Elbow exercises, post PRP treatment

The wrong way and right way to use a theraband for rehabilitation, after a platelet rich plasma treatment for elbow tendonitis. Based on my interpretation of Dr. Mishra's instructions during my 16-month checkup. More info about my experience with PRP treatment for my right elbow can be found on my blog: http://gumption.typepad.com/blog/2007/07/mending-tendoni.html (updates after the initial treatment can be found in Trackbacks, and several Comments on the blog entries offer additional information).

Oops - just saw others' comments (and questions); sorry for the delay in replying.

I've chronicled my experiences with PRP treatment for my elbow on my blog, which I don't seem to be able to link to in a comment (google "elbow prp gumption") - where many others have shared their experiences via comments.

The treatment was successful (in my case), and I plan to update the blog thread with a new post offering a more complete characterization of that success sometime soon.

@5870cudworth how did it go with the PRP? i am about to go for this treatment, but still would appreciate some information from people that have had it.

How often do you do these exercises? Also are you doing any ice or heat therapy? I just finished my PRP treatments for tennis elbow.

I guess the ratio of right vs. wrong ways is 1/N for almost anything. I am certainly experiencing that now that I am teaching myself to play the piano. Plan: try out N wrong ways and stumble by chance on the 1 right way.
