Avatar f tn Epsom salt is a laxative that works by drawing water from the walls of your intestines into your faeces, which makes them softer (and often quite fluid). It can make you feel cleansed for a little bit, but it's important not to overdo it. An epsom salt cleanse should only be done once a month, at the very most. Excessive magnesium damages the kidneys, and kidney damage cannot be reversed (unlike some forms of liver damage), so take good care of your kidneys.

Avatar f tn Hi guys! This is my second pregnancy, and I'm around 5w4d and I don't have my first obgyn appointment until I'm 9 weeks. I'm just wondering if anyone's ever used Epsom salt for a bath to help with bad back pain, I've heard it's safe for pregnancy, but my obyns office isn't open until Monday to ask about it. I've been having terrible back pain already lol thanks!

Avatar n tn We virtually eat the same foods and I almost never smell. I thought maybe he needs a colon cleanse? What should he do so that every time he passes gas, or has a bowel movement we don't have to run to the other room!!?
Avatar f tn twice a day and I still suppliment with tums. Will a colon cleanse solve my problem? I am desparate to feel normal again.
Avatar f tn This cleanse is meant to be used as a juice fast and laxative-based colon detox. You want to use it differently. I have no idea if this works if you do it the way they suggest, though I can almost guarantee the cleanse has nothing to do with weight loss -- if you stop eating of course you'll lose weight. When you start eating again, unless you change your diet, you'll gain the weight back. Using laxatives can be helpful in a short-term fast, but they can also be tricky.

Your Dr. Can prescribe suppositories and cream or u can get I've the counter calmol 4 suppositories. Hope this helps. Also try to up your Fiber. I take a colace stool softener everyday to or prevent hems. And don't strain.
Avatar f tn Very safe, I would usually put half a cup or so/ a few tablespoons. I haven't had Epsom salts around recently so used Himalayan rock salt instead in a bath at before bed, swelling was much better in the morning but can't tell if it was from a salt bath or just sleeping :p Either way, Epsom salt baths are very healthy in pregnancy anyway so no harm in trying...
Avatar f tn Ok mommys if any of you didn't know, epsom salt baths work miracles during pregnancy! It helps sore muscles and achey backs go away, it reduces swelling, increases seratonin levels, raises magnesium levels, and it is a safe detox for your body. I hear dead sea salt baths are good too! Just make sure you drink plenty of water afterwards since it does detox!
8924846 tn?1410572901 I highly reccomend epsom salt baths! My feet and back have been killing me the past few days and my dr told me to try epsom salt baths. I feel so relaxed and not in pain after I get out. I have done it with both warm and cool water and both feel amazing!!!!!! Just add a handful of epsom salt to your bath!!
737386 tn?1254350426 I love a Epsom Salt soak in a tub. I have been told that it raises levels of magnesium, that your body absorbs it while you soak. Among other benefits, magnesium aids with the muscle function. Whatever the case, soaks definitely relieve the discomfort of arthritis and associated problems.
