Throwing overhand repeatedly puts a lot of stress on your elbow, which can lead to injury. Young athletes are particularly at risk, especially if they play sports year-round without learning proper throwing techniques and while their bones are still growing. Here’s how the elbow can be damaged: Types of Elbow Injuries from Throwing - Soft Tissue Injury: This includes damage to the muscles, tendons, and ligaments around the elbow. - Bone Injury: Repeated stress can lead to bone injuries, such as fractures or growth plate issues in young athletes. - Nerve Injury: The stress of throwing can also affect the nerves in the elbow, leading to numbness or tingling. Symptoms of Throwing Injuries - Pain in the elbow, especially on the inner side - Decreased ability to throw as hard or as far - Numbness or tingling in the elbow, arm, or hand Treatment The treatment depends on the specific injury and individual needs. Many throwing injuries can be treated without surgery through rest, physical therapy, and other non-invasive methods.

Don't make living with pain a habit! 🚫 Your joint injuries can be caused by a variety of scenarios: ➡️Obesity or overweight : Excess weight puts additional stress on your joints, especially your knees, hips, and lower back, leading to increased wear and tear and potential injuries. ➡️Previous joint injury such as a sprain :Previous injuries can weaken the joint and surrounding muscles, making it more susceptible to future injuries and chronic pain. ➡️Domestic falls: Slips, trips, and falls at home can cause joint injuries, particularly in older adults. Ensuring a safe home environment is crucial to prevent such incidents. ➡️Previous sports injuries : Athletes and active individuals are at higher risk for joint injuries due to the high-impact nature of many sports. Prior injuries can lead to long-term joint issues if not properly treated. Don't let pain hold you back. Seek expert care and regain your active life. 🌟 Contact Dr. Nikhil Gadre today for a consultation! 📞 7972900151 🌐 DrNikhilGadre.com Yashodhara Super Speciality Hospitals #JointHealth #PainRelief #OrthopedicCare #HealthyLiving #DrNikhilGadre

Reduce Falls in 2024! Ever find yourself in a wheelchair closet hoping to pick the right cushion for a patient at risk for a fall?  Here are 5 guiding questions to take the luck out of finding fall interventions:  #5 Is the pt trying to stand secondary to pain? If so, start on the mat to check for a postural abnormality. #4 Is your patient sacral sliding?  Resist treating the symptom, start on the mat to address the biomechanical etiology of sacral sitting. #3 Is the current cushion bottomed out?  Check to ensure there is at least 2" of immersion for pressure redistribution over ischeal tuberosities.  If there isn't, the patient will experience pain. #2 Is the patient trying to self-mobilize?  If so, check to see if the patient has the ability to self-mobilize without sacral sitting or sliding, which can cause a fall.  If they are not self-mobilizing, check to ensure that feet are fully loaded on the floor or on leg rests. #1 Is the hammock seat stretched out?  A hammocked seat can cause IR/ADD which is painful.   For more about great fall reduction interventions call us at (866) 860-5200 or email us at MyFriends@ThePostureWorks.com
