    Golfers Elbow very bad timing.

    Currently have tennis elbow, had it since August and haven't played since. Having physio and stretching and I will be going out on the practice course today to play three holes to see what happens. Having a physical job means resting wasn't an option so to hopefully speed up the healing process...

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    Bad news I am afraid, it is still a problem, I haven't played for three months, and I am waiting for the doctor to sort out physio. I use a support at work, which has helped a lot but as I do a lot of lifting and holding of weight in awkward positions its going to be a slow process. i am hoping...

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    Well first day at work with a tennis elbow support and the pain has been much better, now to put ice on it and give it a rest. Thanks very much for the advice, I need to find some exercises to do, I hope everyone suffering gets better soon

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    Paddy, I have had it for probably 6 weeks, where its got progressively worse, I finally gave in and went to the doctor, (had to book 2 weeks in advance), the last time I played was without a support or pain relief and approximately 10 times it felt bad and made me hook the ball viciously. I...

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    Foxholer, I think in truth its more related to my work, and the golf has just aggravated it even more. I have also been told about the injections by a friend, and like you say, that really would be a last resort (if I couldnt work) but hopefully I can come through this reasonably quickly

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    Pain is on the outside of the elbow, I am in a physical job so no chance of resting it but I am hoping that with supports and exercises I can get it sorted sooner rather than later. I have been told that it takes as long as it takes, but I dont want to give up without a fight. Hope you get...

    Tennis elbow, hints, tips and fixes for getting over this injury

    I am gutted to have found out from the doctor that I have tennis elbow, checking on the net there seems to be loads of dodgy advice regarding exercises and treatments, I have bought a support, and would appreciate any advice of things that helped your recovery. I am also thinking of cancelling...

    Driving in France, red light flashing

    So far I have been told I could have been speeding, which I wasn't! There may have been a fire station or railway crossing, which there wasn't! I have even contacted french people and they don't know lol. So what hope do you have.

    Driving in France, red light flashing

    I have just returned from France and I am not sure if I made a mistake or not, your advice would be appreciated. In town, on a long sweeping S bend is a set of traffic lights, before the bend starts there is a single flashing amber light ( at each end of the S) the traffic lights are right in...

    Help - had a tyre blow and the airbags deployed

    I agree, the airbags should not have deployed in the situation you describe. The fact only the side bags activated points to one of the side sensors activating. Given the tyre was flat a possible reason was the tyre was the result of something hitting the car near the sill or floor, and then...

    Wentworth this weekend

    I had a fantastic time at Wentworth on Saturday and Sunday, the whole experience was superb. The thing that amazed me, which I dont think you can appreciate watching television, is the distances being hit, how high the ball flight is, and how consistently accurate the professionals are. They...

    Mircales do happen.......

    Dont count your chickens, all Norwich need to do is score 17 goals past Arsenal, and provided Sunderland dont score any more, and loose their last game, Norwich stay up. OK, your safe, 17 goals would almost double our entire seasons number of goals. Well done, playing exciting football and...
