head of radius

UMUT MUTLU Asked 14 years ago

Dear Jeff,

5 years ago while playing table tennis I fall down and broke broke my head of radius unfortunately underwent an operation and the head taken form my elbow...now 8 months ago I again started to play...here is my question; table tennis is part of my life and I really don't want to give up it again, for the time being everything going smoothly no pain, no disability etc...to secure the current condition what would you suggest:(

I am using elbow supporter (bauerfeind) right now...

please built my morale and dont say give table tennis up 

Awaiting your suggestion,

Kind regards,

UMUT

Hi Umut,

That sounds like a serious injury.  You need to get proper medical advice to make sure you are able to play without doing any other damage.  Your health needs to be the first thing. 

Just make sure of this first and then work on your strokes as much as you can. 

Good luck with it all.
