The cost of the doctor was negligible, when it comes to my hands. If you reread my post, I state very plainly that I chose a conservative method of treatment. And, the ICY/HOT is my choice. And I did take the advice of my friends, which was to (1) see a doctor; (2) immobilize my wrist; (3) use some type of salve for the pain.Had I not been prepared to listen and take the advice of friends, I wouldn't have posted my dilemna.
