I'm posting this here, as opposed to the Family Forum, to be sure others see it, since they post their "pains" here.
Listen-up all you geezers, I read all these "my toe hurts", "I got a hangnail", "it hurts when I kneel" threads, so I'm here to save the day
First-off, pain is just weakness leaving your body
Now do a web search for "self myofascial release", go to SprawlMart and get the rollers, I bought 3 today:

I have a severely atrophied leg (quad area), and after deciding I was going to do something the Orthopedic Geniuses couldn't, make "me" better (going almost 10 years back).
I spent about an hour working on my leg today, and I'll admit, it was painful. All the muscles feel like a bundle of sticks, I could feel it as I rolled them, they would rebound, like rolling a tennis ball over a handful of 1" sticks.
Currently, a few hours later, 75% of the soreness (from manipulating) is gone, and I can already tell a difference in the way the muscles in my leg feel. I also know it will take a lot more work to try to get things broke-loose to even resemble anything "normal", then I can concentrate on trying to build-up all the muscle mass gone from that leg. It's 2.5" smaller than my left leg.
So don't live with what's ailin' you, and look for alternatives that don't require a prescription. The medical field doesn't make money by fixing people in a quick manner.
