Ice or heat?
For sore muscles? I never know what I'm supposed to do. Does anyone know? (And by know, I don't mean go search google and then paste it here, I already did that and there are conflicting answers all over the place...so I figured someone might actually know from experience)
My biceps and triceps are killing me...this is from a workout on Wednesday night, probably exacerbated by Pilates class yesterday.
I've tried both ice and heat today and nothing has really helped, but they could have been counteracting each other. If I know which one is better and stick with it, maybe I'll get some relief.

Re: Ice or heat?
Good to know, thanks! Do you think that's 24 hours after the activity (which is technically when the "injury" occurs) or 24 hours after the pain sets in? (For instances like this one where pain is not immediate)a1mamacat wrote:sunflower wrote:For sore muscles? I never know what I'm supposed to do. Does anyone know?

Although I guess either way, by tomorrow morning I'll be at the point to use heat.

Re: Ice or heat?
Use cold until the swelling is down, at least 24 hours after you start treatment. If you apply heat too soon, you can slow down the healing process. Also Ibuprofen will help reduce swelling.sunflower wrote:Good to know, thanks!

Re: Ice or heat?
My official recommendation based on no medical experience whatsoever (well...actually I was a lifeguard so we had to do training stuff but that was mainly airway clearing, broken bones and serious lacerations..) Anyway, what I like to do is take a fiery hot bath (like seriously fiery, like you have to go in one toe at a time) and just chill there. Also if you stick your head in and leave it there when you come out you get a weird but fun lightheaded sensation for like 20 minutes so that's a fun bonus....

Re: Ice or heat?
I took a bath the other night when it was my legs that were killing me. I have to say though, that's the one thing I'm missing the normal girl gene for...I hate taking a bath. It feels weird to just sit there, and about 4 minutes in the water starts to feel cooler and I get cold and bored. Even with bubbles, and candles and all that crap, I just don't like it.

Re: Ice or heat?
When you have inflamed tissues, heat will bring more blood flow to the area and inflame them more. Heat feels good, but it is often not good for your situation.
Ice, on the other hand, has both a numbing effect and a reducing-the-inflammation effect.
Not so easy to apply to biceps and triceps, but a bag of frozen peas wraps well enough. My favorite application device is a thing that looks like a long sock with rice in it, that I leave in the freezer and wrap around whatever needs it. It's also designed to be microwaved but since heat is mostly nongood, I haven;t done that much.
If none of this is easy, what you can do is run the shower way hot and then switch to cold and then way hot and then cold, etc., finishing with cold. That's a good routine for everyday, I'm finding, not just when I'm achy. It is way good for circulation.

I was using one of those square bricks of frozen spinach! I was using a bag of frozen edamame, but those are too big, they don't mold well. I think given my options (of what is in my freezer right now), actual ice in a bag is better than anything else. I didn't try the Eggos, I'm guessing they wouldn't work very well!!
The hot/cold might work, I will try that in the morning. Thanks!!

Re: Ice or heat?
I really don't eat/buy frozen vegetables. The contents of my freezer currently include the frozen edamame, spinach, eggos, chicken and Edy's popsicles. That's it!

Re: Ice or heat?
I was a student athletic trainer in high school (trying to do it now in College) (Disclaimer: don't take my word as official medical advice) and after an athlete got injured, we always followed the RICE procedure as mentioned earlier because we didn't want the area to swell more. Then when they got home that night after the game, we told them ice 20 minutes on, 40 minutes off (or 10 minutes on 20 minutes off, etc depending on your schedule) for three times before they went to sleep using an ice bag or bag of frozen vegetables. They're a great timer because as the 20 mins was ending, the vegetables were thawed out. You don't really want to ice more then 20 minutes though because the opposite effect will soon happen and more blood will start flowing there to prevent frostbite, which you don't want happening after an injury. Then once the swelling was down, we'd do therapy to get range of motion back first, then strength, then agilities. Before a workout, we'd use heat for the pain to get the tissues flexible and the blood flowing so the athlete could have a better therapy. Then after the workout we'd use ice for pain which also cooled down the athlete slowing down blood flow, and decreasing the tissue flexibility to give the muscles a break after the workout.
P.S. We always did advocate frozen peas or corn because those two bags are the easiest to "morph" around the injured area.

Re: Ice or heat?
This is great advice right here.
The only thing I'd add is that you can get a nice gel-pack (soft) ice pak that is reusable. A brick of frozen spinach ain't gonna be as effective, unless you're preparing dinner immediately afterward.
