i've got a booey on my elbow...

[sfc crash]

here it is 2 weeks before wardys, i'm fat, out'a shape and have some sort of elbow malfunction! i went out to the track last monday to practice jumping, which, btw, i need badly. i had been running a stair stepped hill, about 5 jumps in all, about 3' to highest 4'. braap braap braap...up'n down. no prob, tues i've got numbness in my right index and middle finger, not constant, but if doing a repetitive motion thingy, or holding onto something for a while. did some riding around the ravine thurs night and the whole hand was going a lil' numb..no sweat. figured it would pass. sun i'm burning brush piles, got one going in the bottoms, so i go up to the brush pile on the side of the ravine and start tossing down timber. stuff about 6'to8' in length, 4" to 8" in dia. no sweat, well lots of sweat, but no biggie. go back to some more coors light. woke up this morning at about 0300, who-ie, dang, couldn't move the arm and it was in constant pain. finaly got up at about 0600 and gave myself about 1/2 cc of dmso inj,local, then went back to bed. got up at 0700 and aplied a dmso/ibuprofin transdermal and have the elbow in an ace bandage wrap now. i'm pretty confident in the dmso wonder drug, figure i'll be cool in about 3 days. there, just so ya know. ;)

Glad you are going to be feeling better but thekid won't.
He went down Sat morning after overjumping a triple and getting sideways into the next jump face. As he got thrown off, the next bike (who had done the triple as a single then double out) tboned him and drove him into the ground. Broken Clavicle and 2 ribs. He won't be riding at Wardy's but says he wants to go to just hang out.
