 I think that anytime that you have an injury and if you have a brace or like an assistive device that you put on and the pain is a lot better, I think it's okay to do that. And then rest, ice, compression, and elevation. They call it RICE is the acronym for it. So rest, don't overuse it if you've already injured it. Ice for that first 24 to 48 hours, not more than 10 to 15 minutes per hour. You don't want to like cause a skin injury from the cold.
