cold therapy

Posted by speedygeoff on Tuesday, November 12, 2013 with
Hello world, I am not running for a few days under doctor's orders. Though I feel like I can. I went to the doctor yesterday to get cryotherapy for Bowen’s disease, for one (large) spot, which I have had for many years but which was very gradually growing, on one leg. Too much sun!
