Any of you guys ever had a strained palm tendon?
« on: September 12, 2008, 12:16:02 PM »
and if so how long does it take to heal? felt a little more discomfort than normal after squatting from having the bar on my back and then woke up yesterday morning in excruciating pain, think i might have slept on it but it HURTS LIKE HELL to bring my thumb towars my other fingers to squeeze anything.

Caught a football badly couple of times.

At least for me they take anything from 2days to 3 weeks back to normal.

If swollen, ice it. Otherwise, keep it warm.

Not necessarily a "palm tendon' but rather a flexor tendon (s). Personally I would wait a few days to see if the pain subsides, if it doesn't go see the doc to see if you haven't ruptured a tendon. It's pretty common with athletes who try to grab on to another opponent, it's sometimes referred to as "jersey finger".

I've been nursing a tweaked wrist ever since the "low life incident" at my gym a month ago...

can't lift..

can't throw...

and wiping my ass tends to aggravate it everyday
