Constant re-injury will result in scar tissue there, and be more prone to re-injury.
As bad as it sounds, for me, the cure was simply 4 months of staying away from any activity that could injur it.
It was frustrating as heck, since I was a marathoner, like to swim, triathlons, etc. Even brisk walking could make it smart a little.
I finally stopped everything for 4 months, and it healed. No problems since.
Hello
when you stay stop "everything" what do you mean? Cooking dinner ok? Gentle Stretching?. I'm so frustrated with this.
