Doctors have warned that capturing that perfect selfie can put avid selfietakers at
risk of developing “selfie elbow“, which is becoming a medical condition.Like tennis
elbow or golfer's elbow, an addiction to taking selfies can cause a pain in the
primary elbow and there has been a spurt in patients landing in the doctor's office
with the contion.
According to Jordan Metzl, a sports medicine physician at Hospital for Special
Surgery in the US, the problem is overuse. Like carpal tunnel and tendinitis, it is the
repetitive nature of the task that causes the aches. If you do something enough
times -typing, tex ting, or taking selfies -it is going to have consequences.
“Basically , the interface between technology and the human body sometimes
causes injuries of over-exuberance,“ Metzl said, adding, “We used to see it with
Blackberry phones -it was a real thing. People would get tendinitis in their thumb
because they were on their Blackberries all the time.“

Explaining the problem, Metzl said, “You put too much stress on the muscle
and it irritates the area where the muscle comes off the bone and you get
this inflammatory response.“ The condition can be treated by taking pain
relievers like Advil or Motrin for the inflammation and putting on some ice as
well as stretching the muscles.
The condition is an addition to the long list of concerns about the increase in
technology injuries in teens. Gaming, using Snapchat, selfie-taking, texting
and tweeting teens are more prone to overuse injuries than ever before.
In a recent case, awardwinning journalist Hoda Kotb went to a doctor
complaining of pain in her elbow. “I went to the orthopaedist and he said,
`are you playing tennis or ping-pong?' I told him I was taking selfies,“ Kotb
was quoted as saying.

“In recent years we've been seeing an increase in carpal tunnel
syndrome and tendinitis from overuse in teens, where 10 to 15 years
ago it was mostly scraped knees and falling off a bike,“ said Charles
Kim, a musculoskeletal rehab specialist at Rusk Rehabilitation at New
York University Langone Medical Centre.
Kim suggests a selfie stick for the dedicated documenters, which works
like an arm extender and takes the pressure off the elbow.
