I am currently in a boot, non weight bearing. After six weeks I go back in for X-ray.(currently 1 week, 5 days) Other gymnasts have told me surgery is most likely. That the cartilage won't heal. What do you guys think? Any opinions based off experience?
Hello!
So my DD and I were working out and she was doing push ups and I noticed her elbow cracks on every push up on one elbow.
I asked her what was up, and she said that it only happens when shes doing push ups and it can be bothersome. I asked if it hurts and she said sometimes and then she...

She is having surgery next week to have some loose cartilage removed and...
Hi! My 12 year old had surgery for OCD (Osteochondritis Dissecans) in her elbow a month ago. They removed the loose fragments, debridement, and the bone was allowed to bleed out (no microfracturing necessary bc the lesion was deep enough to bleed). The plan is for my daughter to go back to gym...

So after a very long summer and talking to 4 different doctors, DD has been diagnosed with pretty bad elbow OCD. Getting surgery in several weeks for it, but best case scenario she will only miss this season. Even worse, the prognosis is bad enough that the doctor has told us she may never be...
I'm looking for success stories of returning to gymnastics after OCD in the elbow especially without surgery. There isn't a lot on the Internet about it.
My daughter is a L7 and she just turned 11. She was diagnosed with OCD in March, we are now on month 4 of no activity on that arm. She...
I know of 5 girls at two different gyms with OCD. 4 of them were diagnosed during or after their level 8 season. One of them just after her first year as a level 10. They all have faced long recoveries.
Can someone tell me, is this purely genetic, bad form, or overuse ? What is the best way to...
Hello. My daughter has OCD on her both elbows. We are desperate for information and hope.
She is 10 year old, competed two years of L7 and had been preparing for L8 this coming season. Early April, she told me that her right elbow hurts sometimes. Took her to x-ray on April 20th and did MRI on...
Well it's been almost 6 months from DD's microfracture surgery and she's doing great! Started slowing training (back using arms) about a month and half ago. She's gotten most of her upper body strength back. Her skills are coming back faster than I thought they would. She's a freshman this...
My daughter went for her follow up MRI for the small OCD lesion on the trochlea side of her elbow and unfortunately the results were not what we (or the dr) expected. The OCD lesion/defect did not improve at all and in fact may have gotten slightly larger.
Sh's been on "rest" off and on...
DD (age 8) woke up a week ago with pain in her elbow. Some diminished range of motion (more in the flexion but some slight decrease in extension). No injury that she could come up with. X ray was done and there was a "difference" between the right and left arm- right showed what was...
I wanted to give an update on DD's elbow. She had her MRI on Wednesday and I talked to the Dr yesterday. At first all they saw was bruising near her trochlea which is on the other side of the capitellum. Then I pushed the Dr to look again and they saw a small potential lesion (again not near...
Hi! My 12 year old is about 2 weeks post-op debridement for capitellum ocd. She had full mobility before surgery and currently is only 2 degrees off. Her surgeon believes she will regain full mobility again.
My question is has anyone on here dealt with this injury and surgery and been able...
