  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ค. 2024
  • Screwdriver Pain Syndrome (Radial Tunnel Syndrome) is a painful condition that presents itself at the proximal forearm.
    The symptoms generally present a dull achy pain on top of, or on the side of, the forearm near the proximal radius.
    In other words, your forearm hurts closest to the elbow.
    Doug Holland, LMT shows a tip to professionals on how to massage this issue.

    I am a machinist. Woke up literally in tears this morning wondering how in the world I was going to make it to work, but knew I had to go. My arm was useless, but in so much pain. Made it to work, sat in the parking lot and found this video. Arm isn't 100%, but boy does it feel a lot better. Thank you, thank you so very very much!

    Ive had pain in that spot for over a year. Any bicep curl or hammer curl was impossible to do. Physio was unsure what it was, hand specialist was as unsure what it was, and surgeon said it was tennis elbow is making the radial nerve sore and i am going to start acupuncture for it. Im still confused about exactly what it is but this is the first video that described my pain in the same spot so will definitely try these techniques. Thanks a lot

    Thank you ! i have gone thru tons of videos...all of them are exercises about nerve gliding, but doesnt help much. you are actually touching and freeing the tendons..i think this is the only way of freeing the tensions. I'm a computer professional and for the past 18 years i have been using the keyboard..i guess thats the reason for my acute pain in forearm. You have correctly diagnosed it "Radial Tunnel Syndrome" only a specialized hand surgeon uses this word. My only worry is...this way of freeing the tension in tendons by putting pressure like in this video.. will it have any long term negative effects (like injured or torn tendons ) ?

    Finally found the issue with my elbow, this got so bad that my forearm went numb, complete weakness and palsy of the wrist. I stopped all arm exercises for 6 months to recover having been told it was tennis elbows but knowing none of those triggers points were my trigger points. This video described everyone of my trigger points and helped relieve and break up those muscle groups, along with some simple gliding exercises to release that radial nerve. I am back to doing bicep days with these messages and additional gliding exercises and see how it goes.

    I had been dealing with this problem for the last few months and just tried taking one of those reciprocating massagers and jammed it into where you jammed your thumb at 8:10 and the next day the nerve pain was gone and it’s so far stayed gone. The spot where I jammed the massager was sore, but healed, too, in a couple days. Felt like a miracle cure.

      Your experience certainly does sound like a "miracle cure" of some sort and certainly something I hope to have happen as well. Has the pain/discomfort returned at all in the few months since you commented here? Could you please provide a bit more detail as to just exactly what it is that you specifically did in order to achieve such excellent results? This syndrome and the severe pain it causes is SO frustrating as it truly limits essentially every activity. Thanks again

      @NoahThacker ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@boldventuresintl The reciprocating massager I’m referring to I guess is called a massage gun. They’re available on Amazon. I put the chisel shaped bit on the massager and set it on the highest power level and jammed it in where I said in my first comment. I also tried straightening my arm out and moving my wrist around while I had the massager in there. It hurt and was sore for a couple days, but the nerve pain that would shoot down my arm whenever I tried to use a drill or pick up a piece of firewood went away. I’ll occasionally feel a small tingle of the same nerve pain and I’ll just hit that spot again with the massager. Been great since. Back to using drills and chainsaws and all that with no issues.

    I've been doing some pull-ups and push-ups lately, and I'm a heavy guy, about 105kg. That put a lot of strain on my joins, no doubt, and I did start to feel some tenderness especially my right elbow, but nothing I couldn't tolerate. I started going easy on my exercises non the less.
    However, I had to move some stuff around the house and I made some pushing movement with my right arm, then heard and felt some sort of ripping sound. It's hard to locate where exactly - forearm/bicep area, kind of general elbow area. I felt tremendous pain, and was unable to rotate my forearm back and forth. That hurt a lot. Extending and contracting my arm wasn't really an issue.
    I felt a little better over a few days time, and I can now rotate my forearm both directions, but at the end points I start feeling a lot of pain. There is definitely no way I can exercise, even have trouble doing some every day stuff.
    There was never any swelling, nothing is broken (I suppose).
    Is it possible to estimate what could be going on there just based on my description?

    Rather than using your thumb, you can rest your arm on a folded towel a table and use a 1.25 litre soda bottle (the kind with legs) then use one of the legs to dig into the tendon.. that will give you a fair amount of pressure without having to exert yourself.. then if you want more pressure you can use a 2 litre bottle.. and for even more pressure you can rest your chin on the bottle. that allows you to apply pressure for a long time without wearing your thumbs out.

    Just some feedback for you: 1 I’ve had “tennis elbow” since January 2020 and I’m 23, in to sports. Very healthy and hurt my arm in jiu jitsu through a pulling motion, this is the second video out of hundreds that’s actually addressed the problem unlike most generic tennis elbow videos so great work.
    2: the video is very details but I’d argue you do not need half this detail, simple diagnosis and treatment would likely get you many more views and results.
    Keep it up

This is a video than has changed my depth of knowledge and understanding and consequently how I approach diagnosis and treatment - just of myself. If I am your intended audience, then please continue with details. You are a great teacher. Thank you !

    I'm holding off I'm going to the doctor until I have a reasonable understanding of what this condition is because I don't want to get misdiagnosed with tennis elbow.
    During workouts, hammer curls are pretty much impossible although other things are no problem. If I hold a book or my cell phone, something cramps in the elbow. It sounds like this might be the issue.

    **Updates below**
    *Original comment:*
    I have so many issues with my shoulders and forearms from lifting. I had a shoulder arthroscopy a year ago that honestly just made it worse. But my forearms are definitely the bigger culprit and a chronic issue that affects me in everything I do, all the time.
    I've been to so many doctors...orthos, neurologists...had a thousand different xrays, MRIs, CTs, EMGs, etc. Been to multiple physical therapy sessions. Nobody can seem to figure out what it is that's causing the pain. Like you mentioned, it comes from movements like using a screwdriver but also simple things, like holding a book or a phone in bed, or carrying bags of groceries.
    It's especially bad when trying to do any pulling exercises, so basically back day at the gym is hell. It gives me anxiety because I don't know if it will ever get better. I wonder if this (what's in the video) is wrong with me. I'm going to try your techniques here and see how it works!
    *Update:*
    Hello again all,
    After almost 6 years of pain, countless doctors, and an incalculable amount of appointments and therapy, I saw a hand specialist, another orthopedic doctor, and a third internal medicine doctor who all three worked with me in the same clinic and were able to diagnose me with exertional compartment syndrome in both forearms.
    They used a tool that measures the pressure in all three forearm compartments (volar, dorsal, and mobile wad). They numbed me up and stuck each compartment with a needle that has a pressure gauge and got a reading before, immediately after, and 5 minutes post irritation (had me doing exercise to intentionally make symptoms flare up). Ultimately from the findings, they have decided to do a fascial release on both the dorsal and mobile wad compartments, as that is where the worst of my symptoms are.
    Apparently it is a very rare spot to have the condition and is mostly seen in Olympic rowers but can be seen in people who lift and have larger than average forearms, so I was told. I have my first surgery this Tuesday on the right arm and my second surgery on the left two weeks after that. I'll check back here again once everything is healed up and let you all know how it's going. Until then, maybe this information can help you in discussing it as a possible symptom with your doctor. Best of luck all!
    *Second update:*
    Had the surgery on both arms and I am now pain-free when lifting and while doing everything else that was causing me problems. It's so relieving to finally be rid of the constant pain and weakness and be able to do my normal activities again. Again, for anyone having similar problems, definitely mention it to your doctor!

      I'm in the same boat as you, just finished a full year with this pain, I believe it may be something called a "repetitive strain injury" which is more of an umbrella term than an actual diagnosis (rsipain .com has helped me with some info). Still not sure what it is, hoping that I can fix things or get better before my next year of college starts. I hope you get better soon too!

      @@savagesanity Thanks for the update. By the grace of God I've made a complete recovery since I last responded. It turned out that I had something called "neuroplastic pain syndrome" or "TMS." Apparently, it is quite common and it's the source of a huge amount (I personally believe the majority) of chronic pain cases. Essentially, after a real injury occurs and eventually heals, your brain continues to produce pain signals in an effort to protect you from damage which no longer exists. I want to emphasize that the pain isn't imaginary, but there isn't actually any damage taking place in the tissues. This is often why medical imaging technology and doctors have a terrible time diagnosing these cases. Doctors are trained to believe that something is wrong if you tell them you're in pain and then search to find the source of that pain (which further reinforces the belief that something is terribly wrong within your body). This is a recently emerging field of research so many doctors do not consider that the pain is caused by the brain, even though all other diagnostic tests and images show no signs of poor health. I live in Colorado and was able to meet with a Doctor Bradley Fanestil who explained this stuff to me and proved that I wasn't actually damaging my tissues from performing certain activities. Once I knew this with certainty, I simply ignored the symptoms which I was experiencing and my brain eventually rewired itself accordingly. I went from completely bed ridden (the pain had spread throughout my body and various parts) to completely healthy in about 2 months. I realize you have already gotten a diagnosis, but I seriously think this could also be worth checking out as well. I will pray that your surgeries go well and that you make a complete recovery. Take care

      @@wolfgangknapek916 glad to hear it! I haven't heard of that condition. I waited for about 8 months for the doctors to get the tool they used to check my forearm compartments and they were very elevated after producing the symptoms. Hopefully the surgery goes well.

    I cant extend my arm due to pain in my bicep and forearm. If I wiggle my fingers, my upper forearm cramps up. Also, I noticed my arm is slightly swollen compared to my left arm. I had to get a sling because just holding my arm up to my stomach, I have sharp pain from my bicep and forearm. I think I over stretched it while sleeping. A couple of days ago I remember waking up in the middle of the night with my arm numb and used my left arm to move it towards my upper body. When I woke up in the morning it felt like I had pulled a muscle. As the day progressed the pain got worse to where I could not even extend it fully. I cant lower my arm without the help of my left arm, but I can easily move it towards my upper body and head. Its been 3 days, it hasnt got worse but still painful to lower or do too much with it. Any advice?

I don't understand why only those certain movements hurt so much and only in this biceps part. It's a struggle ...

    I had this problem many years ago when I was a mechanic. Turning screwdrivers all day really made it sore. I had the problem again when I took up sea kayaking as my right hand is my control hand and the constant rotating of the paddle blade angle made my forearm hurt. Things really got bad a few years ago when I volunteered to clean up the roadsides in Acadia National Park here in Maine. I used one of those picker uppers where you squeeze the handle to tighten the jaws enough to grasp the trash item. I did okay on the bigger stuff but when I started picking up the thousands of cigarette butts the pain got really bad. My trouble is that I have really bad RA and it has really deformed both my hands and fingers so I don't think I can use the finger techniques explained here. I do own a massage gun and am wondering if that could be substituted for the finger and thumb techniques you use?
