Re: Supplements for dealing with finger pain?
Whatever advice I get (medical or other) will only work for me if I understand how it works. So anybody giving me some magical potion better have some good explanation along with it. I realize that this is no guarantee for success (reinventors of the perpetuum mobile always have very good explanations, too), but absence of explanation guarantees failure for me.
The web rains you with advice (and explanations), that's true, but it gives your own ability of filtering nonsense something to work on (without that ability, you're lost one way or the other) - and maybe, just maybe something useful will make it past that filter. This will not make you a doctor, but it will make you a responsible person, and that's not bad either.
All those posts here contribute something, and it's better to make the effort of filtering than just trusting the one doctor who happens to reside down the street, because maybe, just maybe he's a bigger bozo than any of us mandolin players.
the world is better off without bad ideas, good ideas are better off without the world
