I have developed a slightly inflammed, but extremely painful elbow. My wife, a physio, tells me it is a form of tennis elbow, generated by a combination of supporting the sax through my right thumb, whilst operating the keys with my right fingers. I don't question her knowledge, but I am curious to know if anybody else has experienced something similar, and if so, what did you do about it?
My wife suggests not playing for a while, and she is not dropping hints about my (lack of) talent. I don't have to practice, but I do enjoy it and if possible I'd like to carry on. She also suggested buying a powerball and strengthening my wrists.
Any thoughts?
