@@baseballbatbros will when are those custom turn models coming?? Super exited, btw your my favorite channel right now with being in the off season your the perfect baseball channel.
Thanks for the video. I'm a teacher, and last day of the school year/teacher check out day, I came home early and decided to feed the livestock. Still wearing work attire, I slid on the 10* slope from hay-barn to pasture, gravel road, cartwheeled, landed on right shoulder and palm (I still don't understand the physics and physiology of that) It took me about 10 minutes to get up. (for reference I'm 55.5 years old).... that long to decide "maybe I didn't break a bone?".... I had a perfect outline of the half-golf=ball-sized bit of rough-edged gravel etched into my palm. Next day, bruising over *entire* palm, particularly the ulnar-wrist corner of the wrist up to the thumb-forefinger region of the palm. But it was nothing like that time I broke a leg. So all my big and small bruises fded away, the skin punctures healed. I had only one pain that persisted. My hubby says he thinks it's just that I'm old, so little hurts take forever to dissipate. But it's now 3.5 weeks. since I fell. The Hook of Hamate region of hte palm hurts like holy heck if pressed, I can't shift my car into park, open or close doors, steer or pick things up without significant pain. After research online I tried the two-finger pull test. The pain in the one bruised part of my palm quickly went to a 10 in triplicate. So I decided to (Finally) see a doctor about the fall. (don't judge, I'm a teacher in a country toat doesn't value educators, and (newsflash( teachers may have a lovely 10 week "vacation" in the summer, but what it really is, is a 10 week period where you don't qualify for unemployment, don't get a paycheck, and despite low salaries, seasonal income is way Way WAY *WAY* more unreasonable. Also the cost to see the doc is huge) .... that was Friday 7/5... I'm waiting for the ex-ray results which include "go here for a brace" or "go to see the ortho docs in town". Even though I asked them to get the carpal tunnel view on the ex-ray, they didn't bother wiht special imaging. So I predict that (A) it's broken, (B) they'll get me a brace, (C) in 12 weeks they'll refer me to an orthopedic specialist, and (D) within six months of the injury they'll finally admit that I broke my hand, need to remove the small bone, and close it up with six or eight weeks of therapy I can't afford just to get back most of my former mobility.
Lots of times it requires mri or CT scan but baseball or golfers need to push this with their Dr. Many times it's dismissed. I broke mine and played with it for a month or two before we finally got it squared away. Needed a cast. Grip strength sucks. It hurts to tilt down. You explained it well. I couldn't pick up a bat or a club with that hand. And yea you explained it well. 👍
l just got that surgery about 12 weeks ago now and my injury went undiagnosed all last summer and the beginning of this season, just got back from rehab and is the best thing that’s ever happened.
@@jtbatbro 8 weeks for the soreness to go away and additional 2.5 to weeks to get full mobility back in my wrist back from the stitches. Then back to hitting NUKES
I broke mine during my college season. I got a hit in my second at bat of the day and I went out to play defense in the bottom half of the inning, I couldn’t squeeze my glove I was in so much pain. I was unable to get surgery due to COVID shutting down everything when it happened (early March is when I broke it). It sucked for a while. For anyone having this issue and find out they did break their hamate, get surgery ASAP! Hope surgery and Rehab go well JT!
Just got diagnosed with a broken hamate bone after an MRI scan. Crazy but I feel nothing in the palm but only in the swing when I come through the swing in my wrist. Also when I throw my glove hand would sometimes hurt at the wrist. Such a weird injury but glad to know what it actually is now!!
Thanks for posting this! So helpful. I have a similar injury from golf and I kept trying to “play through the pain” and finally saw an orthopedic surgeon today and got a meaningful x-ray. Going for an MRI tomorrow and probably will need the same surgery as you.
man i’m in the same boat, took about 6 months to finally find it and i’m getting surgery in like a day and i’m pretty nervous and it’s comforting hearing it from somebody else
@@proxywz6360 I got the procedure in early/mid June, was out of the sling in July as well as having stitches removed, and I was swinging again by august or maybe September so a 4 month total from surgery day for me
A broken bone that only hurts when you swing a bat would be a tough one for a ball player. Especially when it would kill the whip on your swing. I also get the relief knowing what it is though. When they can’t diagnose it, you can’t correctly fix it, and you are just left wondering if you are being a wuss or something. Glad you have a recovery plan and I can’t wait to see you back swinging 100%.
I heard that the Axe bar could help this. Some batters wrap their pinkie on the knob and that causes that. See what your doc and trainer say about the Axe for ergonomics.
my son plays college baseball and broke his hamate bone 3 days before the season he's in a cast now may need surgery. he lost his sophomore season. west thing is he had a shortened season his freshman year because of covid and his senior year in hs was canceled due to covid. so injury came at worst possible time. This is three years in row. I hope he plays next year.
I broke mine once, had no clue but had to hold my pinky under the knob of the bat for almost a month. It's not a huge injury, but dude it definitely hurts and debilitating.
Hey JT. Best wishes on a smooth recovery. I loved your recruiting videos. I know how to embed the pocket radar. Can you describe how you did the 60 yd numbers? The app you used? Maybe a video on it. It would help out a lot of prospects. Thx and again, hope you are back at it soon
my wrist has been hurting like this too. pain on the outside part of your palm and it hurts when theres pressure on it. also my wrist will swell up alot when swinging a bat but it doesnt hurt that much when i swing
