Question:
Answers:
Take a hot bath with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts. Soak for 30 minutes. The Epsom salts will help eliminate the lactic acid that forms on the muscles from over exertion.
Massage an analgesic cream into the sore muscles.
Dehydration can cause severe pain in the muscles. I recommend you drink purified water mixed with mineral water 50/50. This will replace the minerals that are exiting your body continuously.
I suggest that adults and children drink 40 ounces of water per 100 pounds of body weight every day. Realize that exercise, ambient temperature, and state of health affect the water needs of your body.
500mg of calcium and magnesium, taken twice daily, can help with diminishing the pain. Advil capsules can help take down the pain, use them four times daily.
If you don't feel better by tomorrow see a chiropractor for help.
I just took Excedrin. I have severe neck and back pain and was given a R/x for a generic muscle relaxer / pain killer called Flexiril. Because it makes me sleepy, (I am at work) I opted to try the Excedrin and it's working. Until u r able to c ur Dr., and if u have no objection to aspirin, maybe you should give the Excedrin a try.
