Muscle strain at one time has effected all of us, from the
weekend athlete who over did a workout to a mother lifting up
a heavy toddler. Here is some simple solutions to help you through
this muscle strain.
- Rest, most muscle pain will go away by itself soon enough,
so just rest it and don't try to use the muscle until it's
healed.
- Ice can bring down the muscle inflammation, but if the pain
is very bad use heat.
- If the muscle pain should be in your legs, just make sure
when you lie down to keep your feet higher than your heart,
and the swelling will go down.
- If you get cramps in your legs at night you might want to
take a calcium supplement, since deficiency in that mineral
can cause cramping. Also think about the amount of potassium
you have, potassium can also cause muscle cramping.
- Warm up before any exercise, if your muscles are sufficiently
warmed up you greatly reduce the chance of injury. Also warm
down after a workout, I find this to be effective in reducing
stiffness the next day.
- Eat Pineapple, pineapple contains the enzyme called bromelain
which helps repair injured tissue. I wonder if pineapple on
top of a pizza counts, hmmmm, well, maybe not.
Nausea is just one of those things we've all had to deal with
once in or life. It's just a miserable feeling, but hark, here
comes some remedies for that nausea that plagues you:
- Researchers say that Ginger is one of the best things to
get rid of Nausea. So, get yourself some fresh ginger and
put it in tea or you can have some ginger capsules. You can
find both of these items at a health food store.
- Ginger ale also works on the nausea, just drink slowly and
it should help you overcome nausea.
- Tea, either Camomile or peppermint can also effectively
get rid of nausea.
- You could also try the pressure point between the thumb
and forefinger. Supposedly this point on the body will help
remove the queasy feeling and prevent you from throwing up.
- Vomit or not to vomit, that is the question, whether it
will cure the nausea or not, it may be the only way to start
feeling better.
So you've just knocked on a door, unfortunately, you tripped
right before you came near the door and knocked it with your
nose. See how a person can get a nosebleed, well here is a few
ways to fix it up quick:
- Blow your nose, getting out any clots, then apply pressure
to the fleshy part of your nose for a few minutes, if it doesn't
stop with this continue to apply pressure. If you want an
alternative to this, you can place cotton soaked in white
vinegar in your nostril that is bleeding.
- Use ice to reduce swelling on the nose.
- You could be iron deficient if you get many nosebleeds,
so you might want to increase your iron intake or you can
add a supplement to your diet. I think it would be best to
change your diet to add some high Iron foods. Yarrow tea may
also reduce the chance of nosebleeds.
- Too much aspirin can cause nosebleeds. Now this has happened
to me, taking too much aspirin thins the blood, and if you
take a lot it thins it too much making nosebleeds occur more
often.
