Injury, need advice on DMSO treatment please HELP!

[DRAGO]

I had a groin injury recently and i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to use DSMO to treat it. I have a jug of it right now but i didnt know if i could crush up some pills or use something to put under it to help heal my injury. On the off season i am an avid bodybuilder but right now i am in football season (college) and need to treat this groin injury ASAP. Any ifo is greatly appreciated. Thanx

groin injury

Drago... sorry to hear of your injury Bro.
These are tough ones to treat.
Usually a groin injury is to the adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis or gracilis. They are all as painful as hell if you tear them. A strain can also be very painful. Your level of disability will vary depending on the severity of the injury. You have a decision to make. Cut your losses and rest now and hope to return very soon 100% or keep trying to play and practice and possibly face an entire season of being injured. I would recommend the rest now-heal quickly option. Sometimes this type of injury can feel brutal only to be gone in 7-10 days.
I am not a big proponent of DMSO. I prefer to rest, ice, heat, ultra sound, electrical stimulation, massage, gentle stretching and wraps. You may also choose to use anti-inflammatories. The hardest part is shutting it down to get better. From your post I cannot give much more advice. Good luck and heal quickly!

i agree with the above..... I get a lot of sprains and tears from wrestling (college also) and and i find that heat electrostim, ultrasound, and stretching will work, but yeah give yourself a rest... theres no reason to mess up the rest of your season, keepin yourself healthy is top priority, and all of the groin injuries i have gotten have subsided with a week, usually less, as for anti imflammatories..... just use advil unless its serious, then maybe vioxx but if you're thinking playing is still an option then i dont think its serious enough that you need anything that strong

Dmso works well for pain manegement and rudceing inflamation.
It works even better if you pulverise asprin and mix it with the gell and rub it in. It's best to apply a few times a day after a shower. You may get a little rash form the dmso no big deal.
