| M wears hockey and BMX bike vests to protect the front chest area. Also he found something for the spine for SB. Soft tissue injuries take a long time to heal - and more tricky too -than bone fractures. Last year my shoulder injury costs me basically a whole season. What helped me to recover was doing special needs yoga. Last week a skier from the club - a good intermediate fell and broker his shoulder bone and that would take 6 to 8 weeks to heal. I do agree that you have to give the body a complete rest. I bought a chinese herb "Tien Cheat" powder in Scarborough and make soup with it. It is supposed to help ciruclation. Also some herbal oil on the skin to improve circulation to get rid of "stale blood". You must be patient. |
