Are fucked again :fluffle:
Does anyone know any good rehab exercises for these puppies?
-
Which ones are these?
-
they're the ones that go x-wise across your knuckles. You know they're fucked when you get pain around the knuckles, often felt when crimping, or applying gentle sideways pressure.

...bitches. I suspect you all know some miracle cure that you're keeping from me, for fear I'll become awesome and steal your projects. :sniper:

I don't know fuck all about these, as you might guess cos i didn't even know what they were. I guess the usual ideas would be massage, icing, glucusamine(sp?) etc etc. Soz.

Erm not at all, simply do ten one armers on monos on the injured digit and you'll be right as rain in no time.

Oh how flippant my last comment now seems.
This afternoon (29.3.3) after enjoying a good session at Rubicon, I went up to Crag X with my mates Ed and Dave. I completed Jericho road and then went over to Sean's problem - which I have previously sent. For anyone whose not been on that problem you start footless at the lip of a roof, snatch up and left to a sloper - on hitting this hold, I felt something tear deep within my forearm. I stopped climbing immeadiately and don't seem to have any pain but it hurts to drag my middle two fingers.
What have I done? what should I do about it?
p/s photos being submitted as I speak.

Sorry to hear that Dobbin - sounds well painful :cry:

that's it mate, it's not that bad just sitting around, but it did make me feel sick at the time. i'm iceing it right now, hence typing is difficult cos one arm is covered in frozen peas!
has anyone suffered similar? any advice? can you perhaps recommend a sheffield based climbing physio?
