Every time I think it is getting better and I'm more relaxed, something comes up regarding my mother's estate, family, home, etc. to just make it all worse again. I'm sure it will get better with rest, if I can just find the time to try and get it.
Wow! Some great ideas. The rice in a sock idea is one that I have used to warm my mother's finger up before testing her blood sugar and also on my cat's ears before testing the blood sugar. It works. I'll try it.
I've just been using cold therapy because the doctor recommended it 2 weeks ago. I'll try the moist heat and icy hot. It just dawned on me that my previous GP (who was more into homeopathic medicine and recommended vitamins more than any other doctor I've ever used) recommended using something people use on horses called ABSORBINE, Veterinary Liniment Gel, topical analgesic. It contains botanical extracts and speeds natural healing. It's a spearmint scent. I found it at a tractor supply store a few years ago. Just forgot about it.
Heck, I'll try every idea I've read! I think I've had it around 3 weeks now.
Everyone has been so helpful. Thank you.
