After two years of suffering with golfers elbow and tricep tendinosis, I have finally found a Dr that seems willing to help. He specializes in arm/elbow and shoulder treatment. I met with him for the first time last week. My previous dr had me on all kinds of anti inflammatory medications that did nothing. I have done physical therapy and that of course was useless. I have had xrays and an mri. I have also tried 12 sessions of laser therapy.... total waste of $700.
Right off the bat this new dr gave me a cortisone injection in my forearm and they are going to try to get prp injections approved through my insurance for both my forearm and tricep. If they dont get approved, this clinic only charges $500 for prp injections which is awesome.
I have been out of the gym more than I have been in it for the past couple years, training on and off due to my tricep.
I am dying to start a cycle to give myself something positive to focus on. I’m hoping to have the injections done within the next month or two depending on when they can schedule me.
Obviously I will discuss this with my dr and see what his recommendations are, but from everything I have read, you can resume physical activity within a couple days post injection. What have you guys that have had prp injections done as far as training after the injection?
