Does it help with upper arm pain due to tennis?

My husband has golf elbow and has had pain for awhile. Tired of him complaining and bought him the sleeve! It really works! He wears almost every day!

My husband has tendonitis (tennis elbow). I decided to give Tommy Copper a try after the other braces and compression bands failed. It works for him. Hope this helps.

Depends on what you mean by, 'upper arm pain'. I got my elbow sleeve because I blew out my elbow lifting extra sized bales of hay. This was physical damage and the sleeve did not do much for that, but did offer some bracing and support. I believe it would be most helpful for someone who just has sore muscles from a hard workout.

I'm not sure. I used it for a pulled muscle and for what is known as tennis elbow and it worked great for both. I would try it if I had arthritis.

It may help. It's slight pressure, not firm, so you may find sleeves with more compression to be of greater help. I have a similar forearm issue and alternate between this sleeve to wear on "good" days and a thicker, tighter one when my arm is hurting.

It really depends on your body, the arm setting pulse may or may not be sufficient for your Pain Needs. I suggest you actually "play" with the machine on various settings and strengths, as I did until I found the setting I was looking for or what was as close to what I needed..Hope This Helps.

It could since it places pressure on the area right in front of the elbow. If you're having combo pain, like elbow/ shoulder or elbow/ forearm/ wrist see a doctor. They can hook you up with the right wraps that will work together.Tennis elbow, the medical term is Lateral Epicondylitis occurs when inflammation of the tendons that join the forearm muscles on the outside of the elbow are overuse, or repeating the same motions again & again. It can also happen if the tendons are always locked in the same position for long periods of time. (This is all the info from my local pharmacist.) So if thats it, you got it and this may band help.

I would recommend giving these a try. The pain you are experiencing could be due to the fact that while doing regular pushups, your palm is flat on the floor and the angle of your wrist is extreme. With these, your wrist stays parallel with your arm, so there's no bending, thus, no stress on the wrist.

Depends if its on the throwing hand. If you are trying to protect the wrist this brace or the one with a flexible metal pad would be better. Arm sleeve doesn't do much mostly just for show

I don't know if it would help 100% since you feel it in your arms too, but this has helped a lot on my wrists. I do have pain in my arms when I type and I bought this: BandIT Therapeutic Forearm Band. Check the description out.

Bobby- I would not buy it for that. It may help indirectly, but no more than arm exercises would strengthen them normally. It isolates the bicep curl movement, and triceps pull down movement. -Doug

No, John, I found no improvement or noticeable difference on my arms. This is what I bought it for.....my upper arms. Save your money!

Yes, it is effective for arms too. You will need to adjust the tension down when working your arms.

Not that much. It kind of gives me a reminder to don't over do the motions that might worsen the muscle, which was my rotator cuff. Hope that helps. :D

If by the top of the hand, you mean palm, then yes, it does cover that part. You can manipulate it a little big, too. Also, Jessica, if you purchase it and it doesn't work for you, amazon has a fantastic return policy. I know that's a pain, but if it's not what you need, then don't keep it. I hope you get relief soon. If there is any thing else I can help you with, let me know. Hand pain is just a pain, isn't it?

My husband works out everday but can no longer lift heavy weights due to his elbow pain. I was wondering if this product would hurt his elbow as much as the free weights do. I think he ahs tennis elbow is what they call it (he is also an avid golfer). He has toned arms but wants them to be bigger. Is this the right product, or is this simply for tonig? Thanks for any suggestions.

Should help. I'd also do some of the exercises in "Treat Your Own Carpal Tunnel Syndrome" too to help avoid problems.

It might. I get pain radiating down my arm sometimes and I put it on a higher setting. It definitely helped me.

We got it for tennis related pain/injury that hurts side to side movement but it helps a lot for typing, piano, and any activity with large wrist movement. My daughter puts it on for everything because it helps so much. Her primary pain is in the ulnar outside of wrist and it seems to keep it in line better when she puts it on. It was well worth it to her. It is light, comfortable and she uses it. The others are too bulky and just don't seem to support the same movement.
