It's usually helpful to keep it warm but some people might prefer cool. Keep in mind that cold might stop the pain but for most of us the pain comes back worse.
Find a good doc. Your age and the fact it's recent are working very much in your favor to get a good outcome. Work hard and good luck.

I agree. As I stated earlier my wife protects and covers her injured arm at all costs. That arm has been covered almost continuously for 7 years and it does not look good. I wish she would lose the brace, hopefully in return a less painful arm.
