I am one of many who seems to have chronic pain. I refuse to take painkillers because of what they can do to my body.
I am basically stuck using ice and heat. I don't have a bathtub so I don't have the option to use things like Epsom salt.
My pain is in my lower back, shoulders, and neck.
What do you do to handle pain?
I used to experienced a lot of sprain when I was heavily playing basketball everyday. What I do is I chop ginger, dip it in flour and put it on my sprained ankle. It really helped me a lot as it heals earlier than it usually does. Best relief ever!
Chronic pain is different from sprain because both have different durability.
For back pain and any bone related chronic pain, we can try Chiropractic treatment which is effective on most of the cases and relives pain soon after the treatment ends.
