easily the most effective thing i did for it.
