Rest your body. It needs time to heal. Ice your shin to ease pain and swelling. Do it for 20-30 minutes every 3 to 4 hours for 2 to 3 days, or until the pain is gone. Take anti-inflammatory painkillers. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), like ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin, will help with pain and swelling.
Through Friday, since Mr. Obamaâs inauguration â his first 1,368 days in office â the Dow Jones industrial average has gained 67.9 percent. Thatâs an extremely strong performance â the fifth best for an equivalent period among all American presidents since 1900.
The market's downward trend persisted Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.67% falling 332.13 points, or 4%, to stand at 7,949.09, its first close below the 8,000 mark since Nov. 20. This marked the blue-chip average's worst performance for a U.S. inauguration since the Dow was created in 1896.
