I had it too a few years back. Lasted for over a year. I tried rest, wraps, anti-inflammatory meds, chiropractic treatment, massage therapy, heat, cold... nothing worked. As a website programmer I still had to use my hand to control the mouse, which exasperated the issue. My now husband recommended a combination of MSM, Glucosamine, Chrondroitin... I discovered Triflex from GNC (I now take the Triflex Sport). I mentioned it to the chiropractor, who said... "yeah, that might make a difference." After about two-three weeks... the pain went away. It was unbelievable!!!!!!! I have been taking it ever since and the problem has not reoccurred.
