 | Elbow Pain Hi I am hoping someone can give advice on the cause and hopefully remedy for elbow pain. The pain is in the back of the elbows and restricts me from doing any heavy tricep excercises. The severity of the pain increases when attempting to do french press or seated dips to the level of now totally avoiding these excercises. I hope someone can advise.. Ian |

   | Re: Elbow Pain I too suffer from this. It sounds to me as though you've got joint problems like me. There's a tablet I used to take (which reminds me to get some more) called 'Boron', or 'Bolon' which helped me a little.

| Re: Elbow Pain I got it from a nutritional centre. Pretty much any decent health store will sell it.

| Re: Elbow Pain SOunds like your triceps tendon, I have had this also and it is an absolute bugger as every tricep and chest exercise is miserable whilst it hurts! PArticualrly avoid dumbell pullovers for chest, this exercise causes tendonitus due to overstretch in those prone to it. Warm up your triceps well before any chest/triceps exercise and stretch the tricep afterwards by reaching up and behind your head, pressing lightly on the elbow with your other hand. The Cissus etc may help with your current problem but do the above to avoid future grief. SD

| Re: Elbow Pain You may want to check your wrists that they are not hyperextending when you are doing your movement. A hyperextension of the wrist will pull on the tricep tendon. http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/cy...tendinflam.htm http://www.etricep.com/tricep-tendonitis.html

| Re: Elbow Pain It's possible that you have strained one of your forearm muscles as a lot of them originate on the outside of the elbow (anterior surface of the shaft of the radius). These muscles include; pronator teres, palmaris longus, flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor carpi radialis, flexor retinaculum & palmar aponeurosis. Without wishing to confuse, I am trying to show that there are a myriad of muscle attachments there so the problem is determining what's hurt. I suggest you try doing some wrist flexor movements with the elbow locked straight (but not with the tricep contracted hard). If the pain is still there during this movement, this would probably rule out the tricep and would point to a forearm flexor strain.
