This is excellent advice. Also, ask your Dr. for a prescription for Voltaren gel. It is an nsaid but won't bother your stomach or kidneys like things taken internally. It cost me $31 with my insurance but well worth it. I will be praying that you pain lessens. I know that my ankle, hip and knee have been much better since I started this regimen only a few days ago. You only have to put a small amount on and it is nongreasy and no smell.

SO I cut a while, sew a while, sew, take a stretching break, etc. Just to break up repeating the same motion over and over. It helps a lot
