Tear in my UCL in right elbow.
Posted: 02-21-08 11:42am

I used to be a pitcher back in highschool. Me sophmore year, my elbow started hurting, so I started taking pain pills every game to kill the pain (STUPID). Well know I am 20 years old, and my elbow hurts constantly, sometimes its hard to sleep at knight, or do simple tasks. I saw a doctor, and he told me that a normal person would not have tommy john surgery because of the recover time. So he gave me a shot of steroid, and a deadiner to kill the pain. Four months later and my elbow is back to throbing. Does anyone know of a doctor for this, or anything I can do to ease the constant pain?
