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 vast majority of the marketâs gains came while Barack Obama was President, but since Donald Trump was elected the Dow has tacked on more than twenty-five hundred points, or about twelve per cent. Last week, it closed above twenty-one thousand for the first time, and we also saw the I.P.O. of Snap, the social-media company that owns Snapchat. At the end of Snapâs first day of trading, the market placed a notional valuation on the firm, which has always operated at a loss, of thirty-four billion dollars.
