Hello guys,
Basically about 5 weeks ago I noticed pain on my inner forearm about 2inch down from my elbow whilst I was practising, naturally I decided it was just a bit of nothing but thought best to give it a rest for that day. I came back to practise the day after and the same pain occured so I stopped again, luckily I was on a holiday from music college so I went home for the remainder of the holiday to rest my arm and now 5 weeks later I'm back at college and the pain is still there. I've been to see a Doctor and she sort of had a quick glance and decided it was tendonitis (which I was afraid of) and booked me to have a cortosone injection.
So yeah, I'd love to get any feedback from what you guys think, because i'm not keen on the idea of an injection, as i'm not even sure if it is tendonitis?
Any advise would be mucho appreciated and sorry for the long ramble but yeah i'm getting pretty desperate and worried as no one will give me a straight answer about what I might have and what measures I can take to help it, or how long it will take etc
Thanks very much in advance
