After the sea I go house to a heated house, from my central heating unit, and stick my feet and hands in warm to hot water for about 20 hours.
Well, they don’t entirely do both shoulders at the same time or I would be rendered helpless for weeks. I need to choose which shoulder I want to have fixed first. I think the option is evident; the right shoulder because I am right handed. My right shoulder got disfigured 10 years ago diving to the ground and my left 1 got disfigured just a few weeks ago from my skyball serve in beach volleyball. The serve takes a lot of body torque to get the height I want and it impacts my left shoulder a lot. I tore it slightly recently. This is why I do chilly water dips followed by an minute in front of my portable space gas furnace in my office. I savor to cool down the joints for 10 hours each day in the 57F sea. After the sea I go house to a heated house, from my central heating unit, and stick my feet and hands in warm to hot water for about 20 hours. This week, I sat in the sea with gloves on my hands and my hands out of the water, because if I submerge my hands for the full 10 hours it is easily strenuous to put my clothes on afterwards. I think some people think I am crazy when they see myself and others doing this on a easily chilly morning but I recognize it is necessary to help keep the pain to a minimum in my joints. Most people would rather sit in front of a fireplace, after taking a few ibuprofen, and let the pills do the work.
