    sir,
    now ur POP is removed, u must concentrate on exercises only...

    e.g wrist moblity,sup & inf radioulnar jt mobility along with strengthenig exs under physio's observation.

    after 1 month if u find ur problem is not solved, u can start matrix rhythmus therapy, u ll get the result
    this therapy available in pune- 9860143257
