Peroneal Tendonitis, Ice Dipping Advice Please
by paul
(wales , england, uk)
now I have got the hang of the process and how it works
but a bit more detail please
I have a shallow bucket which I fill with plastic freezer bottles which cool down the water and keep it ice cold for 2 hours,at least
here I am ,watching the ball game in england
so...its place both feet over ankles in ice water....hold for 15 seconds
take em out....place on a towel
how often should I repeat this process whilst ball game is on ?...the water keeps ice cold believe me !..these freezer packs really do keep the temperature down
every ten minutes ?.....feet in..out...let em warm up then back in ten minutes later ?
20 or 30 dips over a ball game period ?
and thats ok for the day and then before and after this back to ice cup massage ?
thanks joshua

Joshua Answers:Yep, Paul, that sounds perfect.
If you can do 20-30 dips, that's rockin.
See, you -have- to watch a game! It's necessary for your rehabilitation! :)
Two Thoughts:1. Make sure that the container is deep enough that the cold gets up to at least mid calf.
2. I also would add in something...
I would, between dips, fold a leg up so you can get your hands on your lower leg, and just idly, randomly, poke/prod/rub the area around and directly on the muscle and tendon.
This doesn't have to be high tech, just gently pester the area.

Do you have a pulled back muscle? Sure it hurts, but is a pulled muscle in a back actually an injury? It just all depends.

I agree with all that you have listed about Ciprofloxacin. I have taken it for 3 days 250 mg I believe. Took 2 a day for 3 days. I began to experience

Looks like I'm the first story on here. Cool! 4 years ago I started having pain in my right Achilles Tendon, halfway between the calf and the heel.
