RE: Piriformis Syndrome: My struggles and what works for me
Heat has definitely been helping - be that a hot water bottle, or a gel heat pack in the microwave. I've been alternating between the two depending on how bothered I can be - or whether my partner is having a cup of tea. :)
I've also been using the cat's heat stone, which goes in the microwave, and retains heat. My butt has been cooking so much this last week! It has been lovely, given the cold weather around here.
The other thing I forgot to mention that helps is magnesium and theracumin. It's all about reducing inflammation as much as possible.
Money is tight at the moment (wedding planning!) - which means that I'm suffering now - hopefully for the last time with this ailment! My real weak point is not stretching on a regular enough basis.
Magnesium ~ Of course. The cat's heat stone sounds great. Really hard that you have to suffer, in order to cover the wedding expenses. Have you thought of eloping? Just kidding. 😊
My findings: We exercise and feel great. Then for a while think we are fine without so much exercise. But then it comes back again. Eventually, we learn that exercise needs to be part of our basic day-to-day living. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Definitely on everything you've said!
I would have rather eloped, to be honest! :D I like having money away for a rainy day. I'm a financial tight ass, and by virtue of this spasmodic piriformis, a literal one, too. :|
