The goals of the treatment for De Quervain's tenosynovitis are to reduce the
inflmmation in tenosynovial sac, prevent the formation of adhesions and
recurrence. The therapy in acute setting consists of pain relief and
restriction of the thumb gripping and grasping.
Pain relief can be accomplished with ice applications (15 minutes every 4 to
6 hours). Motrin may also be helpful if symptoms are recent onset.
Application of hydrocortison gel to the area daily helps to relieve the pain
in minor case

上周五下班时感觉很疲惫
实在不想锻炼了
可是一想今天不练又拖到下周一
这就变一周一练了 怎么能这么懒惰
就还是奔向了健身房
动作完成的还可以 卧推最大组 275磅做两个
练完立马转战中国店 sam target买菜
周六我家要开爬梯
Sam这么大的店居然卖的有机奶没有全脂的
害的我上次被lp骂说虐待儿子 还要多跑个店
周六早上起来就感觉自己发烧
可不能客人来了 叫外卖吧?
硬着头皮上阵 准备十菜一汤
晚上宾主尽欢 大家吃地兴高采烈
直夸咱手艺好 特别是面片
还好工作的中国朋友们都是一人一瓶啤酒的量
不是大学的中国哥们们都是一人一瓶白酒的量
不然 我当晚就要醉酒加发烧的难忘体验了
当时根本没当回事 感冒么发下烧么 睡一晚就好了
谁知道我在接下去的六天都在断断续续发烧
头俩天扛着没吃药
第三天开始吃cold relief 一吃就出汗
所有发烧咳嗽喉咙疼症状都缓解 但是过3,4个小时症状又加剧
第五天看医生开了阿奇霉素
我打开一看只有六小片 管用么?
期间还要吃cold relief退烧 就跟瘾君子类似了 不然根本没法工作
第七天 终于自己退烧了 终于可以回家抱抱粉嘟嘟的儿子了
过去7天 我... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Golf版 - golf rule question
Oh, I now read it again carefully. It says:
For C:
His only reasonable stroke is sideways to the fairway, and his stance for
such a stroke would be on the cart path.
Now, because he have to stand on the cart path, which is an immovable
obstruction, he can get relief. I know that if he hit his ball directly to
C, he will get relief because he have to stand on cart path.
Actually I am interested in these sort of rules because I hit the ball all
over the course, sometimes in very difficult situat

Unfortunately you can only use shotgun, muzzle loader and handgun (LOL) for
deer hunting in illinois.
With rifled barrel and sabot slug, the MBPR is about 125yd.
This is LZ's friend. I am providing more details related to the incident.
The gun is Beretta Urika 390 it is gas operated semi so the recoil is much
lighter than a pump action.
The scope is bushnell trophy xlt
Bone collector edition 3x9-40, set at 3x. The stated eye relief spec is 4".
The ammo is Lightfield 12ga 2-3/4" sabot slug wit... 阅读全帖

来自主题: GunsAndGears版 - 对SWFA 很不满
嗯, 不安装到枪上面, 很难扶稳。 曾经试图拿布条安装在三脚架上, 也不大成功
简单说一下, 我这款镜子不是SS 的高端产品, 而且俺也没真正的使用, 所以俺的意
见仅作极其初步的参考哈
买的时候, 完全是被SWFA 上面一些极其好的评价引导作出了购买决定
但是在试用的过程中, 发现几点: 一时玻璃没有那些评论说的那么清晰, 感觉比不
上俺的BUSHNELL LEGEND HD, 那一款也是299, 4.5-14倍; 二是这款SS 的镜子似
乎对于eye relief要求很critical, 就是说眼睛距离离目镜的要求比较苛刻, 这是俺
最不满的一点, 俺希望this eye relief is not so critical, not so tight
另外就是上面谈到的, 没有镜头盖子, 另外30毫米的井筒, 还需要另买镜环。 镜环
这点是早就考虑了的。 但是所有这些负面因素加在一起, 感觉没必要保留。

来自主题: GunsAndGears版 - 瑞士K31加光学瞄准镜初体验
一直都听说施密特儒傧K31是一款非常准的军剩步枪,俺恰好当年进过一支30年代生产
的。以前用铁瞄玩过几次,K31的铁瞄不是太好用,所以这支步枪的精度一直也不能确
定。俺最近决定在不改枪的前提下,上个简易的光瞄,以便测测K31闻名的精度是否名
副其实。
于是买了一个把rear sight换掉的scout mount,装起来很简单,不用任何永久性改造
,几分钟完成。这个位置镜子不好找,结果决定先试验一个39.99的NCStar的long eye
relief scope。
今天下午第一次去试验了一下,用了GP11产于1979年的军剩弹药。NCStar的镜子果然如
网上评论,基本只能算玩具。其实成像的亮度还是可以的,就是调节基本毫无准确性可
言,elevation和windage基本靠瞎蒙。如果着弹点高4寸,按照镜子所注的每一click是
1/4MOA,100码调16下,结果还高3寸,再调16下,低了。Windage也一样。结果乱调一

归零了以后打了10发,这里展示前六发,3发一组。第一组大约呈一个等边三角形,第
