How to Ease the Pain of Overuse Injuries
Most of this you probably already know but a refresher never hurts. I can tell you that after my latest surgery I have developed foot issues that are becoming more painful. I will be seeing a podiatrist next month to see what fun things we can try to help make it better... Guessing the trial and error period won't cost me more than the price of a small car but then who can put a price on health, right?
In the meantime I subscribe and read helpful tips off websites like Webmd so thought I would share. Check it out yourself if you like, just click the link below. Here is a tidbit of what you will find on the "overuse pain" piece.
