Should I continue using ArmCare if I have elbow or shoulder pain?Updated 2 months ago
Do NOT perform a strength test if it is causing pain.
If you begin a Fresh Exam and experience pain during any part of the test, STOP immediately.
Complete the prep and a more thorough warm-up, and attempt the test again. Sometimes, stiffness or mild soreness can mimic pain, and a proper warm-up can help distinguish between the two.
Reattempt the Fresh Exam. If the Fresh Exam is still painful after a warm-up, take 48 hours of complete rest from both testing and throwing.
✔ If the Fresh Exam is pain-free and strength levels are normal, gradually resume throwing with a reduced workload and monitor closely for symptoms.
❌ If the test still causes pain after 48 hours: Stop throwing completely and seek medical evaluation.
