it isnt a constant pain. it only happens after i throw. it will go away in a day but it happens everytime i throwmaybe your mechanics are wrong. work with your coach and find a way to throw without your elbow hurtingmine use to do that when I was about your age. It probably has to do with your arm motion that is putting too much stress on your elbow. It might be some curve or slider or just throwing fastballs too hard and double clutching your elbow. Or, it could be bad mechanics with one particular pitch. What you need to do is video tape yourself throwing from a side angle. Look at it in slow motion and compare it to a major leaguer from the same angle . Or put it on youtube and email me the link and i'll take a look and see if I can help. matt_n_littlerock@yahoo.com
p.s. just don't compare to mark prior. that is a good example of someone thats always had a poor arm motion that killed his elbowicing helps, and make sure your throwing with your elbow up because i had the same thing and started throwing right again and had no problemsyou should see a phiso terapist. This is not good. This is because you have over worked you arm(this happens when you don't throw complete overhand). you probably pulled or tore something in your arm go to the doctorrun a few miles every time after you throw, it gets rid of the lactic acid that builds up in your arm that causes pain and improves your stamina at the same time. after you run, ice your elbow and shoulder, then when after you ice apply a heating pad to your elbow. it its still hurting everytime you throw you should see a doctor b/c you might need surgery or physical therapy, but its best to find out sooner rather than laterwell have you been throwing curveballs have you thrown in a while and you may be over throwing#If you have any other info about this subject , Please add it free.# |
