Thanks for the video. Ive had a tendor ulnar nerve at the elbow fow a week. Feels like when you "bang the funny bone". The area is mildly inflamed. No numbness of tingling. Ive not been bending my arm all week or at night but the issue is still there. Do you have andy advice please? Is the nerve swollen and how do i reduce swelling? The cause I think was weightlifting (skull crushers) and leaning on the elbow in the morning using my phone in bed. Thanks in advance. Im in UK so cant visit :(

Can i compète in brazilian jiu jitsu if i have a small discomfort in my elbow when i bend it and numbnes/tingling in my 4th and 5th finger?

[@Performance-Place-chiropractor]

You’d need an exam to see what activity is ok to do at this point. We can do that for you if you want some guidance

​@@Performance-Place-chiropractor Thanks for the reply. I live in Europe actually. I started to have this problem about 2-3 weeks ago. Previously (a week before it started) I overworked my forearm muscles from gripping a lot. What type of diagnosiss should I go for? My doctor tells me that only emg is the answer. Also I noticed when I do pull ups I dont feel almost any type of ulnar discomfort, and same when I train bjj. What is your recommendation if I only feel discomfort when I bend my elbows? Btw im only 20 years old.

@@talhaali1977 I went to an orthopedic doctor and he said that i should change my habits. Also i went to the competition and I didn't have any problems with ulnar. Try to limit the amount of time you are bending your elbows and do nerve gliding exercises. Check more type of doctors and see what they are recommending. I was extremly worried the first few weeks but now i dont pay that much attention which i dont know if its a good idea.Dont have your elbows pressed on hard surfaces and dont bend your elbows too much.

The magic of not stretch the nerve is real :)

I have numbness/tingling in my 4th and 5th digits but no pain. Is this still ulnar nerve entrapment? Would these help regain sensation?

[@Performance-Place-chiropractor]

We would have to investigate to find out. We show these as an example but the ones that we have people do are specific based on our exam so they limit flare ups by doing the wrong things

For sliding at the shoulder, this video does the head tilt in the opposite direction of the video in your book. Which is correct? Seems like this one is backwards since tilting away from the "flossing side" tensions the nerve from the neck side, and bending the elbow past 90 deg tensions from the arm side...

[@Performance-Place-chiropractor]

Hi Jim. Would you be able to reach out to us via email so we can figure out if the book has any discrepancies. [e-mail] nerve flossing is a pretty complicated scenario because of the exercise looking so different based upon each location. Reach out to us and we can see if we can clarify. Thank you.
