I'm sorry you're in so much pain, I cut hair practically on a hardwood floor all day so I know where you are coming from But laying all that aside you really do need to go to the doctor most of the time w/mine it's a nasty kidney infection (to many cokes & coffee
but if it's work related I use theragesic cream & those heat-activated pads from wal/mart or a good ol' heating pad! I hope you get to feeling better soon!!
