| 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 |
| Cruachan | 2 days | No idea of cause - possibly writing?? and pulled something. Painkillers, freeze gell and alcohol all seemed to work! | details |
| nknapp | 2 days | Got better quickly, definitely not serious. | details |

| vlin | 6 days | details | |

| Alex M | 7 days | details | |
| amosmj | 7 days | Seems healed, hadn't bled at all in days. Gonna keep it New Skinned and covered fir an additional week. Start changing blade migjt before so half asleep, clumsy me isn't doing it in the AM. | 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 | |
| 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 |
| Elise | 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 |
| Elise | 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 |
| salmon | 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 |
| sten | 15 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 |
| hughmac4 | 16 days | Slow steady use, 3 weeks. | details |
| Elise | 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 |
| Olly | 19 days | details | |
| orienteeringTim | 19 days | seems recovered | details |
| ifjones | 19 days | 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 |
| HubNukin' | 21 days | details | |

| JT | 22 days | details | |
| mmcleod | 22 days | details | |
| hkleaf | 23 days | Nothing special. Mostly just ice in the first week, then let time do the healing. | 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 |
| 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 |
| furlong47 | 47 days | details | |
| Mounty | 52 days | wrist brace big help | 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 |
| Slice | 58 days | details | |
| Tooms | 58 days | details | |
| MiloRunner | 61 days | details | |
| Broken Pinkies | 62 days | I have a bump on the last digit of my right pinky, but it is more or less heeled with no pain and full movement. | details |
| dcady | 64 days | I just didn't care about it anymore. | details |
| AAA | 65 days | just tendon ripped, not all the way, repaired itself. | details |
| T - runner | 67 days | details | |
| ccsteve | 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 |
| Broken Pinkies | 79 days | I've lost some movement in my left pinky (mainly straightening it out). It will probably require surgery in January to get full movement back. No pain, but some stiffness. | details |
| simmo | 80 days | details | |
| bomfunk | 87 days | stopped the hard climbing, did the back-of-forearm stretches, and strengthening with the metolius ball | 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 |
| Luca D. | 91 days | dopo un mese recupero progressivo (forse con il caldo) adesso quasi assente | 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 |
| Tooms | 96 days | Time. It might not be healed... it still hurts when I dry my face but otherwise seems fine!?! | details |
| Kip | 105 days | details | |
| fritzof | 112 days | Smärta från en nerv gör ont. | 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 |
| OL | 143 days | Rest, and backing off strength training a bit. Wearing a forearm band helped too when lifting | details |
| Runodk | 164 days | details | |
| Haymaker | 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 |
| tinytoes | 200 days | Unknown cause; continual physio/exercise aided recovery. | details |
| rambo | 218 days | 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 |
| tRicky | 305 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 |

| acjospe | 1754+ days | Rest would have been best. Stretching triceps a lot seemed to have helped abate teh pain. Not rollerskiing for two summers helped a bit too. Don't work at the computer with point of elbow on table. | details |
