So, about three months ago, I started feeling this nagging pain in my elbow whenever I moved a certain way—and man, it just kept getting worse. I finally went down to the ER at Mayo Clinic to get some imaging done, and they told me it’s basically just tendonitis, you know, that whole "tennis elbow" thing. They put me through ten sessions of ultrasound and electrical stimulation therapy, but honestly? 🤷 Absolutely nothing. Zilch. Zero. Then, this super well-known sports doctor I know tells me to just stick to icing the spot a few times a day—basically telling me to stay far away from all that electrical stuff because apparently, heat just flares up the inflammation even more... but even the ice isn't doing squat 🤷
Does anyone actually have a fix for this? Because I am seriously losing my mind here 😠
I can't train, I can't work, I can't do anything with my arm—and I've been an athlete since I was a little kid, so this is brutal

thanks
