ICE

Since I hurt my back again, I found this article on the benefits of ICE with some alternative sources to be very helpful. You might also.
The bucket: Fill bucket with ice and water and plunge area into the ice-cold water.
Vegetable?: Frozen peas are great to use. They are little and flexible.
Fruity alternative: Great for feet or back of legs. Place can of frozen juice on the ground and roll foot over it. For back of legs do the same but roll calves over the container.
Slushy: Make your own flexible frozen gel-pack. one part alcohol and three parts water. The slushy compound will mold to fit the injury.
Traveling ice man:IF traveling carry a couple of empty freezer bags. A restaurant will give you ice if somethings happens. A big sock could also work.
Be careful and be prepared.
