Bloody cramping fingers!!

I get a bit of tendon pain in my plucking hand arm and when I go to my chiropractor for my neck and she sorts my arm out too. I had a tendon strain in my left arm from picking up a cab at the wrong angle which didn't self heal - she sorted that out and it hasn't returned.

I've gone down the 'not hitting so hard and turning the amp up' route which helps. I now use a soft wooden pick on songs with fast runs (Panic in Detroit and Hang onto Yourself) which changes my arm and hand position so it doesn't affect or inflame the tendons in my arm.

I might try the banana thing too - I usually eat 1 a day anyway, so might double the dose!
