Boxing Elbow Injury Supports
No matter how much training and preparation you have done, there is still a chance of injury in boxing. A boxer needs to move in several directions quickly and attack his opponent continuously. These actions make boxers susceptible to injury, especially in their elbows. Hyperextended elbow, anterior elbow impingement, posterior elbow impingement, and elbow fractures are common elbow injuries in boxers. Hyperextended elbow occurs when the elbow joint bends backwards more than its normal strength.

If you feel pain after an injury, you should not ignore it, no matter how slight. Visit your GP, who can give you a diagnosis by performing a physical checkup or refer you for radiological tests to determine the damage. Home remedies or the RICE method (rest, ice massage, compressions, and elevating the injured areas) is the best cure to treat the symptoms initially. Your GP may also suggest over-the-counter and anti-inflammatory medicines for pain relief.
Wearing elbow braces and sleeves help protect your elbow during boxing. They also help keep the joints aligned or compressed to speed up the recovery process following an elbow injury. Bracing applies gentle pressure to the muscles below the elbow. Its primary function is to reduce pain and increase your ability to freely move your elbow and arm. To get maximum results, make sure that you wear quality braces and wear them only when you need them.
Besides this, some preventive measures also keep you safe during boxing. Always warm-up before entering the boxing ring and wear proper gear to get an injury-free boxing experience. Take the time to learn the correct punching techniques to avoid injuries.
Ask your GP about the best elbow braces for you and follow his instructions when wearing them. 360 relief provides you with the best elbow supports to help with a boxing elbow injury.
Missing the target or opponent can cause hyperextension during boxing, which results in elbow injures. Hyperextension and other problems such as overlocking may result in the elbow’s posterior impingement, which may require surgery to recover.
An elbow brace helps immobilize or limit the range of motion during boxing. When you miss a target, braces may help avoid hyperextension to avoid elbow injuries, such as boxers’ elbow.
A mild boxers’ elbow or hyperextended elbow can heal through some conservative measures inducing proper rest, applying ice therapy, wearing elbow braces, and taking pain relief medications. However, severe boxers’ elbow may require surgery.
Usually, it takes 3 to 4 weeks to heal the elbow injury, such as boxers’ elbow. However, if you suspect that you have developed a hyperextended elbow, consult your GP immediately. Delaying the treatment may worsen the case.
Consider the following things during boxing to avoid elbow injuries:
- Warm-up your body before playing
- Use proper form and technique
- Avoid missing the target while attacking
- Avoid falling during a match
