John, I can agree with you up to the extent of my nearly 40 years of age

For some time after the initial injury, some hours, yes, DO apply ice. That
keeps the initial swelling down and relives pain.
After say 12 hours, DO apply heat, to encourage blood flow and speed repair
of the area.

I have to say though that all this talk about stiffness in the morning
and putting ice on it makes me think you more than ever need to buy

Glad to hear your hand is OK. Strengthening exercises should get it back to

Sorry to hear about the Achilles, but keep exercising it or it'll never get

I had that after I trained for a 5K a few years ago. It's awful. I'm
hoping it goes away someday.;-o
Just kidding, although like any tendon problem it takes awhile. In my
case, about 9 months before I didn't notice it anymore. I could still
