That sucks.
Two words
Neo Prene
Elbow, wrist and knee when I lift.
Small "runners knee" strap when I bike.
It's not providing support necessarily, just some alignment and keeps me aware of needed alignment through repetitions
**** seems like everyone here has some kind of problem.
Just routine suspension work and banging out some body panels

Repetitive use injury causes convective tissue to become slack. Often times it is not possible to recover, even though more recently things like stem cell therapy. Peptides and HGH can improve circumstances.
Increases in muscular build and strength provides a way to stabilize the joint... but is a slow and methodical process... sometimes unweighted work or lighter weights with increased reps.
Neoprene sleeves or braces can help put a joint in proper orientation for exercise or increase stability while working or working out.
Even if surgery becomes necessary, having strength built aids in recovery.
My experience has been that surgery very seldom increases capability... at best it can stabilize... but requires a dedicated rehabilitation program to avoid a cascading failure which I think you're experiencing as one repair passes stress to another point.
I'm not a medical professional. Just a high mileage guy who doesn't trust doctors and has had to figure stuff out.
Makes sense to me Chris. I'm not one for thinking the doctor is always right mostly when it comes to meds. Just my 2 cents.
Not me , I just cause them.
Sounds like what I need but Holy crap I would need a Neoprene body suit. You know like the skin divers
Woot
No idea what is in these but it can't be safe

I am finding that retirement means taking 3 days to do a 3 hour job.
And not giving a chit
HA! I try but no one pays attention to me. lol
Biggest challenges are usually low back, knees and elbows...
Yoga and Pilates are a really great starting point. Very low stress
Me neither Fred me neither
Nap time!
I went through some hard times when I first retired. Working and raising 8 kids by myself then all of a sudden I retired and life was at a standstill. That's one reason I work part time. Ho! and the extra money is nice.
So.... why does "skin divers" sound so dirty???
You say something?
Same with Muff Divers.
No, Muff's too tough.We dive at five
Gas hit $4 bucks ! Here we go.

Hey bartender!
The coach I work with emphasizes strength training with large dose of stretching and mobility. I wasn't in bad shape (just old and complacent) but the difference in just one year of dedicated work has blown me away. I still need to strengthen my lower back and legs a bit more, but amazing the difference.. BUILD MUSCLE. It fixes so much...
