Seventeenth session for thumb/wrist

-

About a week and half after the last session, there was hardly any difference 😞

After asking questions and testing the wrist, Lee concluded that it was still a tendon problem @@

One question that I couldn't answer then was what actions triggered the pain. Since then, I started observing and one action was when I lifted the bottom of my t-shirt. I messaged the therapist and he wasn't surprised: "Cause that is contracting and stretches it. So it put some pressure onto the tendon."

Lee administered massage and shockwave therapy. Thereafter, he asked me to ice the tendon for 3 consecutive days after completing physio exercises. He also asked me to stop the following physio exercises:

(1) The thumb mobility exercises as blogged previously i.e. (1), (2) and (3)) 

(2) Side mobility as blogged previously i.e.the new exercise then. 

He also asked me to stop a couple of my daily exercises: bicep curl and crunches. The latter is just in case I used my hands (I placed them behind my head to support my neck), which I'm sure I don't do. Anyway, now I do crunches by lifting my hands to reach my knees.

Also, he agreed with my suggestion of taking 5 minutes break after 30-min use of laptop. 

All the above stoppages are to eleminate possible actions that are aggravating the tendon.

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I ...

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba...
