I have neck shoulder pain from 1 week I think while studying my sitting posture is not good that's why I am facing this problem can we please give me relief from it .
Female | 18
Poor posture might cause your discomfort - slouching leads to stiffness. Sit upright, take breaks often, gently stretch those muscles. Warmth can soothe the soreness too. Stiff necks and shoulders signal a need for better posture habits. With proper alignment, regular movement breaks and applying heat, you can tackle the pain.

Female | 17
Shoulder blade pain is often not harmless, so it's important to see a doctor if you're experiencing it. Common causes include muscle strain or poor posture. Simple exercises like shoulder shrugs and squeezes can help strengthen the muscles and reduce discomfort. Start slowly and avoid exercises that increase your pain. It's always best to consult a physiotherapist or doctor before beginning any new exercises.

Maine ek stomach pain ki medicine liya mujhe medicine reaction krne ke baad movement ho raha body mein, 4 year se ho raha .. mere muscle tight ho gaya kampan hone se pareshan hu
Female | 22
The medication caused your muscles to get really tight and tremble. You might be having muscle tremors or spasms as a reaction. Sometimes this happens with certain medicines. Stop using the medication that made this happen. Drink lots of water. Rest up. Try easy stretches. If it keeps going, talk to a doctor.

What can I take for pain on wasteland and inner thight pain
Female | 62
You likely strained muscles in your waistband area and inner thigh. This happens when physical activity overworks muscles or uses them differently. For relief, try non-prescription pain meds like ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Rest is important. Avoid anything making the pain worse. If it doesn't improve, see a physiotherapist to check it out.

Having pain after taking Physiotherapy is that fine
Male | 23
Pain following physiotherapy feels typical, although aching occurs because exercises put stress on the body. You notice soreness, like from a workout routine. But, if it gets worse with sharp sensations, overexertion happened. Let your physiotherapist know about discomfort, adjusting therapy accordingly.

How am I meant to sit up properly after being ill for days and not being able to get out of bed properly
Female | 14
Getting up slowly is key. First, sit up carefully on your bed's edge. Breathe deeply and rise gently. Moving too fast can make you dizzy. Weakness after illness is normal; go at your own pace. If lightheadedness strikes, pause and sit again. Try once more when ready. Your body needs recovery time, so have patience.

Stimulation in whole body
Female | 62
Stimulation all over your body could be a result of various reasons. Sometimes, this is the case when you are anxious or stressed out. However, a condition such as fibromyalgia or neuropathy might also be a reason for this. Managing this problem can be done by using relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or light exercises. If the sensation persists or aggravates, seeking medical advice of a physiotherapist for further evaluation and guidance is essential.

Hi. Can I take a bath with 2 to 3 hours of sleep?
Male | 27
Don't have more than 2-3 hours of sleep then it is better if you postpone taking a bath for some time. As for sleep deprivation, you may experience fatigue, dizziness, and impairment of your coordination. A good idea would be to first get a few more hours of sleep and then have a bath when you are in a better state of mind.

Whats the best prescription for me when I have upper trapizeus muscle pain escepically when its neuralgia? Also I had been taking pain killers for my muscles: eperisone HCL tab. 50mg and NAPROXEN 500MG + ESOMEPRAZOLE 20MG TAB. The pain relievers are not working.
Male | 20
Your upper trapezius muscle pain sounds tough, especially since it's from neuralgia. Your current pain meds aren't cutting it. But don't worry, there might be options that could help. Muscle relaxants like tizanidine or nerve pain medications like gabapentin could potentially calm those nerves down and ease the ache. You'll want to chat with your doctor before trying anything new.
