My PT is great and very willing to listen to what I think about the ice. As I think about it, maybe the ice HAS had a negative effect, but temporarily felt good. As I have read, ice is a short term anesthetic in some people.
It has been said that 87% of people with RSD are not able to tolerate the cold, and 13% are not able to tolerate the heat.
