Pulled a muscle at work, does Epsom salt work?

[Anonymous]

I can't let a pulled muscle stop me from doing my best at work but my goodness it hurts.
I was reaching for something that I should have known I can't reach...

A massage gun may help. Magnesium lotion or spray may help too.

See if you find road salt made of pure magnesium salt. Epsom salt is only 1/16 magnesium content by atoms.

If you don't get direct sunlight, red and near IR light therapy.

Yes, it helps. Not a miracle cure though, your body will still need time to heal.

[Ashleywonders]

yes, it helps. I have been in your situation for the same damn reason 🤦‍♀️

Fellow short person? Yep, it makes life a lot harder than it has to be 😰

[Ashleywonders]

Yep. It sure does.
I’m 5’1”. You?

[Asker]

[Ashleywonders]

It’s ok. Short is cute ☺️

[Asker]

Haha thank you.

[Ashleywonders]

You’re welcome lol.
And if you want to feel less short I asked a question about who the shortest person here is earlier.
You tower over some hahaha

[Asker]

😂 in general I actually do like being short quite a lot, just not at work.

[Ashleywonders]

Hahah yes I hate it when it inconveniences me like that. But glad you’re happy with it in general.

Get icy hot spray from that Shaquille O’Neal commercial. How are you feeling now?

[Asker]

Better

[Iron_Man]

Ibuprofen and a good slooow stretch and massage.

[penteractgaming]

No it does not.

[Asker]

🤔 I thought it did. Any advice then?

[penteractgaming]

rest then gentle stretching to help recovery
