About a week??? Oh dear, looks like am up to mums tomorrow for her "horse tranquliser" strength pain killers

Try some deep heat type cream on it.

Margaret Pilkington · 31-01-2008, 20:10

Pain killers on a regular basis(ibuprofen if you can take it) and some warmth to the affected area......have you a wheatie bag, or a hot water bottle you could apply to the affected area?

Margaret Pilkington · 31-01-2008, 20:10

You can buy Voltarol gel at the chemists, but it isn't cheap.

Now listen to Margaret Emzy .. she a professional.

emzy · 31-01-2008, 20:15

I am doing, just nothing in the house to help

I think i need a masage lol

Margaret Pilkington · 31-01-2008, 20:15

I think that is probably very wise, but if you can buy a wheatie bag cheaply,(or better still borrow one) then they are a boon for aches and pains.......as long as you don't get too carried away and roast it for too long in the microwave.
I suffer from a frozen shoulder and use mine in a pair of tights to anchor it to the place that is sore.

emzy · 31-01-2008, 20:19

Will buy one tomorrow, where do i get them from?

MITZY · 31-01-2008, 20:22

Should be able to get one in chemist or possibly super drug, home & bargain on east gate may even have them

emzy · 31-01-2008, 20:24

Have been known to fill up an empty plastic bottle with warm water covered in a face cloth, light weight towel .. but please, please do not sue me if it splits and you get burnt.

emzy · 31-01-2008, 20:29
