Anyone Ever Have Tendinitis?

Ramenth- Thanks for the stretching exercises! I just tried them and they really DID seem to help.

This is all very frustrating. I'm 52 this month, and in the best shape of my life, and that includes when I had perfect scores on the physical fitness test while in the Marines. Who knew that doing 130+ pull-ups, four times/week wasn't good for you?! DUH!

Thank my wife, as she just told me to tell you. :grin: Like I said, she's an OT and upper body rehab is part of her job. Those exercises are courtesy of her, as well as a few others I have to do to build strength in my hand again.

I know about frustrating. Until I can afford to get the surgery done and the rehab following it'll take, this is going to be something I live with. Stretching before, during, and after each time I use an air tool. Or the weed trimmer or the hedge clippers, even the lawn mower. Impact gloves to absorb the vibration. Ibuprofen for the swelling. And long sessions of the wife kneading the lactic acid bubbles out of my forearm muscles because the muscles can't properly absorb the oxygen anymore. Feels like you're popping bubble wrap under the skin.
