First post- just looking for experiences relating to this.
I've got triceps tendinitis according to my GP. I'm looking to get an appointment with a private physio, but in the meantime, I thought I would see how common the injury is on UKB. I understand what the triceps do- straighten the arm- and It's most likely an overuse injury from climbing (pressing out, locking off) but I also wonder if swimming may also contribute? I've increased the volume of swimming I do because I've had patellofemoral pain issues (results from mri and consultation next week) preventing me from running.
It's a nice day outside, and I'm sat here with ice tucked under my arm and Ibuprofen for lunch.
How long to rest? How do I know it's safe to climb? What moves should I avoid and are there technique related issues or weaknesses I should watch out for?
