deathdrow Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Yup. You have to remember your RICE. Rest Ice Compression Elevation Off Topic: Laura change your avatar back, I can't be bothered to look at people's names to see who they are. Avatars are much easier to recognize. And it hurts my eyes too. I always was taught PRICE... Pressure Rest Ice Compression Elevation oh well, doesn't really matter does it? All gets done some how and some way... just one more step... :roll: wouldn't pressure be only if the wound was bleeding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemathonical Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I'm sure even a quick search on google, or maybe even webmd would be a tad bit more sufficient then this, not saying no one knows anything, just everything google has to offer for search results probably has more information then tip.it. Well when I first did my ACL 2 years ago Ard helped me out and pretty much diagnosed what was wrong with my knee, just from previous experiences. Sure, Yahoo might have people who know, but it's a totally different community and sometimes Tipit can help you in more ways than just saying what's wrong. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

At least that is just what I have been taught (and I am FAR from being a doctor lol :lol: ) Summoning help:[hide=Wio, lol][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that is just what I have been taught (and I am FAR from being a doctor lol :lol: )Lack of pressure implies that the item in question has a lack of motion or force (ie, a static item without influence). Too much pressure and your knee would break again. :P More to the point, yes, pressure can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
