Guest guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 First off, take a break and give your hands time to heal. Iknow it's hard, but slack off on the bag work at the very least. The more you pound your hands, the longer it will take for them to heal and the more likely you are to injure them more severely (and maybe even permanantly), so you're really not doing yourself any favors by working the heavy bag. Work on forms or something with less " impact " until you're healed up. That's my suggestion. No impact until healed. And then light impact to start with. And, on the healing, I suggest the following two different methods. Massage the area with castor oil and AS YOU massage it have a heat lamp on it. Do for a minimum of 10 minutes. To keep the massaging hand from being burnt by the heat lamp, put a coat of castor oil on the back of it also. For a castor oil wrap, use wool, soak with castor oil, wrap around hand, put saran wrap over it to hold in the oil. Them put an 8 hour chem pack over it. Sleep with it on. Healing can be virtually miraculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
