    WOW. Sorry to hear that Robert. I fell twice this winter but both time, thanks to my ju-jitsu training, I landed squarely on my wallet in my left rear pocket.

    As to that muscle.......good luck with that. Did the doc tell you to keep icing it? I had always thought you ice things for a day or two (to reduce swelling) and then add heat/warmth to promote blood flow. Keep us posted on your progress.

    ^ This.

    You might also want to try a different NSAID pain reliever, like ibuprofen, and see if it works better for you than aspirin.

    And sorry to hear you've been having such a rough time of late!

    I have tried Ibuprofen and it hasn't helped, plus it gives me a stomach ache.

    Yes, and thanks. Treating these problems is up for interpretation however. See https://www.painscience.com/articles...n-injuries.php
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.
