Anyone had this problem and what did you do?
« on: October 23, 2017, 11:48:58 AM »
Anyone had an attack of arthritis in your hands (both) and were not able to bowl?  If so and after seeing a doctor, what did you do to get back to bowling?

I have a weak wrist due to an injury from when I was younger, I use a wrist brace for added support, and Chiropractor helps as well.

If it is in your fingers there is a product called steel fingers that you can use, basically what it does is give support underneath the fingers and it does work. You can purchase just for the fingers or and extension with fingers that helps with the wrist also.

600mg of ibuprofen an hour before bowling is usually all I need to be able to bowl.

Start a regimen of taking a teaspoon of honey,... cover that teaspoonful with turmeric powder, and then a couple sprinkles of black pepper. Eat it.

Consume it every day for a week and watch Mother Nature do her thing! It's that easy. No doctors, no drugs, no headaches!

I'm on my third day with this.  I'm also trying grape juice with turmeric.  So far no change but I plan to stick with it.  It's either this or possible surgery. 

Thanks for the reply.

I have had knee pain for a few years and it was very noticeable after bowling.  My knee would ache during and after bowling with sudden pain during my non-bowling days.  Since I started taking a Glucosamine w/MSM and a turmeric pill daily, I have not had that knee pain.  Sometimes a very brief dull ache.

Before trying anything, talk to your doctor.  Mine was okay with me trying it.
