Dr. Alvarez's Initial Orders

Dr. Alvarez cleared me to do everything I've been doing, but
to take Advil all day, every day until I see her again in a
month. She believes the muscle was never fully back to 100%
after my injury, so my muscle was just worked too hard, too
soon.
Next month when I see her again she's going to see if
there's any improvement and if it's worse then she says she
may make me rest it. Her only other suggestion was that if I
can find a time when I can rest it then I should, but unless
she says I have to rest it I'm good to go.
She also warned me though that if the pain becomes too much
that I should stop whatever activity I'm doing and let it
rest for a little bit, but should be okay to return once the
pain is gone.
She thinks taking the Advil will help reduce the
inflammation which should reduce the amount of pain and
discomfort I feel and, if I have a chance to, the
combination of Advil and rest with help the muscle recover
fully.
