Thank you for your very clear explanations. I hurt my rib muscles (possibly my oblique muscles too at it also hurts below ribs) 10 days ago. Went to the hospital here after 5 days cause the pain wasn't going away at all. The doctor told me to keep the area warm and to put some hot packs on it. An interesting thing to note is that the doctor did his diagnostic by looking at an x-ray and hearing my explanation of the pain, without exanimating directly my body. Anyway, if I follow your three steps, it means that now that the pain is less severe (as long as I don't carry more than 4kg :p), I need to move more in order to have the blood moving so that I can heal faster? I've started to walk very slowly 5 days ago, and have been walking a bit faster each day, as it is the only "workout" that I can do. I can't do any push-ups yet.
I'm wondering when I should start with the "strengthening phase". I can't wait to start it.... as I usually do some kind of calisthenics workout everyday... Thank you!

You are such a great professional. Your patientes must love you.

[johnkramer]

I am so glad to have found this video. I have been telling people for ages that if there is swelling do not apply a hot pack instead ice it. Laster build the strength slowly but let the pain reduce 1st. But so many have come back from their doctors who asked to apply a hot pack. I always wondered if that had some merit to it. Glad to have found your channel.

I love your obvious passion for helping all of the athletes like myself who get injured while swimming, biking, running and lifting. This is especially true for 71 year olds, yours truly. Thanks again! 🚴‍♂️🏊‍♂️🏋️‍♀️👍

[suestrong]

Thank you so much. Fell didn’t break him. First day after was bone pain, second day was muscle pain, today my insides hurt. Using ibprophen and Tylenol. I pray this is the healing process.

I appreciate your three-point plan for pain management, injury recovery, and body strengthening but have some incredible news to share with you.

I was hit by a car a few weeks ago, no severe injury, but it slammed into my leg pretty hard and knocked me to the ground. I was very lucky nothing shattered, broken, stretched, twisted, sprained, or torn.

Still, I could barely stand up or walk. Right leg took the full force of the hit. Deep pain from knee to ankle and of course the swelling started but I forced myself to keep walking on it.

I went to a dispensary to get gummies with 5 mg each THC and CBD then I went to a grocery store and bought blueberries to eat. I also continued my normal daily green tea routine and normal cannabis smoking (PTSD, asthma, chronic pain). I threw in a bit of dark chocolate (100 percent cocoa, no sugar).

When I looked at my leg the next morning, knee and ankle were both swollen some still but no bruising anywhere on the knee, leg, or ankle. Zero.

That's the incredible news. Not a sign of a bruise whereas if I had followed "western medicine, " I would have went to hospital or clinic and been doped up on some toxic pill pain reliever (by contrast, my cannabis tolerance is way too high for stoned effect, but it does relax), trying not to move my leg too much, and alternating ice and heat while it swelled three times the size it did and with the whole leg purple with bruise. Recovery time probably would have doubled or more.

To complete the story, I ate 60 doses of the gummies over three days (high tolerance low dosage so no stoned effect), continued the berries daily for two weeks, had a few more bites of dark chocolate, and continued my normal daily green tea and cannabis.

After 1 week, I estimate I was 90 percent recovered (swelling gone, great reduction in pain), 99 percent after two (lingering pain in ankle), and 100 percent after three. I did not use any other pain reliever or anti-inflammatory nor heat, ice, or massage. I don't even have a comfortable bed -- I did all this homeless sleeping on hard concrete each night. It took about five nights before I could lay on my right side again to have the left leg over it pushing pressure down on the right.

thanks, Ashley! looking forward to the ebook!!

Thank you Ashley, this is great information because I’ve always used a hot water bottle instead of an ice pack for my tennis elbow. I am very grateful for replying back to me 🙏🏽

Is it possible to ask for strength exercises prior do ask for stretching in order to reduce the chances of more injure to the tendons or muscles in the hips?!

[titoeltiros]

Hello, I have been with pain in my shoulders for a long time, first I had instability and then tendinitis, and I tried many exercises and methods that I have seen but it does not improve, I do not know what exercises I have already Done many types, I do not know if I do something wrong but I would appreciate a lot if you would advise me on the volume and the pesi to use in the exercises.

Have an issue with forearm caused by bowling a cricket ball back in December the area of concern is if you put your arm out in front of you looking at the crease of the arm there is a vain to the right of the middle of forearm. Feel it more if I lift anything like a kettle with water in it. Now if I bat hit cricket balls it seems ok, however after the arm is sore. Any ideas to treat I have tried massage and ice and as it’s been since December it’s not like it’s going away.
