Thanks for the input everyone, figured I'd follow-up. The ice helps a bunch, though I did a stupid when applying it. Got a nifty inflatable brace/icepack combo that let's me put pressure as well as the ice. Which worked like a charm. BUT I failed to put something between the ice pack and my skin, and wound up with an ice burn, I guess you'd call it LOL so I had to take a break from that while it healed.

However, I did try something else that helped and wanted to add it in. I noticed that my road bike hurt way more than my gravel bike, and started measuring things. To my surprise, the reach on the gravel bike is longer than the road bike, and the bars are way narrower. So I ordered a set of bars the same width as the GB has, and so far they feel much better.
Have been considering going to the "Kitchen Sink" bars, for the flare and the sweep, but haven't yet.
