remedy muscle pain old folks

If you can work like that, then why do you need ebt?

You probably worked out muscles that were inactive. If you gardened today and you feel that bad today, realise it'll hurt much more tomorrow. A hot water bottle will relax your muscles and ease pain but if it was me, Id buy a product with an anti inflammatory. A natural one is sloe berries (gin) :-)

I use Tumeric. Have to use quite a bit to get the same effects as ibuprofen. Like 2 tablespoons worth.

I mix turmeric with just enough olive oil to make cake-like clumps. 1/4 teaspoon at a time I throw the little pieces back with some cold tea. Once you get the process down the clumps fly right down without breaking apart at the top of your throat.

Really does work quite well as an anti-inflammatory when you take enough (2 TABLESPOONS for me 'cause I'm big 6-2, 225).

ibuprofin is very good otc. or aspirin works well for me also

Or you can buy the Tumeric capsules and I need to take about 10 for any significant effect. But those can get quite expensive at that rate.

Hot bath with epsom salt! It will help pull the lactic acid out of the muscle.

Massage would help a lot too. Got anyone you can swap back rubs with? They get their rub NEXT weekend ;)

Black Sambuca ;)

Grow medicinal plants and make salve.

Cannabis Topicals (applied to the skin)

Cannabinoids combined with a penetrating topical cream can enter the skin and body tissues and allow for direct application to affected areas (e.g. allergic skin reactions, post-herpes neuralgia, muscle strain, inflammation, swelling, etc.).
•Cannabinoids in cannabis interact with CB1 and CB2 receptors that are found all over the body, including the skin.
•Both THC and Cannabidiol (CBD) have been found to provide pain relief and reduce inflammation.
•Topical cannabis use does not produce a psychoactive effect, which is different from eating or inhaling the medicine.

Different types of cannabis topicals include:
•Salve: cannabinoids heated into coconut oil combined with bees wax and cooled. Rub directly on skin.
•Cream: cannabinoids heated into shea butter combined with other ingredients and cooled. Rub directly on skin.

Topicals may produce anti-inflammatory and analgesic or pain relief effects.. Research has to date been limited to studies on allergic and post-herpes skin reactions and pain relief. Anecdotal reports on topical treatment efficacy include:
•Certain types of dermatitis (including atopic) and psoriasis
•Balm for lips, fever blisters, herpes
•Superficial wounds, cuts, acne pimples, furuncles, corns, certain nail fungus
•Rheumatism and arthritic pains (up to the 2nd degree of arthritis)
•Torticollis, back pains, muscular pains and cramps, sprains and other contusions
•Phlebitis, venous ulcerations
•Hemorrhoids
•Menstruation pains
•Cold and sore throat, bronchitis
•Asthmatic problems with breathing
•Chronic inflammation of larynx (application in the form of a Priessnitz compress)
•Migraine, head pains, tension headaches
•Pharmaceutical Cannabis or Cannabinoids

Um...amphetamine???? Do you mean acetaminophen? That's not going to relieve sore muscles like aspirin or ibuprofen will.

Soak in epsom salt and/or take a magnesium supplement, and get some arnica oil to rub into the sore spots.

Shit. Amphetamine would work too. It wouldn't touch the pain, but you probably wouldn't give a fuck.

Naproxin

Honey, when you get the money, buy you some magnesium caplets to take. They really do work as far as helping your muscles to really relax.and also check out this website I found that makes this great homeopathic stuff called Valerin.if you buy a bottle they will send you a free bottle of the same stuff. I have had great results with these folks and they are very good.
Love them!
I also buy collagen gel from them, too. It helps to tighten up my skin so that I don't look so tired all the time.

Sorry you are hurting.I'm 58 and have MS as a result of working with petroleum based chemicals,used to operate printing presses,run gas and diesel powered equipment and worked on my own vehicles. Unfortunately,I now react to almost any air borne chemicals,like dryer sheets,fabric softeners,shampoos,conditioners,carpet cleaners,gasoline and diesel fumes and many others.

Makes me ache all over,irritated eyes,respiratory problems,digestive problems,motor skill loss,memory and cognitive skills all deteriorate rapidly with exposure.

So I suggest that you remove chemicals from your environment if at all possible,and detox with showers and soaking baths.Also take dandelion and/or milk thistle to speed up the process.

The cold processed pot salves and oils do help, and since they are cold processed the THC is not activated so no drugged feeling side-effects.

Don't know if this advice will help you..Also any sort of sun activity seems to bring on a detoxing effect,so lots more symptoms crop up during these times.

Check on facebook under The Sun and Human Health for others that are affected and post..Easy group to join,and also check Multiple Chemical Sensitivity groups for others being affected at the same time.

just start stretching. Stretch before bed and in the morning before you do any yard work. I am 35 with massive back problems and have found that stretching is the better than any pain killer.. The more you do it, the less pain you will be in when done a job.

otherwise known as aleve, and yes it works good too..

Think how beautiful the yard will be..that's your reward. Can you plant veggies? Have a back up. You should always have a plan B.
You're just tired and tomorrow will be brighter. You're lucky to have land to work..

Fucking parasite.

and leave her alone! Don't worry, you'll be old one day,too,asshole!

Read highlighted parts. It has nothing to do with her muscle pain.

Most people not on the dole can't afford vitamins and minerals, certainly not coconut oil. Also, it must be nice to buy alcohol with free money.

Call me an asshole, but I believe when one is given free money, that money should only be used for essentials.

Gelatin, about 20 - 30 grams a day.

I'd heard this. Buy unflavored Knox and mix it into tea or juice.

avoid sugars even in fruit

reduce carbohydrates 80%

eat proteins and veggies

immediate relief

been there, done that

I'm waiting on the voc rehab waiting list. I can work intellectually too, but its been awhile and I have some troubling symptoms. I'm working with employment counsellors at mental health. They can offer me a lot of workplace support once I'm served by voc rehab. Big dumb government has some good programs. I don't think I could stand to flip out in another workplace trying to get my own job.

ADD meds. I try not to abuse, but for energy and working through pain they work.

Magnesium supplements are good. And I will buy Epson salts when I can at midnight. Thanks.

take a hammer hit yourself in the balls and you will forget about the muscle pain..

I wasn't born on the dole. I had a breakdown in March. PTSD, the real kind, not the ka-ching kind. I can't afford to live on free money but I'm using it while I "rehabilitate myself". I have things I had before I flipped, like a cabinet full of vitamins.

When I knew I was going broke I stocked up on things like a big bag of premium basmati rice and protein powder. I also stocked up on good quality oil. I forgot to stock up on soap. I had to get real creative with baking soda and coconut oil.

It's funny what I miss. I am happier on a simple diet. I like that part. I miss keeping my hair trimmed and going out for coffee. I've started going to worship services because my congregation has excellent coffee! Maybe there is a God luring me back.

My garden fills the need for work and the time. It's also getting me in shape. Also, hard work burns off adrenaline. I don't go berserk on days I've worked to exhaustion. It raises serotonin and depletes dopamine.

I don't feel bad about using public money this way. If a shot will help me sleep and function I don't feel bad about buying one with public funds. I've seen abuses of welfare and fake disability. I've seen a lot of fake PTSD. Its pretty obvious. . I can't police it. It's part of the cost of providing services to people who benefit and give back. Government does many more wasteful things with tax money than give poor people spending money. From what I've seen the life of a cheat and fraud isnt all that luxurious or enviable. They aren't getting away with much.

Aren't you the optimist. I haven't had sex in at least eight years. Maybe Medicaid will provide me a surrogate partner.

If you buy staples at a good price per unit and can eat pintos and rice with onion three meals a couple of times a week there is food assistance left over for fresh fruit and good quality oil, which your body needs. The trick is to avoid convenience packaging and preprepared foods. If you eat simply enough you can afford organic.

You aren't an asshole for disliking people who misuse a system we have to have in place for people who need it. I think a lot of the misuse is people who don't know how to get themselves together so they can move on. It costs less to maintain them on free stuff than to actually help them. I'm fortunate to live in a county that can afford to really help me, wirh psychosocial rehabilitation and employment counseling and therapy and classes. Before I am paying enough taxes to pay back what I've received, I can be teaching other crazy poor people things I know that might be useful to them. They will let me do that, as a volunteer or for a small wage.
