That is the smart thing to do. My wife hurt herself last week during a bike ride where she flipped her bike (Picture what Subby did at much slower speed), and ended up twisting her ankle along with all kinds of other serious cuts/bruises/etc. She has been really itching to get back out running, and I keep telling her that she needs to stay off that ankle and wait for it to fully heal. Rushing back an ankle injury could set you back much further than just waiting a few more days. If you have an ankle injury that is prolonged though, I would get it checked out.

I used body glide religiously on my legs before I bought compression shorts. It was great stuff for me. I haven't ever had any nipple chafing though thankfully, but I imagine it would do great with that too, especially if you are hairy like me and don't want to pull a scene from 40 year old virgin ripping your hairs out with bandaids
