Once the pain subsides, mine took about 10 days, think of all the planning you can do. I went thru my patterns and picked out the fabrics and made kits out of them in large zip lock bags. Cut patterns out of my magazines and took many on line classes. Lots of quilting activities we normally don't have time for, I did. I didn't need physical theraphy but I still have a lump on the side of my wrist bigger than the right side. Enjoy a little down time and be good to yourself. Hugs
