As for HGH, it is a well documented fact that it increases collagen synthesis along with healing of tendons and cartilage. I'm a bit too busy to scan all of pubmed right now (I'll get back to that later), but a quick google offered these hits:

Ok, let's get down to business! Here is the exciting update on my injury!
I got the results from my MR today. The doc was unable to make anything of it. It seemed next to normal. Upon inspection of my elbow that diagnose was soon discarded. My tendon still dislocates over the apex of my elbow (epicondyle?), but it has now become apparant that it is in fact my medial triceps tendon, and it's moving about on the inside of my arm (facing torso that is). My lateral triceps is ok.. the lateral bloat was caused by an inflammation in my bicep, which has been damaged along with the triceps. Yes yes.
My arm is hurting 24/7 nowadays, even though I'm not using my triceps. It's not like beeing burned alive or anything, it's just a mild sensation of discomfort. Using my triceps is ok if I do so within the range of motion from fully extended to 80% degrees between upper and lower arm, but if I do a full extention the tendon pops (regardless what weight I'm pushing) and my arm swells and hurts even worse for several days. I tested my lockout strength in bench press yesterday. It is down from 212.5kg to 160kg in 3 weeks, but it is just equally bad on both arms, so I guess that's just from lack of bench pressing the last weeks.

What can I do about this? The doc was boggled and didn't know what to do. No help there. From googling all I can find is scary surgery pics and suggestions that I should cut off my triceps and reattach it somewhere else and so on.


Poor me.
