Ouch, get the RICE!

There's an acronym commonly used in the fitness world after an injury. If you've gone too far, or a muscle has decided to rebel, try giving that area a little RICE.

R - rest
I - ice
C - compress
E - elevate

Remember, you know your body better than anyone else. Use your best judgement and get thee to the doctor, if needed. For myself, more often that not, RICE has done the trick.
