Subject: RE: Right hand pinkie gets numb while swimmingHere is the update on my hand condition. Just got back from the physio therapist. Ulnar nerve impingement - physio for 2 weeks - ice, stretch, ice, stretch, ice, stretch repeat....................... LOL. Going to mix in a bit of tens along the way as well. Guess is that it is caused by repetitive movements (elbow bend and catch during swim). He did say it was good that I did not ignore it because if I had we could have been looking at loss of strength and some long term side effects. Anyway, just thought I would share this info all of you just in case you ever experience it. KC |
