Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 hit two points I want to address. First, we seem to be really good at, getting overuse injuries, pushing, pushing just to get through the day. My husband says soccer great, Mia Hamm told an interviewer she needs to stretch out about 15 minutes before playing now. "I used to warm up just by tying my shoe laces!" This is important: WE NEED TO WARM UP and condition for any activity, and cool down.Flexibility and strength are our friends. This year I added balance to my friends list!Ice packs after over use are also our friends. I forget the notation, but biochemically, the ice changes the muscle fluids to a more soluble liquid, which means it goes away sooner. ICE first, then use the heat. Pop Ice sticks make great small muscle/area cold packs, and they also make tasty treats. Second, tools on steroids, whether we are talking clippers, knitting/crochet needles or screwdrivers, can all be bulked up to be better handled with rubberband balls and/or tape. I agree, to purchase, some are too pricey for me also, at least now.Finally , how much Folic Acid do people find they need to keep the mouth sores and guts at bay when taking methotrexate? Have a great day! God loves you.Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
