M.E.A.T.
This stands for Movement, Exercise, Analgesics (pain relievers), and specific Treatments that increase blood flow. To speed up recovery from an injury, an athlete or patient should put weight on the area, move the injured limb, take pain relievers that do not decrease inflammation, and then receive specific treatments that encourage healing. These include physical therapy, massage, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, magnetic therapy, and the most potent of the techniques, Prolotherapy. Prolotherapy injections to the injury site can decrease the usual and customary healing time by 50 percent or more. Most athletes who do not heal are unfortunately subjected to more myths to "help them heal," versus Prolotherapy. |
