| JaimeVelo | 2 days | feels fine now. just a little residual bruise. | details |
| YouRNotHere | 2 days | After two days total rest it's feeling at about 95%. I think this injury may be related to dislocated elbow I got back in 1995. Your arm will never be straight again after that injury. | details |

| davelevine | 4 days | The pain was definitely a symptom of playing taiko harder than usual. It took a few days but taking it easy was enough for the pain to go away. | details |

| jennybengtsson | 7 days | details | |
| div | 7 days | Probably was caused by painting walls - different type of movement... | details |
| Duncan | 7 days | details | |
| ernst | 7 days | Slowly healing. Still not full range of motion. Perhaps a lingering shoulder issue. But I am now able to do gentle skate skiing. | details |

| silkychrome | 10 days | brace really helped early days of recovery. most swelling and bruising gone now. 90% ROM back. minimal impact on running or riding. strength in super-flexed position still 50%. but taking flag off since i don't have to baby it any more. | details |
| meli.g. | 10 days | details | |
| J Anderson | 11 days | Knitting + skiing | details |
| Vaala | 11 days | It probably would have paid to have run it under cold water even longer and then iced it up each day for a few more days to stop the blistering. Also would have helped to have bandaged it while exercising. It's still peeling and not 100% but doesn't hurt anymore. | details |
| Markus | 11 days | details | |
| H.Becker | 11 days | details | |
| meli.g. | 11 days | Bitte bitte nie wieder diese mega häßlichen Schmerzen, die mein Finger fabriziert hat!!!!!!!!! | details |
| Torzi | 11 days | Taping, ice, heat, painkillers and avoiding certain exercises. Going to continue exercises till next Appt. With Neil as might as well :) | details |
| the kempster | 12 days | Still sore with some movements, but overall it's much better. definitely ice on it as soon as possible helped with the swelling, and um, don't go to emerg on a sunday night. | details |
| arg | 12 days | Still have some swelling in the bursa, but the elbow is looking 'normal.' | details |
| cobbige | 12 days | still cant click my fingers but allright to run with now:) | details |
| 7492 | 12 days | Gym today and for the first time it didn't hurt, I think it just needed time. | details |
| TeTe | 13 days | details | |
| orienteeringTim | 13 days | details | |
| Luke W | 13 days | rest and avoiding pressure on the bars seemed to work. i think just making a conscious effort not to death grip the bars helped quite a bit. | details |
| TeTe | 13 days | details | |
| IFKekan | 13 days | Jag har egentligen inte haft så stora besvär den senaste tiden, men jag hoppade över ett tennispass för att inte riskera något. Tennisen med Josef gick utan problem, så därför är den läkt. | details |
| KariItkonen | 13 days | details | |
| ink_21 | 14 days | details | |
| Dangerman | 14 days | Pushed too hard back from layoff. Ease into it. | details |
| JennaAH | 14 days | Came back to class two weeks later. More or less recovered, though caution should be exercised when doing pins especially sankyo and nikkyo, as well as jujinage, because there is still lingering pain. | details |
| Jonas Detterfelt | 14 days | details | |
| Bridge | 14 days | details | |
| roschi | 15 days | time | details |
| ahall | 15 days | seems to have cleared up with the use of some Ibuprofen. Don't carry sheets of 3/4 ply and try to move quickly with them is the wisdom..... | details |
| LarryC | 15 days | details | |
| hughmac4 | 16 days | Slow steady use, 3 weeks. | details |
| TeTe | 17 days | details | |
| Herbz | 17 days | Broke it hurt like hell and it was agood idea to go to AandE to get it checked out and put in a splint... Doctor prodded it and proclaimed it fine but to avoid using it intensely for a few days. So i am going mountain biking . note over a year on my right wrist is permanently fucked :) | details |
| Useless Fool | 17 days | details | |
| JesseAH | 18 days | Yeah, swelling etc went down fast. Stayed off it for a while by dr request, but seem to be otherwise fine. Yay. | details |
| Bender | 18 days | ...time | details |
| texas_reckless | 18 days | details | |
| Olly | 19 days | details | |
| orienteeringTim | 19 days | seems recovered | details |
| KanuGirl | 19 days | Ibuprofen helped. The warmth of Florida (Tampa Bay April 8th - 12th, 2011) seemed to losen it up. Paddle on April 8th - focus on arm/wrist straight did not aggrevate it. Following day injury felt better and got progressively better over the course of the trip | details |
| samwell | 19 days | just had to wait it out and tape it when I was playing | details |
| easy-rider | 20 days | Avoid impact and time, time, time... | details |

| rockman | 24 days | don't land on your thumb when you fall over on rock | details |
| noalittle | 24 days | Finger healed. x rays confirm | details |
| gret_j | 24 days | cover and keep from drying out | details |
| Georgia | 24 days | I think I can probably call this recovered. Improved with approximately 1 week of rest after 24hr race. Focus on releasing right hand grip on paddle seemed to help and improve paddling technique | details |
| BIGpete | 25 days | Have taken it pretty easy over the last few weeks. Hand occasionally is sore, but nothing that is going to stop me from continuing training | details |
| o'man | 25 days | pretty much OK now, haven't had a pain for a little while - mind you I haven't really done anything with it since the weekend... | details |

| texas | 42 days | got a brace, left it alone and just tried not to use it | details |
| Dangerman | 42 days | Caused by big increase in volume (King of the Cape) and kept going by poor paddling technique. Luckily, fixed technique and wrist seems all good now. | details |
| smoke | 43 days | still hurts if i put any weight directly on elbow, otherwise - fine | details |
| Hugginator | 46 days | details | |
| furlong47 | 47 days | details | |
| michalmy | 47 days | Rancef 1500mg/d (Keflex) from day 8-21. | details |
| Dooby | 51 days | Still not 100% on June 24th, sometimes can feel it, and strength in my fingers is probably not back to normal if for example I needed to open a tight lid. | details |
| Mounty | 52 days | wrist brace big help | details |
| 1L | 52 days | Time. Left thumb still an issue though... | details |
| Hoddy | 55 days | details | |
| amosmj | 57 days | Kold dog leash with entire hand Forearm serms healed, some occassional residual discomfort but not enough to impact activities. | details |
| ericrox | 58 days | I'm not really noticing this much anymore.. gave up squash for a bit. Doing some wrist exercises hopefully thats the end of it. | details |

| dcady | 64 days | I just didn't care about it anymore. | details |
| Snow Lizard | 64 days | details | |
| duncanarcher | 64 days | Took many weeks to recover - think it was worse than I thought, even though it wasn't massively painful it dragged on. But once started climbing it never got worse after, so maybe just needed to get it moving. | details |
| Munter Hitch | 65 days | just tendon ripped, not all the way, repaired itself. | details |
| T - runner | 67 days | details | |
| ccsteve | 76 days | details | |
| khaleesi | 76 days | details | |
| vlin | 77 days | Probably tendonitis. Was not affected by 18-hour solo MTB race a month ago. Went away by itself. | details |
| simmo | 80 days | details | |
| MDeVoll | 83 days | Caused by over exerting and high repetition weightlifting. | details |
| Climber1 | 87 days | had to stop all lifts that put pressure on elbow (high lifts and pulls). Drank lots of water. Used IBU sparingly. | details |
| fluceluce | 87 days | details | |
| skuxxdeluxe | 89 days | Playing goalkeeper and not taking a match seriously enough. Should of worked more on recovery afterwards (exercises etc). | details |
| Luca D. | 91 days | dopo un mese recupero progressivo (forse con il caldo) adesso quasi assente | details |
| riley | 91 days | Seems to have gone away with rest from climbing. | details |
| mikebitton | 92 days | Turns out the pain was from having to push so hard on my shifter! I rewired the front and rear derailers and now they're as smooth as butter! No more pain! | details |
| FE | 95 days | Bike crash, broke thumb and injured wrist before I fell off bike!!Took 5-7 weeks to discover the thumb was broken and that a long standing injury to wrist had been damaged again. Thumb should have been splinted for 4-6 weeks, but wasn't, this may even have speeded up recovery and fortunately the unstable bone fragments did not move significantly. Rest, ROM, exercises with physio putty and cycling! - as advised by specialist to really work the thumb after 6 weeks. Getting less painful to write... | details |
| annanisi | 101 days | Ellbogenluxation #3: Ellenbogen ca 25 min nach Unfall eingerenkt (Böhler) Gips für eine Woche, Ortes für weitere 4 Wochen Untersuchungen: Röntgen, MRT Erster Laufversuch: 15 Tage nach Unfall Physio: 4 Wochen nach Unfall (2 mal Wöchentlich), ca 11 mal. | details |

| cramptonite | 108 days | After another 2 weeks of splinting still 5 degree off. About as good as it's going to get now. | details |
| austrianmike | 108 days | Rest (still a little bigger than usual) | details |
| axelhalvar | 109 days | Troligen bara en stukning gör inte ont längre. Ska tillbaka till sjukhuset om nån vecka. Då får vi se hur det står till. Nejnej Halvarsson det har påverkat dig mer än du trodde då. This changed it all. Kan springa i skogen med tummen, den är dock inte helt bra. Den ska klara smällar men ilar ibland och är inte helt rörlig ännu. | details |
| Siobhan | 109 days | Just time. Trying not to pull to hard on squats now. Super easy to get back to movement when I just reduced weight to almost pain-free and built back up slowly | details |
| mrevrgreen | 115 days | Injection made all the difference | details |
| chris_b | 115 days | details | |
| spilka | 116 days | details | |
| Boltboi | 124 days | details | |
| dcady | 129 days | After the problem with my knee and with my back this problem faded into the background and I pretty much forgot about it. For me, that's a cure. Still seems a little sore from time to time but I don't find myself compensating at all. | details |
| dcady | 132 days | Not really recovered but tired of the injury. Have adapted in many ways and maybe it is even getting better slowly. At any rate not really an issue any more. | details |
| RASPUTIN | 141 days | it will never be the same. | details |
| OL | 143 days | Rest, and backing off strength training a bit. Wearing a forearm band helped too when lifting | details |
| Heather O | 143 days | Gradual improvement since June. Still not perfect (need to be careful at the wall and training) but I just climbed E2 at Gogarth so it can't be too bad. | details |
| bun | 144 days | details | |
| simmo | 149 days | Still has scarring and stiffness, exacerbated by hand injury at Easter, but basically recovered. | details |
| SSavonne | 151 days | details | |

| Runodk | 164 days | details | |
| Andrew Feucht | 168 days | Have not climbed since the injury. There is occasional twinges that remind me of the injury. Not sure it will be back to normal ever. Will have to try climbing again some day... | details |
| spie0097 | 178 days | I still do not have the full range of motion I once had, but it no longer bothers me in day to day activities. I have continued to push it beyond its current range of motion with hopes that I will someday push the bone fragment out of the joint and recover my full range of motion. | details |
| simmo | 187 days | details | |
| annanisi | 196 days | Ellbogenluxation #2: Ellbogen musste vom Arzt )Klagenfurt) eingerenkt werden. (40min nach Unfall) Behandlung: 11 Tage in gespalteten Oberarmgips + 8 Tage in Kunststoffgips.

| simmo | 218 days | Seems to have settled, but still some swelling visible. | details |
| tornado_grl | 219 days | I am calling this done...still nagging but tolerable. I was told 6 - 8 weeks, we are at 6 weeks now. I can do limited plank pose pain free, so I guess we are on the mend. | details |
| cschneiderclimb | 236 days | Calling this one closed too. Wrist never bothers me on rides any longer but still can't really do pushups easily unless on closed fists to keep wrist from flexing. | details |
| bcvlj | 250 days | Wrist is much better now. better than before surgery and about 85-90% overall. | details |
| jgreen | 258 days | slower on the narley down bits - especially in a team where you will just have to wait for them at the bottom... | details |
| Vaala | 275 days | It's still not 100% but I suspect it's never going to be. | details |
| Tane | 282 days | Seems to be better now, still plays up a bit here and there | details |
| tinytoes | 284 days | details | |
| Milo | 324 days | details | |
| 1L | 337 days | Forgot to record when this stopped. I peg it around late August though. Just had to let it rest as much as possible. Comes back from time to time with renovation work. Lots of gripping heavy things tightly is a problem. | details |
| wiQ | 364 days | details | |
| Le Manchot | 365 days | is probably a rotator cuff tear.... went therapeutic route rather than surgery... took a full 11-12 months for full recovery... now doing weight vested pull ups at 140% of body weight and other arm-intensive strength work without any discomfort of side effects | details |
| Tane | 393 days | details | |
| michalmy | 403 days | X-ray on day 214. Rest and a some Voltaren gel from time to time. | details |

| TC | 588 days | still sore when ten pin bowling | details |
| Tooms | 739 days | Unguided cortisone at the insertion fixed it temporarily - but back it came and seemed to resolve mainly with (1) severe trigger pointing and massage; (2) time. | details |
| Georgia | 787 days | details | |
| PhilW | 1575 days | Turns out it's gout...I never thought of that possibility. At least It'll get better in a few more days I imagine. | details |
