|
|
My 12 year has occasional elbow pain when riding. His elbow doen't otherwise hurt. It is usually his left elbow but once in a while his right elbow hurts. We changed bike recently and his elbows hurt on the new bike quit a bit.
any ideas? |

Centex:
If you still have the old bike, check the distance of handle bars from the midpoint of the seat, the rise the handlebars in relation to the seat and the angle of the handle bars. Try to replicate those positions on your 12 year olds new bike. It is most likely due to malpositioning of him for his anatomy.

My sis fell from bike she got elbow injury in x-ray got nothing broken, she used some pills and sprays for elbow but she couldn't get clear with the problem then one of my friend suggested supplement for joint pain. After using the supplement she got clear with the problem. |
