Here's a suggestion:


Instead of actually playing the trumpet just practice as though it was in your hand. If you know the piece well and can read the music, keep the count going on in your head or with your foot and act out the fingering of the right notes. Be sure you act as though you are actually playing the piece, when a rest comes up, stop blowing. Wait another 4 or 5 days until the scar tissue has settled somewhat. Don't drink hot things.



*Note* I havent played the trumpet in about 7 years. I tried it out for alittle over a year and realized I looked gay playing it. I was actually pretty good at it but at the time I was playing the Piano alot and had also recently tackled the Violin. I soon left it all when I turned 17 and started DeeJaying. Anyhow- do what I said and you'll be alright.
