Surprise surprise, I got injured. So I somehow have "tennis" elbow.
1. I do not play tennis
2. I do not lift weights
3. Whhhhyyyy
About a month and a half ago I noticed it hurt when I picked up my yeti. The heck?!?!
At first I thought I was imagining it but it got worse and worse. So I googled it and DAMMIT it's totally "tennis" elbow. I got an arm band thingy with the "knob" that pushes into your arm. It's hard to explain but if you google tennis elbow treatment, you'll see one.
It helped a lot, along with not using my arm...which is difficult because I AM RIGHT HANDED!!!
But I still didn't know what I did. After some reflection....I realized...I injured myself by OVER USING my arm while using my new Steam Cleaner. OMG I am so old....
Of all the stupid ways to get hurt. I am NOT telling people this!!!!!
Well It got better so about a week ago...I used it again. Ya know...the cleaner. OW!!!!!!!!!!
I am back in pain. Can't use my arm...much. And now I have a SLEEVE. Like one of those old people copper compression things.
Well with the sleeve its WAY more noticeable so people are like OMG what happened?!?
And I don't want to be like "I got a little too aggressive cleaning" but like what am I supposed to say.
People are trying to guess. So far
"OMG did you fall off your bike?!?!"
"Too much 3rd Base with the hubs?"
"Which dog is an @$$hole??"
"Sleep wrong?"
"How drunk were you.....?"
"Wait do you play tennis??"
"5lb weights were too much weren't they?"
Alas, nothing so interesting...so I've started coming up with ridiculous things.
"I joined a trapeze group."
"Too many one armed pull-ups"
"Arm wrestled a kangaroo"
"Water Ballet with Alligators"
"Aliens"
"This one time at band camp..."
You get the picture. I told my cousin the real reason and she's made fun of me for the last week.
