Pop Goes the Elbow Part 2

In POP Goes the Elbow, I told you how I injured my elbow. This is the update. It's been a week since the elbow popped and searing pain shot up and down my arm, and I'm a LOT better already. I have to say that this is the fastest I've ever recovered from a serious injury and I want to explore possible reasons for the rapid recovery.

First, if you recall, I kept on working even after the pop, and that was stupid. But that night, I did to the RICE thing (Rest – Ice – Compression – Elevation).

Second, I have been using my joint complex supplements pretty regularly. I've written about that here.

Third, and I believe most importantly, I visited the family chiropractor, who happens to specialize in sports medicine and trains quite a few local athletes as well as some pros. He is awesome. He's done a LOT of stuff with my elbow, and every day I feel much better than the day before.

Turns out that I had multiple injured soft tissue. Each is healing on its own, with specific therapies for each. I think by this time next week, I'll be working out my upper arms again.

This is awesome news!

My chiropractor's name is Dr LeCara and he's based in Pleasanton and San Ramon. I highly recommend him.
