I deal with muscle pain by trying to relax and I rub muscle cream on it

DO you use any remedies when you are dealing with muscle pain?

Simple solution for me is Ibuprofen.

[melodylogan45]

I use heat and ice pack treatments, bengay, motrin, hot baths with epson salt and i take breaks for what
ever i am doing because i am limited due to my fibromyalgia pain and osteoarthritis.

ibuprofen,gabapentin(neurontin),flexeril,hot bath with epsom salts.and definitely my heating pad

I agree with hot baths, but I would never use anything chemical, inside or out.  I take homeopathic arnica tablets.  It helps repair the muscles, not just mask the pain.  It works for bruises too and there's a topical gel.  It's totally natural.

I use the icy hot gels

depends on the muscle pain - if it's from an exercise routine that your body is not used to - just a nice soak in a hot tub.  If it's from arthritis, sometimes just an "icy hot patch" on the affected area helps.

  most of the time for any muscle aches or pains I just put a bag of ice on what ever area of my body that is bothering me

I usually just put icy/cold compresses or massage it.

The only muscel pain I have is from playing sports and then I just sooth my pain with a perfessional massage!! Always works.

      A bubble bath in a tub works wonders. Also, warm water jets in affected area.

Try some biofreeze ot icy hot. And maybe some OTC meds like ibuprofin. A heating pad may work well too.
