yup!! hang boarding, micro needling, some finger/arm exercises from PT.

i climbed seriously as a kid until like 22 ish. then didn't for 7 ish years. it's now close to 2 years back (sep 24). I think that's the main issue, my skill/strength is higher than my fingers. Though I'm still decently strong just have pain/days I can't do much and fingers are weak compared to what I used to have.

what about you?

I've been thinking of seeing if this local Dr. has any ideas, it sounds like you have to get the peptides injected near the injury which freaks me out. Don't mess with my fingers!

I did it and it worked wonders for my shoulder injury. Not giving you medical advice, but it's easy and not expensive so I would go for it if i were you.

And subcutaneous injections are so easy you dont even feel them, I pin daily every morning with my coffee and it takes me 20 seconds using a super-slim insulin needle.

A little off topic, but what is your goal with the micro needling? I thought that was a purely cosmetic procedure for things like acne scars, but now I'm wondering if I missed something.

It might not be the correct term, but my PT uses tiny needles and places them into my arm tendons (higher up). And then turns on electricity between the needles.

I know a lot of serious athletes swear by it and I definitely feel the effects.

It's hard to describe the sensation it doesn't hurt too much (though tapping into tight areas does hurt a bit). You can feel the change in how the tendon/whatever passes current when connected.

Like at first when really tight the finger doesn't really twitch but after a bit when it releases it goes wild.

Afterwards I'm weak for the afternoon and then feel looser after. I might equate it to an intenseness massage or Myofascial release treatment but highly specific for my inside the arm tendons.

I recommend it, but I would think only with an actual Doctorate PT.
