arm pain

I developed TMS pain in my upper back 10 years ago, 6 months after my sister killed herself. Five years ago, a year after my partner was diagnosed with kidney failure, I developed chronic fatigue and Long Covid symptoms (congestion, cough, heart palpitations, dizziness). He got a transplant and...

I have to tell this AMAZING thing that just happened to me! After more than a year, my claw-like, locked up hands just OPENED! I can freely wiggle my fingers. I can also open my hands flat for the first time in over a year. And I can open and close my hands, which I couldn’t do very well -or at...

With 'cubital tunnel syndrome';, when wearing an elbow splint to sleep; is the goal not to bend your elbow past a certain point or to keep it locked in a single place permanently? I ask because in order to keep the splints I have tried in place, I have to tighten them quite a bit which puts...

While dealing with 'cubital tunnel syndrome' i wear an elbow splint to sleep. I have tried a few different ones and have ran into a common issue. First, to keep them in place you have to tighten the top and bottom straps pretty well which may put a little pressure on the nerve up higher and...

Hello my fellow TMSers, it's been a while! I wanted to update you all and also get some advice from our TMS experts/support team. Warning: long We are nearly into 2023 and time keeps ticking away, with many changes that are comfortable and some not so comfortable. Here is my update and things...

Hi all. I was wondering if any of you had something similar to my situation. I was walking outside at a faster pace, and as I was moving my arms and I stating getting a muscle pain which was minor and progressively got worse as the days passed. It's clearly a muscle pain in the upper arm...

I had a disability of my arms and ankles for twelve years, diagnosed as a repetitive-stress injury. I also developed some fatigue and soreness in my back after a while. Unlike many other people, I did not have severe pain except early on, because I managed it with a system of time limits on arm...

Hi everyone, I am a young kid (19) recently dealing with very intense arm pain for the past 2 months. I just recently moved into a dorm at a college. There was no initial injury and it started in my right forearm. It hurt to push on things and open doors. Then it was significantly reduced...

Hi there, Just posting this because I really don't know what to do and am a bit worried. This time last week I was working out at the gym and had the feeling I'd overworked my arms and shoulders a bit (despite doing exercises in the correct form as shown by instructors and gradually increasing...

Hi guys! I read a similar post down below about nerve pain in arm, but preferred to write my own so as to get some insight into what you might think about my specific situation. Basically, I've had a pretty tough 2 years. I'm 27 years old and live in Argentina. My parents moved out of the...

Hi everyone, I would like to take stock of this last period. A few weeks ago the psychological approach really worked, I was free of significant pain for about four weeks. In the last episode, in particular, I managed to convince myself, relaxing, that until I could not have faith in the TMS...

If you are reading this, you probably have read countless stories of people in pain. My story isn't any different. Years of mysterious pain. What started in my back, became headaches, hip/leg pain, heartburn, stomach issues, anxiety, sleep problems, MRI's, bulging discs, 'structural imbalances'...

I've been super busy not thinking of my arms all the time, but I shouldve written this months ago. At it's worst, I had pain on the inside and outside of both elbows, tingling pinkies on both hands, a sore neck that would cramp up whenever I didn't lay down or stand, and on occasion bilateral...

Have or did any of you progress to the point where the hands shake like crazy after using the computer or whatever your trouble was? Recently, after using the computer or phone for a while, my hands, aside from getting more painful, also shake quite a bit, as if the muscles are dead exhausted...

Hi, everyone. I've had RSI (or TMS, rather) in my hands and arms for 3 years now, and I've had the same depressing struggles like everyone else, which I'm not going to get into, but it's been quite a ride. I recent weeks, I've committed more fully to the TMS theory, and I keep trying to feel the...

My name is Gilbert (27) and I am musician, cellist. For 3 years I have problems in both arms, especially in my right arm. This pain came when I started my master and it's focused in the forearm, near the elbow but not at the articulation itself. After any activity, not just with my cello (also...

Hey, Im suffering for more than 5 years from deep pain around the neck, chest and arms, and from anxiety. From the start everyone understood its psychosomatic, but hundrads of hours of treatment didnt help me with that. In the last month I found the term "tms". Please tell me you know about the...

Hi. I found this forum about 6 months ago, when I had pelvic pain. After being checked out, and scared by doctors for no reason, I decided to believe 100% it was psychological. The pain faded in 3 weeks. Now, I'm on a work deadline and having literally the worst nerve pain I've ever felt...

After working the program for a month now, when I came to today's Question to Ponder asking about new symptoms after working through other issues, I seems to me that there might be some of this happening. My problem has primarily been sciatica in my right leg since last year around this time...

Happy to report life is back to normal and I am 100% healed. The road to success was not an easy, but I want to encourage all my fellow TMSers to NOT GIVE UP. What I have learned from this journey has made me happier, wiser and more at peace with the challenges that come in life. In February...
