anyone got an easy cure or home remedy for sore muscles?.my right calf and thigh muscles hurts and i can barely walk



i'm not sure what i did to cause the soreness,i just want to get rid of it!

Hot bath and epsom salts. At the very least soaking in the hot bath. And an aleve or aspirin. You don't have anything like Icy/Hot handy? Or horse liniment? Love that stuff.

Eat some bananas. The potassium helps too.

i tried putting Ben Gay on it lastnight.didn't help one bit

lay in a nice hot bath.....a good massage on those muscles.....a little aspirin......rest em up!

Maybe warm bath and massage! And some ibuprofen for the pain.

i'll try it once i don't feel like sitting here any longer



i've been having to massage my calf for a few minutes before i stand up just so i can stand up

The bath....massage....and walking....your muscles are tight and need to be loosened up....believe it or not...exercise DOES help.

can't a person over-do it though?

You already have if you are in pain....take the bath with the salts....massage a little and just walk around your house....if you sit....they will get stiff....move it...move it!.....lol

if you can`t think of why it`s so sore..maybe it`s something else..

I just recently purchased a little gadget called DR. HO it sends electronic pulses into the infected area...suppose to help in healing by bringin new blood to the injured muscles...

my calf muscle is also sore..( hard time walking ) from a bout with arthritis in the knee..

only thing i can possibly think of is maybe a charlie horse




but those have always woken me up and i didn't feel the soreness til i slept as much as i needed to

You probably got caught staring at some woman's boobs and got beat up and don't remember. Lol.

Yes you can and take it easy the next couple of days.

i was asleep.....although i know i can do that in my sleep





hmmmm.....you might be on to something here

3 things...

Keep stretching it out to keep it loose...

Put some Icy Hot or Tiger Balm on it (much stronger than Bengay).....

Take Ib Profen to lower the inflamation.....



All these will just help ease the pain. You just have to give it time and let the muscle heal.

..ya might have gotten a charlie horse while you slept..i heard it might have to do with a calcium deficiency..drink a glass of milk..it does a body good...not to mention it comes from BOOBIES...mmmmm cow boobies...

oh hell,i forgot about Tiger Balm.i know i have some somewheres in the bathroom

Take a damp towel and heat it up in the microwave.

Wrap the warm towel around the area.

Stretch the leg muscles gently.

All the hot towels/ hot bath crap feels good but is working against you.

Switch it up with cold compresses/ice packs/frozen steel.

Extreme cold forces blood away from the surface and reduces swelling quickly. (This is why every pro cut man keeps a piece of steel in an ice bucket)

Hot towels are soothing but, the heat increases inflamation.

Take my word for it bro. I spent 22 years in my dads fighting school and have dealt with all sorts of crap.

Motrin is the best anti-inflammatory available over the counter.

excuse me - wild turkey and a hot tub, after the tub fall asleep wiht a couple ice packs on the worst of it- if u wake up - stretch a little and do a shot. Trust ME - I played varsity sports in college and ran long distance msot of my adult life
