Avatar m tn Over the last 2 years I have built up the muscles in my feet and have increased flexibility with daily stretches and exercises but still suffer from painful cramp in my arches and toes. It seems to occur when my toes are pointed for long periods of time as I tend to tense my feet quite hard.
Avatar f tn It has the correct stretches for every sport. Your shin pain and plantar fasciitis may be related. When your shin hurts you may be adjusting your movement and huring your heel. Once you have the right shoes, both conditions will be helped by stretching.
Avatar m tn s uncomfortable to sit even for short periods of time as there is a dull pain from my glutes down the back of my legs. I have been to a spinal PT and I temporarily felt better but not much. He focused only on my spine and said my movement was very limited for a 27 year old. I had an X-ray taken in December that my Internal Med. Physician initially said revealed dehydrated discs around the S1 area but later said they looked fine. I have been doing yoga 3-5 times a week the past 1.
Avatar n tn lentles or spaghetti or rice with chicken for lunch and a chocolate for a snack and for dinner I would eat a sandwitch or something ... but bcause I am very busy and I have no time to go home throughout the day which leads me to eating 3 to 4 sandwitches and 1 or 2 eggs to get on with the day...
Avatar n tn Vigorous low-impact exercise is beneficial – for your joints, as well as for cardiovascular, pulmonary, and other systems in your body. If you can't do vigorous exercise, try walking, tai chi and yoga. If you're overweight then you need to diet. Drink concentrated tart cherry juice. it contains anthocyanins and bioflavonoids, which help support a healthy immune response for your joints. Make sure you're getting your vit. D, omega-3 fatty acids from krill or high quality fish oil.

1239769 tn?1275482459 s just back spasms? She gave me some stretches to do, but does anyone else have any other ideas, because the stretches apparently aren't working. Mainly, pillows to use at night? I'm currently sleeping with pillows on all sides of me so I don't end up on my back, but usually wake up several times a night because I'm uncomfortable. I'm only 12 weeks along, could he already be on a nerve or something?
Avatar f tn So, I just had my first prenatal yoga class and it was amazing. The stretches helped my lower back soooo much. I highly recommend it!
Avatar n tn m sitting at my desk and stretching my arms back. It stretches my back/upper torso and arms, but when I do it I seem to hold my breathe a bit and it causes a very intense pain on the very top of my head. The intensity goes down after a few moments and then a small headache lingers from a few minutes to a few hours. I don't try to hold my breathe though and I don't hold the stretch for more than a few seconds.
Avatar m tn Yoga is a fantastic way to stay active and healthy, but it's important to have the right equipment to help you perform your poses with ease and safety. One of the most essential items in your yoga kit is a non-slip yoga mat, which can help prevent slips and falls and provide better stability during your practice. Additionally, a yoga stretching strap can be an invaluable tool for deepening your stretches and improving your flexibility.
Avatar m tn I had lap dances from two different dancers. I kissed and sucked on their breasts for an extended period of time. Was there risk of exposure at this point? I also rubbed the top of one dancers clitoris. This encountered on occured on a Wednesday night. I had a cut on my finger that I had used the previous Friday. It was not bleeding. Was there risk of exposure here? Finally the dancer had pulled down my pants to try and convince me to get a blow job. I refused.
Avatar n tn Perform yoga or stretches after each exercise session to improve your flexibility and reduce your risk of soreness and injuries. Stretching helps to elongate your muscles to give your legs a leaner appearance. No excess sodium and improve your diet to reduce water retention. Your knees and other areas appear larger when you carry excess water. Cut out processed meat, table salt, salty snack foods, canned foods and most frozen dinners.
Avatar f tn t bounce around or exert too much. It is amazing for strength and flexibility and burns calories too.
Avatar m tn I may try to see my orthopedic doctor and maybe get an MRI. I tried hip abductor stretches, also ice and muscle strengthing. Last night I could not a lay a way that did not hurt. I use motrin. Advice and tips welcome.
1301089 tn?1290666571 (AP) — A Southern Baptist leader who is calling for Christians to avoid yoga and its spiritual attachments is getting plenty of pushback from enthusiasts who defend the ancient practice. Southern Baptist Seminary President Albert Mohler says the stretching and meditative discipline derived from Eastern religions is not a Christian pathway to God. Mohler said he objects to "the idea that the body is a vehicle for reaching consciousness with the divine.
Avatar f tn Rolling hips slowly around like a hula hoop is good. Wide squats are good for flexibility and leg and glute strength, but sometimes aggrivate my sciatic. Swinging your arms as they dangle at your sides, in a circle, stretches your back and whole middle body. Rolling ankles helps blood flow and soreness. I like downward facing dog or modified child's pose (with belly on floor and legs out to make space) to stretch back and to relieve pelvic pressure.
Avatar f tn Warming up with gentle stretching can help get your body ready for your workout. Gentle stretches such as side bends, shoulder shrugs, arm circles, overhead stretches, and bending to reach (but not touch) your toes are all good warm-up exercises. Do three to five repetitions of each. If you are swimming or walking, you can also warm up with a slower swim or walk. If you have OA in your knees or hips, you want to avoid any jolting exercise like jogging that causes your feet to pound the ground.
Avatar m tn Thank you Dr. Hook. Finally, I am a little worried on the fact that I also licked and sucked the dancers' nipples for a few minutes (which I supposed were sucked by too many guys before me). My concern is that I have read on this forum that herpes may be transferred from the mouth to the nipples, under certain conditions.
481656 tn?1213824080 If my memory serves me well, science is not sure what to do about muscle cramps. I may be way off here, but stretching ala Yoga, dancers stretches, and eating a banana or 2 has helped me. Since I only get them in my calves(and very rarely) I'm not sure if my advice will help, but I grab the cramped muscle with both hands and squeeze the heck out of it. Don't ask me why it works. I think it has to do with not letting it contract or fill will fluid.
Avatar m tn Its at its worst in the am when I wake up and pretty much never feels 100% even after NSAIDs. After doing extensive research I believed it to be piriformis syndrome and I did several stretches for it daily and while it helped a bit it has not fixed the problem. After doing more research I believe it to be a herniated disk and have tried to do stretches for that, but it doesnt seem to help. The pain seems to be the worst if I lay flat on my back and roll my hips towards the ceiling.
Avatar f tn Google stretches for SPD!! I had the same issue and you can find some good info online...I ended up going to physical therapy it has done wonders! See if your ins will cover it and your see if your doc will send you!
Avatar m tn I am a married man, and I want to know if this is something worth going to the doctor for. I was in NY to visit some friends and visited a strip club on that day. I received a couple of lab dances by different girls while there. Then, before I left, I received a private session with on of the dancers. She unzipped my pants and starting touching my penis with her hands, then she undressed my shirt and covered my penis with it while still trying to make me ejaculate.
Avatar f tn Soo on my way to work i stopped and got a supreme pizza from pizza hut just for my self....i would in a fitness center at an Arts conservatory.. lol i feel so bad bc they are dancers and est and ill eat right in front of them.....
Avatar m tn I also rubbed her clit with my scrapped hand and she was very wet and now i am very worried about std. What are my risk factors for possible std. Would they be low one in 1000, one in 100 particularly for hiv?
Avatar f tn I go on walks everyday, do squats, an I do stretches like I'll lean to one side and hold it for about 40secs then do the other side.
