I draw CAD shit all day and get bursitis in the elbow I use the mouse with. Swap arms, get it in the other elbow. The answer is colchicine.
Try a vertical mouse. It puts your whole arm in a more natural position, no rotating the wrist or forearm.
I draw CAD too, 99% mouse use because I cba macros. How can you get issues? Just get a table and chair that work well together and stop sitting like you’re dying. I’ve been doing this shit for 14 years.
>Doing CAD without a trackball
NGMI.
I’ve played FPS games all my life, I’m 35 with zero body problems. I’ve also lifted and played sports all my life too.
Nta but show me a track ball with at least six buttons for macros and I'll switch to a trackball.
I too draw CAD shit all day and get bursitis from resting my elbow on the desk. Bring something to cushion your elbow with, I just bunch up my hoodie.
Why do you lean forward onto the desk?
What's the job? But basically you need to do the reverse of what you do at work. Baseball players, for example, do counter-rotation training in the opposite direction of their bat swing.
Tool and die changing pretty IST job but my elbow has been fricked lately from it and hitting the gym
Ostarine and BPC-157. Just do it.
I just lift through it, it only hurts for the first couple sets and then constantly the next day but totally worth it.
Physiotherapy.
Also, fix your form.
whatever you do don't let a doctor give you a steroid injection
Welcome brother, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.
In all seriousness, I gave myself this by arm wrestling with bad form and tried everything to fix it/work around it for months.
In the end, the only thing that worked was me falling off the wagon and not lifting for a month as I was being a drunk fool. When I came back, it was gone.
>not lifting for a month
Pretty much this
Tendons take much longer to heal than muscle
Theraband Flexbar. Thank me l8r.
Stop doing the shit that causes it. For me it was every single barbell press. Switched to dumbbells and it stopped.
so this actually has a name huh
I got it today for the first time doing seated db OHP. it was slightly worrying but wasn't painful really so I just kept going
could still feel it slightly with tricep rope pushdowns but not at all with lat raises and bicep curls
I'd have to do some provocative testing to be sure, but I don't think you have lateral epicondylitis, aka tennis elbow. If you did have it, you would definitely feel it during bicep curls since that would be loading your extensor tendons and none of the exercises you mentioned feeling pain engage those. You might have medial epicondylitis or golfer's elbow.
try these to see if you have medial or lateral inflammation
you blue collared frick
have fun making $15 an hour working fedex
General treatment is the application of heat to loosen the muscles for stretching and massaging to relieve tension. Use ice to reduce swelling in the region some might suggest using anti-inflammatories in conjunction. If your job has repetitive motions, try and take as many breaks as is practical. Worst-case scenario, you might have to go and get a steroid shot to relieve it, but docs will want you to do therapy before, and everyone responds a little differently to treatments. As you heal general strengthening of the extensors is recommended to avoid reinjury in the future.

Look up an exercise called the "tyler twist". There was a tennis elbow study using it and it was very successful. It's to do with eccentrics n' shit.
Static holds on a pull-up bar with your arms directly vertical above your head. As long as you can. Every day.
