Out of all the facilitations we've done, kini ang pinaka-informational. Wala ko ga expect ning ato diay. I thought roleplay or games pa rin.

I'm so glad wala ko ni absent that day. I went inside just hoping to enjoy whatever games the facilitators prepared for the class, but I went out more confident with my skills and feeling more equipped.

The facilitation helped refresh some basic skills I've been learning since elementary (girl scout girlie yan sha pero limot pa rin ang basic bandaging) and taught me a couple more novel to me. And it didn't just end there! They also debunked some "did you know" facts I've always thought were the right thing to do before that session; like mo hangad if naay nosebleed OR KANANG MAGBUTANG TOOTHPASTE SA BURN?! sus jusko po, I've been doing it wrong. mao diay mas mo grabe ang sakit.

hayy, poor me... little do I know talaga.

Now, I know better. I'm a changed person na ang atake. I'm more confident mo tabang sa ako kaugalingon and sa uban (not too rashly though kay na-learn sad nako through their debriefing na if you jump to help others tapos nilala ang ilang condition kay ikaw ang ma hold accountable, and mas maka do more harm than good nuon imong good intention).

LPT: When you sprain an extremity, remember R.I.C.E ( Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation )

LPT: When you sprain an extremity, remember R.I.C.E ( Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation )

Rest is essential to keep from injuring it any further. Ice and compression will help with the swelling and elevation will keep the blood from pooling in the extremity and promote vascular return.

R.I.C.E

Hello everyone, Runner 5 here. I wanted to give a tip on running, This tip is called R.I.C.E; Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation

I bring this up because, I am now applying this to my legs. Beginners and professionals alike injure their legs. Don't be ashamed and don't push yourself while injured. Though some light exercise can sometime make you feel better. 

R.I.C.E relieves both pain and swelling and promote healing and flexibility. Apply ASAP

Rest- Take a break. Pushing yourself to far will cause more harm then good. (If you can try to stay away from any zombie infected areas so to be able to have a good rest. Try some good high ground.)

Ice- Apply Ice ASAP for 10-20 minutes, 3-4 times a day. After 48-72 hours apply ice, if swelling is gone. (If you can't find ice. Cold rag or anything you can find that's cold will some what work.)

Compression- Wrap injured/sore area with an ACE bandage. Do not wrap to tight. Signs to its to tight is; numbness, tingling, increased pain, coolness, or swelling in the area below the bandage. (A few ripped up Shirts will work in a pinch)

Elevation- Elevate while applying ice, sitting or lying down. Try to keep your injured area above your heart.

You may also take Advil or Motrin, if you can find some of course.

Well, Janine is wanting me to stop wasting resources, now. So stay safe and keep running...Unless your injured, then R.I.C.E

Shit happens, it's how we deal with it that counts...

I’m definitely getting better at listening to my body. Today I got a twinge in my neck during rope climb and my stomach sank at the possibility of being out of action. Even after a good warm up and stretch these things still manage to happen. I got proactive at minimising the stress to my neck by resting all lunchtime, keeping it warm and stretching it out. I even missed my pole dance class after school!

I got straight home and into a hot salt and oil bath, then on to bed. I’ve woken up three hours later and my neck feels like it’s at about 90%, thank goodness. The weather is on the turn so must keep it warm. Hoody and scarf tomorrow me thinks.

In other injury news, the sprained wrist is pretty much healed despite still using it. The strap, Voltarol gel and tablets plus icing has defo done the trick. R.I.C.E is the way forward!

Right, I’m back off to bed to try and get another six hours kip. Flying trapeze tomorrow!!!

Zzzzzzz :-)

The Truth on Ice and Injury.

When you roll an ankle, twist a knee or wrist always grab ice followed by Rest, Ice, Compress, and Elevate or R.I.C.E.

But if you have an injury or ache that is persistent here is a thought....

Have you ever been chewing gum and ice cubes at the same time? Yes you guessed it the gum turns stiff and hard.  Well skin and muscle do the same thing.So instead of slapping that cold ice pack on try this. 

Get that ice pack out of freezer.

Pull a hand towel from cabinet and roll it up and thoroughly. Wet it, then squeeze until it is not dripping. Now Place the hand towel in the microwave for 1 minute.

You now take the steamed towel (be cautious of the steam) and wrap it around the ice pack and place it on the injury.

The heat feels wonderful to you, your skin and your muscles. The muscles become more pliable and are willing to except the cold that is penetrating through the towel. The cold pushes deeper into the muscle and the injury will respond faster.

and there you have it, a much more effective use of ice on an injury.

R.I.C.E

What do you do straight after an acute injury such as a twisted ankle, muscle tear or back strain? Use R.I.C.E- rest, ice compression and elevation. The steps are outlined here:
