Stim and Ice
I've been reading up some more on RSD. I never ice my ankle at home (I did way back in the beginning when they were just having me treated for a sprain but then I noticed the pain was only worse so I stopped) but at physical therapy they always do electronic stimulation (stim) and ice at the end of each session. I have noticed that the stim seems to help more than anything else that I have had for the pain, but the ice always bothers me. Lately I have been feeling the pain almost immediately after the stim is over with (by the time I get to my car in the parking lot). Is this because of the ice? Should I tell them not to do the ice? I will ask the question when I go in today but I was wondering what everyone here thought.
