Just wondering if there are any good excercises for elbow, I have been getting some sharp pains in the elbow, like the one when you smack your funny bone. Everytime I do Tri exercises, I have been going light, taking advil and using all sorts of tiger balm. Its been about 3 weeks now, and not feeling much better.
Any help would be great.
Thnx

see a doctor....you really cant do to much to make your elbow stronger. also if it gets worse it could be a serious problem but keep ice on it and keep it compact with an elbow pad

sounds like your pinching your nerve or something but yeah you should see a doctor

My advice, take two weeks off all pushing movements. If you still have a problem see a Doctor.

Lower the weight after a few days off and work on your form. You not going to get stronger using your elbows.

Thanks, well take it easy for a couple, then go light. If it persists well had off to the doc.

let it heal up for a week, happens all the time with me

It would be nice if anything healed in a week. If it hurts don't do it. My advice is see a Doctor and take 4 weeks off at least.

im not sure exactley how your pain feels but i have tendonitis in both my elbows and it hurts like a bitch when it gets bad maybe thats what you got. see your doctor and he can tell you try taking some aleve it has naproxen in it itll take away the inflamation if thats what you got dont pay for the expensive shit for it from your doc like i did

should have taken the doc advice right away, was kinda worried that I had tendinitis so I was avoiding the doc, turns out its Bercitus, and was doing all the wrong things to fix the problem. Anyways, elbow is back to about 80 percent in lest than a week. Next time will go to doc sooner, just I always avoid doc until something falls off or breaks.lol.
Cheers
