I read somewhere that you ice for 24 hours and then use heat thereafter, is
that right?
Yes that's right...try it Marshallee and take some rest.
But 24 hour is VERY much....I think one hour is enough or as long the ice
stays.......also good sometimes for backache ...first ice and later heat....so
the brains don' t know whats going on ...but it heals.
So different to explain in your language...I hope you understand.

Yes, I do take glucosamine and MSM for the joints, especially after taking
the CMO. Good stuff, all of them!
Ibu has never bothered me. My BP is fine.

It is feeling lots better this morning, now if the pops will stop...
Thanks!!!

Marshalee don't take ibrufen (not good for high blood pressure)...take
glucosamine for your knees and when it is swollen some ice will help?
I had the same...running... to get the train...my knees were swollen the
other day ...it takes time...really.

Subject: CS>Sore Knee
Hi! Anyone have any suggestions for a sore and swollen knee?
I think I sprained the darn thing when my Pug wanted to go out in the
middle of the night, and in the dark I stepped on a bit of dog chewy. That hurt
my wonky foot, so I stepped off it quickly, and came down funny.
This was a couple of weeks ago, and since then it pops and snaps, and it
hurts like holy hanna when it does!
I have been keeping the hot pad on it and taking Ibuprofen occasionally.
Seems to be the ligamenty thing that holds the kneecap on, as the pain
isn`t deep in the joint. Ideas??
