Happy New Year to all

Hello yes it’s gutting when you can’t do the things you really enjoy, I love making big birthday cakes and doing different designs on them but lately I can’t even hold an icing bag properly 😞 x

It’s not fair the distraction is good

Taking that away makes it so difficult to have some normality

I’m trusting there is a solution out there

If you find one first let me know lol 😊

Hi hun, yes you do get what you pay for, I ve used glove and splint supports supplied by Occ therapist at hospital-online tend to be cheap and cheerful,, on my hands I have found voltarol gel helps, lay hands in warm water for a few minutes, pat them dry to open pours and apply voltarol like hand cream, i get good relief.. are your elbow pains muscles or joint? I have supports for them too BUT its mostly tennis.golf elbow pain-they trap the nerve ends that cause the pain, I make my own now from half inch elastic sewn into a circle, not too tight but enough to be effective- place them below each elbow- for help look online at "medial epichondilitis" and you will see where to wear for results-hope it helps, sometimes popping pills isnt the answer.
