#transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation

[impressive-imperfection]

It’s been great having a name for the pain I’ve had my entire life…naming means I can step back from the life-draining-medical- cycle of:

Experience pain ➡️ see my GP ➡️ bloodwork ➡️ Normal results ➡️ refer to specialist ➡️ more bloodwork & expensive tests ➡️ normal or inconclusive results ➡️ Specialist, “Don’t know, sorry.” ➡️ Me: weeks wasted, still in pain, & now with a bunch bills 💸 ➡️ pain moves ➡️ cycle repeats 🔄

I’d apologize for being dramatic, but chronic pain without a cure is a drama. For example, I’m currently in a flare cycle where intense fatigue and lower back pain are center stage, with hand and joint pain swaying in the chorus. Meanwhile neck, upper back, and shoulder pain are in the pit conducting the play and inciting headache & migraine to swoop in like The Phantoms of My Fibro, to stop the show and knock me on my ass.

Anyway, I’m looking for non-medication pain management options that I can use with my meds. I’ve been seeing info on TENS machines for fibromyalgia. Has anyone used one before? How did it work for you?

Exploring the Efficacy of Homeopathic TENS Treatment for Neck Pain - Swaran Homoeopathic

Neck pain is a common ailment that can significantly impact an individual's quality of life, leading to discomfort, restricted mobility, and reduced productivity. While conventional approaches to neck pain management have proven effective for many, an increasing number of individuals are turning to alternative therapies, including homeopathy, to find relief. One such alternative method gaining attention is the application of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) within a homeopathic framework. In this article, we delve into the efficacy of homeopathic TENS treatment for neck pain, focusing on the pioneering efforts of Swaran Homoeopathic.

Understanding Homeopathy: Homeopathy is a holistic healing system based on the principle of "like cures like." It involves using highly diluted substances derived from plants, minerals, or animals to stimulate the body's innate healing abilities. Homeopathic treatment aims to address the underlying causes of ailments while considering the individual's unique symptoms, constitution, and emotional well-being.

The Role of TENS: Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a technique that involves applying low-voltage electrical currents to specific areas of the body via electrode pads placed on the skin. TENS units are commonly used to relieve pain by stimulating the nerves and altering the perception of pain signals. TENS therapy is considered safe, non-invasive, and relatively free from side effects.

The Synergy of Homeopathy and TENS for Neck Pain: Swaran Homoeopathic is at the forefront of combining the principles of homeopathy with TENS therapy to provide a comprehensive approach to neck pain treatment. This innovative approach aims to enhance the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies by utilizing TENS to address both the physical and energetic aspects of pain management.

Swaran Homoeopathic's Approach: Swaran Homoeopathic carefully examines each case to determine the individual's unique symptoms, triggers, and patterns of neck pain. By considering the holistic makeup of the patient, including physical, emotional, and mental aspects, they create personalized treatment plans that integrate TENS therapy with homeopathic remedies tailored to the individual's needs.

The Benefits of Homeopathic TENS Treatment:

Targeted Pain Relief: TENS therapy provides localized relief by stimulating the nerves associated with the neck pain, offering immediate comfort.

Holistic Healing: Homeopathy looks beyond physical symptoms to consider other factors that may contribute to the condition, thus promoting comprehensive healing.

Non-Invasive: Homeopathic TENS treatment involves no invasive procedures, making it suitable for those who prefer non-surgical or non-pharmaceutical interventions.

Individualized Approach: Swaran Homoeopathic's personalized treatment plans acknowledge that every patient is unique, ensuring a tailored approach for each individual.

Conclusion: With its patient-centered approach and the integration of TENS therapy, Swaran Homoeopathic offers a promising alternative for those seeking relief from neck pain. While further research is necessary to establish the full scientific basis of homeopathic TENS treatment, the positive experiences reported by patients underline its potential as a viable option for managing neck pain. As always, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before embarking on any treatment regimen to ensure it aligns with individual needs and medical history.

I was going to make a TENS unit joke about how transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation isn't enough, I need to be tased, but the other day I accidentally got shocked by a wall outlet and frankly, I do not think I need to be tased anymore.

[s-u-f-j-a-n-s-t-e-v-e-n-s]

Part of the treatment here includes something called "transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation." TENS. I just call it "the zappers........!" Watch out for them zappers y'all.

(2024) TickleTober Day 9: Shock - I'm Helping

Fic Descript - Miles tries to use his electricity to help Pav's sore muscles, but when Pav starts giggling after each controlled shock, Miles puts his powers to a much more entertaining use.

TickleTober Masterpost

Miles might as well open up his own physiotherapy clinic at this point.

After a (completely accidental) discovery that his mildest shocks could be used like a weird TENS unit [that's Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation if you were curious], a mighty hoard of spider-people swarmed him after every training session, anomaly mission, or particularly awkward sleep to fix their aching muscles.

Pavitr was the most recent to join the patient base.

"I've heard great things Miles, hope you won't disappoint." Pav groaned as he lay on the coach, arms flopped over his face. "I don't what I did yesterday but my abs feel AWFUL."

"Too much flexing in the mirror?" Miles jabbed with a smirk before resting his fingers on Pavitr's stomach.

He elected to ignore the subtle jump his friend made when his fingers made contact, putting it down to nerves. Understandable, it wasn't every day you asked your best friend to use his knockout-level shocking ability to ease some muscle cramps.

But once the current started bubbling into Pavitr's core, something else started bubbling out of it.

"You ok?" Miles raised an eyebrow, attention still focused on controlling how much shock he was administering.

Pav gave a groan in response, which only worried Miles further. Maybe he had started too strong? Pav was one of the smaller spider-people, he should probably ease up.

As Miles reduced his shock level though, Pavitr seemed to struggle even more to contain himself. His arms had moved from comfortably propping his head up to covering his face - with one hand gripping the couch cushions like his life depended on it.

Miles was completely perplexed. "Pav? What's going on?" He asked, shifting his hands higher on the kid's torso as a last ditch attempt to see if a different muscle might be easier for Pav to work with.

Apparently that did it, though.

Pavitr gave a noise somewhere between a screech and TV static, before locking his hands around Miles' wrists and bursting into giggles.

"Okokokokahahay Mihihiles wahahait!" Pav begged, curling in on himself with his hair falling over his face.

Miles grinned, completely abandoning his idea from 30 seconds ago to give up and let Pav leave. "Ohhh...."

"Shuhuhut uhuhup!" Pav cackled. "I cahan't help ihihit!"

"This whole time, you were just too ticklish to handle it?" Miles laughed, moving his hands lower again onto Pavitr's abs.

"I am not!" Pav shrieked at the movement, before straightening himself up to prove his point.

"You sure?"

In a stroke of evil genius, Miles switched tactics. He gripped around Pav's hips and sent pulsing shocks at random intervals through the bone.

The poor spiderman didn't stand a chance. Pav launched himself as far into the couch cushions as possible (so about 10cm from his initial position) with a squeal, hips bucking with every shock.

"NONONO Miles please I cAHAHAN'T HAHAndle ihit wAHAIT!" Pavitr gasped, his face redder than his suit.

"But Pav..." Miles said, mock-sympathy tainting his innocent face. "I'm helping."

A wearable electrical nerve stimulation device can provide relief to people experiencing the persistent pain and fatigue linked to long COVID, a study co-led by UCLA and Baylor College of Medicine researchers suggests.

Long-COVID, a complex and lingering condition following COVID-19 recovery, affects approximately 1 in 13 adults in the U.S. Symptoms such as widespread pain, fatigue, and muscle weakness often continue to disrupt daily activities, including walking and basic tasks.

The study, published in the peer-reviewed Scientific Reports, focused on a wearable Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) device, which uses low-voltage electrical currents to reduce pain, fatigue, and mobility issues associated with long-COVID.

The project was co-led by Dr. Bijan Najafi, research director of the Center for Advanced Surgical & Interventional Technology at UCLA Health and co-director of NSF IUCRC Center to Stream HealthCare in Place (C2SHIP), who said the device could have wider applications.

"While this study focused on managing pain and fatigue caused by long COVID, it may also have potential applications for addressing similar symptoms in individuals with other respiratory diseases, those who have experienced extended ICU stays and developed post-hospitalization weaknesses, and conditions involving chronic fatigue and pain, such as fibromyalgia or chemotherapy-related side effects," Najafi said. "But further studies are needed to confirm these potential uses."

In the study, 25 participants with chronic musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and gait difficulties were assigned either a high-dose (active) TENS device or a low-dose (placebo) device. Both groups used the TENS device for three to five hours daily over a four-week period.

Researchers measured participants' pain levels, fatigue, and walking performance before and after the therapy period. Findings indicated that the high-dose TENS group experienced notable improvements in pain relief (26.1% more relief compared to placebo) and walking ability (8% during fast walking), suggesting that wearable TENS therapy may help reduce long-COVID's impact on daily life.

The high-dose TENS group also reported a slightly higher perceived benefit (71.2%) compared to the low-dose group (61.4%), underscoring the potential of wearable TENS technology to support long-COVID recovery.

One factor in the study's success was likely the high rate of daily device usage, Najafi said. The wearable nature of the TENS device allowed participants to use it seamlessly throughout the day, without disrupting their routines.

"This wearable TENS system offered immediate, on-demand relief from pain and fatigue, making it easy to integrate into daily activities," Najafi said.

He also cautioned that more research is needed. "This study provides some hope for finding an effective, non-invasive solution for managing lingering COVID-19 symptoms that continue to affect millions," he said. "But our sample size was limited, so further research is needed to confirm these findings."

Study co-authors are Alejandro Zulbaran-Rojas, Rasha Bara, Myeounggon Lee, Miguel Bargas-Ochoa, Tina Phan, Manuel Pacheco, Areli Flores Camargo, Syed Murtaza Kazmi, Mohammad Dehghan Rouzi, Dipaben Modi, and Fidaa Shaib of Baylor College of Medicine.

Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of it, causing symptoms like pelvic pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, pain during sex, and infertility. Treatment for endometriosis depends on the severity of the symptoms, your overall health, and whether you want to have children in the future. Here are the main approaches that can help manage endometriosis:

1. Pain Management

• NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs): Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or naproxen can help reduce pain and inflammation associated with endometriosis.

• Prescription Pain Medications: For more severe pain, doctors might prescribe stronger painkillers or opioids for short-term use.

• Heat Therapy: Applying a heating pad or warm compress to the abdomen can help relieve pain and muscle spasms.

• TENS Therapy: A transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) unit, which delivers electrical impulses to the skin, can sometimes help with pain relief.

2. Hormonal Treatments

Hormonal therapies are often used to reduce or eliminate menstruation, as periods can worsen endometriosis symptoms.

• Birth Control Pills: Combined oral contraceptives (the pill) can help regulate periods and reduce pain by suppressing ovulation.

• Progestin-only Treatments: Progestin injections, implants, or intrauterine devices (IUDs) can help control the growth of endometrial tissue.

• GnRH Agonists: These drugs, such as Lupron or Zoladex, work by shutting down ovarian hormone production and inducing a temporary menopausal state, which can help shrink endometrial tissue and reduce pain. However, they often have significant side effects, including hot flashes and bone thinning.

• Danazol: This synthetic male hormone can reduce estrogen levels and shrink endometrial tissue, but it has side effects like acne and weight gain.

• Aromatase Inhibitors: These medications decrease estrogen production and can be used in combination with other treatments.

3. Surgical Treatment

Surgery can be considered for women with severe symptoms or if other treatments haven’t worked.

• Laparoscopy: This minimally invasive procedure allows the surgeon to remove or destroy endometrial tissue. It’s commonly used to treat endometriosis when other treatments aren’t effective.

• Hysterectomy: In cases where endometriosis is severe and other treatments have not worked, a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) may be considered, sometimes with removal of ovaries. However, this is typically only recommended for women who no longer wish to have children.

• Excision or Ablation: Surgeons may remove endometriotic lesions or use laser or heat to destroy the tissue.

4. Lifestyle and Complementary Therapies

• Diet: Some studies suggest that a diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods (such as omega-3 fatty acids from fish or flaxseeds, and antioxidants from fruits and vegetables) may help alleviate some symptoms. Reducing intake of red meat, trans fats, and processed foods may also be beneficial.

• Exercise: Regular physical activity can improve overall well-being, reduce inflammation, and potentially help manage pain.

• Acupuncture: Some women report pain relief and improved symptoms with acupuncture, although more research is needed to fully support its effectiveness.

• Stress Reduction: Practices like yoga, mindfulness, or meditation can help manage stress and may contribute to pain relief.

• Supplements: Some people find that omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, curcumin (from turmeric), and magnesium help reduce pain and inflammation, though it’s important to talk to a healthcare provider before starting any supplements.

5. Fertility Treatments

If endometriosis is affecting fertility, treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be recommended. Fertility-preserving options like egg freezing may also be considered for women who want to preserve their fertility before pursuing aggressive treatments.

6. Alternative Therapies

• Herbal Remedies: Some women explore herbal treatments like chamomile, ginger, or vitex (chaste tree), which are believed to help with menstrual regulation and pain. However, their efficacy is not well-established, and some herbs can interact with other medications.

• CBD Oil: Some women report relief from pain with CBD oil, though more research is needed.

7. Support and Counseling

• Support Groups: Connecting with others who have endometriosis can provide emotional support and practical advice on managing symptoms.

• Counseling or Therapy: Chronic pain conditions like endometriosis can lead to mental health struggles, such as anxiety or depression. Therapy or counseling can help you cope with the emotional impact of the condition.

Managing Endometriosis in Daily Life

• Track Your Symptoms: Keeping a symptom diary can help you and your doctor understand your condition better and tailor treatments accordingly.

• Work-Life Balance: It can be challenging to manage work, school, or social activities when you’re in pain. Finding accommodations at work or school and giving yourself permission to rest is essential for managing the condition.

• Educate Yourself: Knowledge is empowering. Understanding your condition and the available treatment options can help you make informed decisions about your health.

Consultation with a Healthcare Provider

Since endometriosis varies widely in its severity and impact on different individuals, it’s important to work closely with a healthcare provider to find the most appropriate treatment for your specific case. In some instances, a specialist in gynecology or reproductive health may be necessary for optimal care.

Back at Delaney’s obnoxious house, just after Lavender hung up on him, he finally released Erick from the cross, even catching him as he failed to keep standing.

“Giving up already~?” he said, “I’m not even done with you yet~”

“D-don’t…”

“Hush~”

He pulled his arm over his shoulder to support him, walking him over to the large bed on the other side of the room and sitting him down on the edge. Erick pulled away from him as soon as he let go, but Delaney caught his collar and pulled him back.

“I said I wasn’t done,” he said.

“Then…n-neither am I,” Erick said, finding his voice back somewhat.

He felt sore all over, especially his legs and shoulders, but he couldn’t give up. Delaney just smirked, pushing him to lie down before changing his grip from his collar to his throat and squeezing.

“You know, I was going to suggest taking a nap, but if you’re going to be such a fucking tease…”

Erick tried to pull his hand off, gasping for air. When that didn’t work he tried kicking, but he didn’t have the strength in his legs. Just when he thought he was beginning to feel dizzy, Delaney finally let go. But while he was distracted with catching his breath, Delaney went and cuffed his wrists together, a length of chain attached to a ring on the headboard keeping his hands trapped above his head.

“Cough! They’ll fucking kill you…” the teen groaned.

“That’s just a risk I’ll have to take,” Delaney said, pulling some kind of suitcase from underneath the bed and opening it.

Erick only just couldn’t see its contents, but spotted Delaney pulling out a cable and plugging it into an outlet on the wall.

“What is that?” he asked.

“A TENS unit.” Delaney said, smirking as the teen seemed confused, “Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation,” he elaborated, “I put it together myself, since the store-bought kind just doesn’t have the right oomph.”

“What does it do?” Erick asked warily.

“Depending on the setting it can help relax sore muscles, stimulate blood flow, provide pleasure if you’re into it, or intense pain when you get into the higher range.”

He pulled out a set of sticky patches, attached to the machine with thin wires, which he had to detangle a bit. Erick pulled on his wrist cuffs a bit, not liking where this was going at all. Delaney chuckled.

“Calm down, you had your punishment,” he said, pulling one of the patches free from the rest and approaching him again.

“Don’t fucking touch— No!”

His struggles were pointless and limited, and Delaney easily pasted some patches on the inside and outsides of his thighs, thankfully avoiding the sore welts. Then he ignored his protests and unbuttoned his shirt to paste two on his stomach, and lastly he invaded his sleeves to paste some on his shoulders and upper arms.

“Now, I’ll start with a continuous flow on a low setting. It might tickle a bit first, but then we’ll play around to find a setting you like, okay?”

“I don’t want—”

Click

The machine hummed to life and Erick gasped, more in shock than from the actual result, as he didn’t really feel much at all. A slight tickle radiating from the patches through his body. Delaney chuckled at his expression.

“See? It’s not so bad,” he said, before turning a dial.

Erick hissed a bit, actually feeling his muscles begin to relax. As if he’d stepped into a warm bath.

“Electricity is amazing, isn’t it?” Delaney said, “we rely on it, we run on it. You decide you want to move your arms, so your brain sends an electric signal through your nervous system, causing your muscles to contract in just the right spot. It’s an amazing system, but it’s so easy to hijack.”

He turned the dial again, sending a sudden, stronger pulse through the pads, causing the teen’s muscles to contract all of a sudden, before relaxing again.

“Ah— F-fuck…”

“Hmm such a lovely sound~” Delaney said, flipping a switch so the unit would periodically send another pulse at regular intervals.

Erick blushed, he wasn’t even quite sure what sound he made, but if Delaney liked it so much he didn’t want to do it again—

“Hgnn!”

“No need to hold back for my sake, let it all out,” Delaney said, sitting down on the bed next to him.

“No!” Erick snapped.

But Delaney just shushed him, getting closer as he stroked his cheek. Erick tried to turn his head away, he couldn’t even tense up properly. Delaney knew another pulse was coming, so he pulled on his collar with one hand, while yanking his head back by his hair with the other just as it hit. Erick moaned in surprise, eliciting another amused chuckle.

“Addicting, isn’t it?” Delaney said, “I could do this for hours, but I really need my beauty sleep.”

“T-turn it off…” Erick pleaded, his cheeks blushing red, embarrassed by his own responses.

“If you’ll let me have a little taste,” Delaney said.

He couldn’t resist it anymore. He’d worked hard for this, took many risks and a lot of attitude, and even with the reward literally in his reach, he still had to refrain. First of all, he was exhausted from staying up all night and felt like he would pass out if he pushed himself too much now. But a little taste would be okay. It was not like the teen could do much to stop him anyway.

He pulled on the collar again, waiting a second for the next pulse to distract the boy before kissing him. Erick tried to turn his head away, but when that didn’t stop him he instead found the first thing that caught his teeth and bit down. Hard.

“Argh!”

Delaney growled in pain, tearing his lip just to be able to pull away. He tasted blood, reaching up to feel a decent cut on his bottom lip. He glared down at the teen, who just stared back with a defiant look before spitting out some blood, smudging his cheek.

“Should’ve specified what kind of taste you wanted,” he said.

“Maybe I should’ve used a cane instead of a crop,” Delaney replied, pulling a handkerchief from his pocket to dab at his lip while getting up.

“Hgnn…you hit like a wimp anyway.”

Delaney didn’t grant him a response. Instead, he just turned a dial on his unit, before flipping another switch.

“AAAH!”

Erick jolted, crying out in pain as a much stronger current suddenly ran through the pads. Delaney waited for him to stop screaming as he began running out of breath, before switching the whole unit off. It took a good couple of seconds before Erick was able to breathe in again. It didn’t help to cough after breathing in some saliva, either.

“Keep breathing,” Delaney advised, beginning to pull the patches off of his skin, “I’ll give you a choice. Either you apologise and you can rest in my guest room, or you keep acting up and you’re never seeing the outside of this room again.”

He put the pads aside and pulled on the collar again to make sure he had the teen’s attention.

“What’s it gonna be?”

Erick unsuccessfully tried to cover a sob with a cough, struggling to form a coherent sentence, or any word for that matter.

“S-s-sor…s-sor—”

“Hm, shame,” Delaney said, “you would’ve looked great in the stockade, but a promise is a promise.”

He let go of the collar, reaching up to uncuff his wrists before trying to get the dazed teen to his feet. Again with an arm around his shoulders, and his arm around the teen’s waist, he escorted him back to the guest room, letting him lie down on the bed while reminding him about the lock.

Erick wisely kept quiet, or he was still too stunned to think. Either way Delaney left him alone, locking the door behind him. He got some ice for his lip, and a drink to calm down, before heading to his own bedroom, applying some extra moisturising cream under his eyes before passing out for a good, long nap.

Meanwhile Lavender had just gotten out of the shower, rubbing her hair dry with a towel while going through the bedrooms until she found Fetch’s things, borrowing another shirt from him. She never brought any luggage when they started this whole thing after all.

She dropped the towel on the floor and headed downstairs, finding Fetch sipping a fresh cup of coffee. He’d managed to clean up almost all of the blood in the kitchen, leaving only a stain on the table as it seemed to have soaked into the wood a bit. Nothing a fresh layer of paint wouldn’t fix, but it shouldn’t be their problem.

“How’s the kid?” she asked.

“Tired, but he’ll live,” Fetch said, “you wanna see the picture now?”

“Yeah, show me.”

He handed her his phone, the picture already loaded on the screen. It was a bit shocking how real it looked. From the wound to the patterns in the blood and the little details like leaving the knife in the frame, the blood on her own arm as if she’d tried to save herself. She shuddered again, but she wasn’t even sure why.

“You okay?” Fetch asked.

Fuck. He noticed this time.

“I’m good,” Lavender said, handing his phone back, “so now I call Delaney?”

“Actually I need your help with something first,” Fetch said.

“Wow you can’t do anything without me, can you?” Lavender said with a smirk.

“I can do it without you, but with you it’s just easier,” Fetch said, “the contact I mentioned…we didn’t exactly part our ways in a friendly manner, but hearing your side of the story might persuade them.”

“My side?” Lavender asked.

“You’re the one who wants Keller dead,” Fetch said.

“You’re no fan of him either!”

“Listen,” Fetch said, “she takes things personally. And your beef with Keller is more personal than mine.”

“She?” Lavender asked, raising a brow, “What’d you do? Write her some poetry? Didn’t call her back after spending the night?”

“It’s a long story,” Fetch said, “now stop wasting time. The sooner we find Erick, the better.”

“Right,” Lavender said, deciding to focus, “go on, call her. Put her on speaker. I’ll talk some sense into her.”

Fetch nodded, opening his phone for the right number and hitting dial, putting the phone on speaker and laying it on the table. Lavender sat on the edge of the table next to him, watching the loading wheel spin as the call was connecting. Finally, the line stopped beeping as someone picked up.

“I thought I told you to delete my number?” a deep, female voice answered, not sounding too pleased.

Lavender threw Fetch a look, wondering what he’d done wrong, but he ignored her.

“I wouldn’t bother you if I didn’t really need your help for something,” Fetch said.

“If you’re going to ask me to put a hit on Peter or any of his associates, I’ll assassinate you instead,” the woman replied.

“Jesus, Fetch, what did you do to her?” Lavender asked.

“Who else is there?” the woman asked.

“The woman I need you to help,” Fetch said, “her name is Lavender Rhodes. Rhodes, you’re talking to Keira Thorne.”

“So you’re not calling for yourself?” Thorne asked.

“Yes and no,” Fetch said, “it’s a long story.”

“I got time,” Thorne said.

“The short version is I made him back out of a job and now the guy is pissed and bothering us both,” Lavender said, “kidnapped his kid.”

“You have children?” Thorne asked curiously.

“She means Erick James,” Fetch elaborated, “the kid Allard tried to sell?”

“I thought you killed him,” Thorne said.

“No, I just burned a corpse and left enough of his blood around the scene for the police to get tunnel vision.” Fetch explained, “He’s very much alive.”

“For now.” Lavender chimed in, “Listen, Thorne, I dunno what your beef is with Fetcher, but this isn’t about him. This is about a pervert who’s been kidnapping, abusing and killing kids for years. We’ve got a chance to off him, but we need an extra person to make sure the odds are in our favour. Fetcher recommended you.”

“What’s his name?” Thorne asked.

“Mateo Keller,” Fetch and Lavender replied in unison.

“I heard that name before,” Thorne said, “he spreads…questionable pictures, no?”

“Yup, that’s him,” Lavender said, “we’ll meet up with him and a partner of his soon. We want to kill Mateo and use the partner to find out where the kid is.”

Thorne was quiet for a moment. Fetch even checked to make sure the call hadn’t disconnected when she spoke up again, having made her decision.

“Text me the time and place. I’ll bring my long-range,” she said, “oh, and bring cash.”

Beeeeep…

Fetch ended the call, seeming relieved as he pocketed his phone.

“She’s on board,” he said.

“She said bring cash,” Lavender pointed out, “do we have much cash?”

“I can give her some, then we offer her a third of Virgil’s ransom,” Fetch said.

“You mean half of your share,” Lavender said, “I’m not the one who got beef with her.”

“You started this whole thing!” Fetch said, “You know what? We’ll argue about this later. You can call Delaney now.”

“Fiiine, what do I tell him?”

“That you want to meet up, you’ll text him the time and address, yada yada yada— We’ll figure out the actual schedule later.”

“Got it. Now you shut up, it’s probably better if he thinks I’m acting alone.”

“You could ask nicely—”

“Shut.”

Physiotherapy in AS Rao Nagar

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of physical impairments, disabilities, and pain. It aims to restore movement and function in individuals affected by injury, illness, or disability. Physiotherapists use a variety of techniques to help patients recover, improve their physical abilities, and enhance their quality of life.

Physiotherapy can include:

Exercises

Massages

Treatments based on physical stimuli, such as heat, cold, electrical currents, or ultrasound

Assistive devices

Patient education and training 

Physiotherapists usually recommend movement and exercise to help improve your mobility and function. This may include:

exercises designed to improve movement and strength in a specific part of the body – these usually need to be repeated regularly for a set length of time

activities that involve moving your whole body, such as walking or swimming – these can help if you're recovering from an operation or injury that affects your mobility

exercises carried out in warm, shallow water (hydrotherapy or aquatic therapy) – the water can help relax and support the muscles and joints, while providing resistance to help you gradually get stronger

advice and exercises to help you increase or maintain your physical activity – advice will be given on the importance of keeping active, and how to do this in a safe, effective way

advice on using mobility aids – such as crutches or a walking stick to help you move around

Your physiotherapist may also recommend exercises that you can continue doing to help you manage pain in the long term or reduce your risk of injuring yourself again.

Types of Therapy in Physiotherapy:

Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to manipulate muscles and joints, aiming to relieve pain and improve mobility.

Exercise Therapy: Customized exercise programs designed to strengthen muscles, enhance flexibility, and promote overall physical fitness.

Electrotherapy: Use of electrical modalities, such as TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and ultrasound, to manage pain and stimulate healing.

Heat and Cold Therapy: Application of heat or cold to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

Advanced high-power laser therapy: It is a medical treatment that uses focused light energy to promote healing and relieve pain.

Dry Needling: Involves inserting thin needles into trigger points in muscles to relieve pain and tension.

Thank you so so so much for the advice on how to deal with fibro!!! I really appreciate it!!! I am going to try out as much of that as I can asap. Um last question, if that's okay, should I be worried about any of the things you listed interacting badly?? Ik there can be outside stuff but just from that list?

Good question! I didn’t even think about that but I should’ve included it.

Okay so Benadryl and Kratom together could make you more tired. I’ve found one post just now that suggested it may even be fatal (I have no idea the doses of each they were taking but they had a serious drug problem, and as people take insane amounts of Kratom and Benadryl to get off other drugs I’m betting it was a lot of both. Also I can’t verify whether this post was genuine or not). I’ve personally taken benedryl and Kratom many many times and been fine, but I have a very high tolerance for Benadryl due to allergies (and now using it to numb my stomach) and I am very used to my level of Kratom. So mix at your own risk.

Don’t use arnicare or tigers balm or lidocaine patches with the TENS machine. You don’t want to numb an area and then electrocute it. Also you need the area your placing the electrodes on to be dry, tigers balm leaves a greasy gel film over the skin for a long while. Here is a site about the dos and don’t of TENS machines: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/transcutaneous-electrical-nerve-stimulation-tens/

Don’t use a heating pad on an area you have numbed. Though I suggest a cloth heating pad filled with rice or whatever and different herbs that you microwave to get warm, both that and an electric heating pad can cause burns, even if you can’t feel them right away. If you’re numb then the chances of being burned are greater. Make sure to check your skin at least every fifteen minutes and consider disuse after 10-30 min. Using the heating pad for longer (30 min) tends to help more with chronic pain.

Green tea mixed with a stimulate dose of Kratom can have adverse effects. Both stimulate you which can lead to heart palpitations, excessive sweating, restlessness, paranoia, sense of doom. You would have to drink a lot of caffeine (green tea) to have this effect with the small stimulate dose of Kratom. Make sure you know how green tea and the stimulate dose of Kratom will affect you and mix in small doses and at your own risk. Personally I have never had any adverse side effects even after several cups of green tea and then adding Kratom (helps with fatigue quite a bit actually). Just know your body and take it slow.

Don’t mix arnicare, tigers balm, and lidocaine. I’ve never done it but I know mixing topical gels can irritate the skin.

Cannabis and Kratom can interact by increasing the sedating effects and a ‘high’ feeling. I wouldn’t suggest edibles and Kratom unless you really know how it affects you and start at low doses of each. Kratom in high doses (higher than pain relief dose) can cause a high feeling. Mixing with Cannabis can be crazy. Personally I do this because my fibro is out of control. Just used it (edibles and Kratom) an hour ago to kill the flare up that happened due to the eclipse (idk why I’m guessing it has something to do with sundowning and my body being confused. How are you doing btw? Did you flare up too?) ALSO edibles can cause you to trip. Like an acid trip. I did not know this until my QPR partner experienced it first hand (he did take 200mg second time ever doing edibles, (and the first ones were weak)and fourth time ever using cannabis products, before had been flower and he was fine. So perhaps the dose played a part).

Benadryl and cannabis products can increase the drowsy effect of both products. Unless you’re one of the unlucky ones where cannabis causes paranoia, and the Benadryl does the weird thing where it stimulates you instead of puts you to sleep (rare but happens, very annoying happened to me last night and caused horrible restless legs) (btw Benadryl can cause restless legs), then the paranoia will be much worse.

Don’t exercise with a lidocaine patch on or while you’re still feeling the effects of it. You could easily injure yourself.

I don’t know if various mushrooms interact with Kratom, Benadryl, cannabis or even green tea. I bet it’s a case by case basis. Make sure to do your research before combining.

All that said this is only the advice from a dude on the internet who also deals with chronic pain. My experiences may not hold true for you. Make sure to do your research before combining or using any of the things I have suggested. I can only do my best in trying to warn you of things, but I may very well have missed something. If you want to talk more you can send another ask or say hi in my dms. Always ready to give another spoonie advice or an ear to listen.
