White Vinegar

About four weeks ago I fell on my knees and they were badly in pain, my friend Dixie told me that when her boys were little, whenever they got hurt playing she would wet a paper bag with white vinegar, put it pver the affected area and then cover it with a towel (no arnica here, just a plain kitchen have-it-always and let it dry; she said it always worked wonders.

Well, guess what, I did it that very night, just that I did not have a paper bag and used a paper towel instead, and the results were wonderful; No black and blues, no swelling. I was able to attend my Sumba class as scheduled; I stopped pilates and yoga for a bit and then last week I went back to pilates, danced and will rejoin yoga next week. I even danced Rumba tonight!

Not bad considering I have broken the meniscus in both knees and a "bad" doctor took cartilage from one (all that a long time ago, when I used to play some Tennis).

Narda, your sight is packed full of interesting information. I'll remember this vinegar thing should I ever get a bruise or what have you. Hope that you're doing well.
