Neuropathy, also known as peripheral neuropathy, refers to a range of health problems that involve damage to the peripheral nerves. It can result from a wide range of conditions, such as diabetes and treatments like chemotherapy. Learn more about neuropathy below.
if it works for you, please add on in the tags/replies/rbs - like what kind of pain it helps you with.
my main problem is nerve pain, and muscle pain from chronic spasming, due to nerve damage. and i really need some relief (please don't recommend me medications).
Rolling up to the anarchist cookout on 1800 mg gabapentin so I can put weight on my left leg without astral projecting into the Pain Dimension like "how do you do, my fellow comrades, I am what the kids call 'stoned out of my gourd'"
I'm sorta back and working on those longer replies in my ask box and I may say "please forgive my long response" but I want you to know that I'm not sorry for the many paragraphs of thoughts I have about Namor and I'm not sorry to inflict this upon you all. Its just a warning that I cannot shut up about this character.
Me, spending about 6 hours every day just managing my chronic pain, doing stuff like physical therapy as well as laying in bed with the most fierce intent towards relaxation that the world has ever seen: I have-- to rest-- to calm the nerve pain-- I need to get up and be-- a faggot-- I can't give up-- The world needs me and my-- my fruity ways--
(I am, of course, also a faggot laying down, but I do have to lay here long enough to help the pain and eventually get up to do other faggoty-dyke things out in the world. It's hard to tell if I'm doing it right sometimes.
But with great Faggotry comes great responsibility, you know.
And I simply cannot attend to all of my fruity duties if my body is on the verge of collapse! As hard as it is for me to show myself the grace I need, I must rest and forgive myself - lest I become nothing more than an anxious rainbow smear on the pavement.
And I can't become a pavement smear because then the world would be less queer without me! And also I have plans this evening! And so many more faggotries to enact before the day is through!)
happy november, it's diabetes awareness month!! in honor of the occasion i thought i would list some weird and lesser-known side effects that can happen with certain types of diabetes because literally fucking everything is because of this disease:
more frequent/intense hiccups
2. grooves through your fingernails (aka beau's lines)
3. loss of smell
4. usually comorbid with anxiety and depression (of course it is)
5. fuzzy/tingling tongue (usually caused by low blood sugar)
While sitting, hamstrings are contracted, which pulls hips and gluteal muscles. This can cause posture imbalances. You may experience low back pain and tension.
Align your right knee above your ankle. The place your left ankle crossed onto your right knee. Keep your back flat. Bend at the waist towards your leg shin. You should feel a stretch in your gluteus and hamstrings. This will help loosen your low back and hips. It will also help alleviate pain. Perform this stretch several times throughout the day, especially if you have a sedentary lifestyle.
During work, I stretch 10-15 seconds on each side once an hour. At home, I stretch up to two minutes each side.
it went good and im not having any pain yet 👀👀 what they did is they probed the tract (under general) and used cautery to open it up and burn the edges of the wound... so now i have a 5cm long open wound shsieiq9ajahwha but the goal is that it granulates and produces tissue from the bottom up (where its not burnt) so that the skin doesnt close up first and create another tract
it is me, the fool, trying to figure out if i should call my boss tomorrow, on my day off no less, and officially tell him to remove me from promotion consideration ... or will i finally have the nerve to do it on wednesday and in person
