sort of work the patient does, one could slowly get back to normal, as before the tennis
elbow pain, after 1 to 2 weeks.

mouse operators, supermarket cashiers, plumbers, carpenters, truck drivers, painters
wielding a brush, nurses helping patients in and out of bed, and housekeeping jobs
such as vacuum cleaning, dishwashing, window cleaning, etc. Change the type of
continuous movement often.

WOUNDS
—
CHRONIC, NON-HEALING
This applies to all types of wounds, including burns, diabetic foot, chronic leg ulcers.
You treat the wound when you change the dressing, which may be 3 times a week.
Continue to treat the wound until you see closure—some close quickly, others more
slowly.
Clean the wound thoroughly. Old, flaky pieces of skin must be removed. Apply a non

bubbly, anti
-
infective agent such as Octenisept® that can be left in the wound after
treatment. Over this, lay a sheet of cling wrap (such as Saran
™
Wrap) to act as a germ
barrier. Atop the cling wrap, spread the ultrasound gel to carry the pressure waves.
Apply 100 pulses for every square centimeter
of wound and the area around it to kill
infections lurking below.
It is very important to treat
around
the wound as well as the
wound itself. This immediately kills infection and increases blood flow.
AFTER THE TREATMENT:
Remove the cling wrap and dispose of as a
contaminated item. Remove as much ointment as possible from the wound and dress
the wound appropriately. Clean the shockhead thoroughly as usual.
