Rugby Elbow Injury Supports

Elbow Supports

Rugby is a contact sport that can cause serious injuries. Although rugby players can injure many parts of their body whilst playing, elbow injuries are a common injury within the sport. Common elbow injuries rugby players face are distal bicep rupture, posterior impingement, ulnar nerve entrapment, little league elbow, and elbow fractures. The biceps brachii tendon tears from its attachment site causing distal bicep rupture, resulting from an overload and other injuries. Posterior impingement is an injury of soft tissues or cartilage due to an overuse and repetitive extension of the elbows.

Ulnar nerve entrapment occurs due to the repetitive compression and traumatic conditions. Overuse of elbow and forearm muscles may result in little league elbow. Elbow fractures and dislocation occur because of collisions and traumatic conditions. Common symptoms of elbow injuries from rugby are severe pain, swelling, numbness, stiffness, and weakness in muscles and joints. If left untreated, pain or mild symptoms may worsen and take longer to heal. Stop playing when you feel symptoms and consult your GP immediately. They will perform a physical checkup or imaging tests to determine the severity and extent of the pain.

You can treat the initial symptoms with home remedies like the RICE method (rest, ice massage, compressions, and elevation). Your GP may suggest physical therapy, helping improve strength and range of motion. Mild symptoms may take several weeks to heal. Surgery helps to repair dislocated and fractured joints and may take several months to get back to normal.

Whether you are a professional Rugby player or play it occasionally, you need to adopt some preventive measures, helping reduce the risk of injuries on the rugby field. Practice a structured and balanced training regime involving endurance, flexibility, and strength.

Wear quality elbow supports when needed, and never forget to warm up your body before playing rugby. Elbow supports help your joints stay protected, preventing pressure and stress during overhead activities.

There are different types of elbow supports and each works accordingly. Ask your professional trainer or healthcare provider which elbow support is best tailored for your needs. At 360 relief, you can find a variety of elbow supports to help with an elbow injury from rugby.
