How do you do physical therapy for tendinitis? Ice / cold on the wrist before, or heat, then the ice?

I used to go to physical therapy for my tendonitis in my wrists. I did not realize how much better my hands have worked so far to go I do not understand anymore, and my wrists are starting to hurt again. I I remember that was once spent a cold wrists until he could hardly stand it, and wrap a heating pad until I'd had enough. But that was before, hot or cold? I do not have health insurance, like many others out there, so I'm just going to try at home.

Warm up, work out, then cool. Heat the morning only x 10 min. Stretch, do strengthening exercises, then ice for 5 -10 minutes. You can ice all day to help with the pain and swelling. Swelling is usually what causes the pain, then use the ice helps to reduce, but the heat makes stretching more comfortable. The trick is to never heat unless you are going to be active. If you are at rest, or at the end of the day, the use of ice.
