| Summary: | sprained My grandmother told me, that when grandfather went fishing in the spring first, he would always have a bad back. It would become sprained and very painful. This also applied to the arms-wrists [sic] as well. . . . she said there was one way that his sprain could be helped, and that was by putting red flannel on the arms.
