I don't have any infrared lights to use as a therapy system for my knee, however I have alternated heat and ice packs...I do move around, about every hour, a little bit, to keep me from getting stiff and to keep mobile...but it's hard to do because of the pain in my knee...a meniscus tear can cause a lot of damage and pain. It won't heal on it's own...it will only get worse, which it has since I damaged it while walking last year... I did try a Salonpas patch on my knee, but that didn't help one iota.. and epsom salts help my foot, but not anything else...
Hi Rick! I am not using the cane exclusively, just mainly "just in case" LOL! I'm not walking much, because the walking causes my knee to hurt so much worse and it keeps me awake at night...last night was bad...
Good evening Rick - Aww, I'm disappointed and a little sad you changed to Christmas already.. Couldn't you hold out for just a little longer? I'm changing mine on Thanksgiving night.. I don't like to rush through these wonderful times of the year.. They are so short lived.. Let's not rush; everything will be over quick enough.. From October on are my favorite months and they fly by.. Please slow down.. The end of year months are the best!
Still sweeping acorns off the front porch and walkway. They're piled up like leaves this time around. I got the front porch cleaned off earlier this morning. Now it's time to trim the lantana bush by front porch back. The frost got it a few days ago. But it will come back bigger next spring. I've had it so long, don't even what year it was planted. At least 2010, or before. Hope your week has gotten off to a good start. Our temps warm up beginning tomorrow..76. Back to the 60's by weekend. Enjoy your day.
