I laid-off for six days, and on day seven for the next three days I simply did LP buzz, MP buzz, and petals for about an hour each day. Things seemed to be coming along well. But I noticed that on the third day the difficulties were creeping back in. It seems that the damage was more chronic than I realized. Looks like recovery is going to be a lot slower than I hoped, and I probably should lay-off completely for a while longer. But I guess it's time to stop "self medicating" and seek professional help. Bummer... Thanks again for all your good advice.


" LP buzz, MP buzz, and petals for about an hour each day"
This would screw up anyone. You need a sensible practice routine.

Yeah. My teacher was an avid free/mouthpiece buzzer but never advocated for more than a few minutes per day before moving to the horn. And for some students even light buzzing wasn't productive.

Look up Reinhardt's "stuffy mute routine". It worked for me.
