    What Is Mommy Thumb? (Do You Have De Quervain's Tenosynovitis?)

    Mothers and fathers get this thumb injury from picking up their babies... Gamers from their controllers... Cell phone users from too much texting – Percussionists, golfers and anglers, too! You might think it's just a SIMPLE case of Tendonitis but it's actually a slightly more complicated tendon syndrome known as a 'Tenosynovitis.' It's often commonly referred to as Mommy Thumb, Mother's Wrist, Texter's Thumb, Gamer's Thumb and Smartphone Thumb. Learn all about De Quervain's Tenosynovitis in this podcast episode by Allen Willette from Tennis Elbow Classroom, including: The symptoms of this painful thumb condition. The causes and nature of De Quervain's. And what's really going on in the tendons and why it's important to understand it. We go deeper than your typical conventional medical view which tends to be overly focused on suppression symptoms rather than dealing with the underlying causes.

    When Should You Get An MRI For Tennis Elbow Or Golfer’s Elbow?

    When should you consider getting an MRI if you have a Golfer’s or Tennis Elbow injury? Allen Willette from Tennis Elbow Classroom answers this question in this podcast episode. Which also covers several key, related questions including: Do I need an MRI to diagnose my Tennis or Golfer's Elbow? When is the right time to get an MRI scan – If at all!? What will the MRI tell me – and what do the results actually mean? And are there any good alternatives? Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI for short) is considered the “gold standard” when it comes to imaging or “seeing” what’s wrong with soft tissues.If there are any significant defects in your tendons the MRI will reveal these in the greatest detail currently available in medicine. This is the best objective measure (although not the only measure) you can get of how severe the damage to your tendons may be.(Tendon damage being the essence of what Golfer’s and Tennis Elbow are.) But there are several things to take into consideration about if and when you really need to go to the significant trouble involved in getting an MRI.

    Treating & Beating Angler’s Or Fisherman’s Elbow – Inner Or Outer Elbow Pain & Injury From Fishing

    Why is it that casting, reeling and other fishing motions can sometimes end up causing a lot of inner or outer elbow pain – and sometimes even debilitating tendon injuries? In this episode Allen Willette, of Tennis Elbow Classroom, explains the underlying causes as well as how to treat these frustrating fishing-related elbow injuries. Including how to avoid the common mistakes that can impede your recovery and prolong your misery. "The pain sometimes begins with a whisper, like the gentle 'swish' of fly line through the misty, morning air…" "You start to notice a minor ache or little pinch at your elbow as you cast or reel, especially when you've hooked a feisty bass or rainbow…" "And your arm may feel heavy and tired at night after a long day on the water, perhaps with a dull, burning throb at your inner or outer elbow." "Is it anything to worry about? – Or just a minor nuisance? – Another sign you're getting older, perhaps?" "Or is this something more?"
