No Gaile! Small moves, ice or heating pad! Sometimes a stiff drink!π
When our family needed the help, we 3 kids stepped in doing everything for them, including paying for help. Now when Dan and I need the help, his daughter and her family-within walking distance, tells me to do it and get off her property. She secretly signed our deed before it got registered. But no phone calls, tax payments, birthday or Christmas cards or visits in the hospital! I took care of his parents and when his mom was in hospice I said to live with us. No, because the family hates you! Even after living with us for 5 years FREE!π€¬ with 3 kids a German Sheppard and cats. They did not even pay my bill at the hospital when their dog bit me! Some kids can be a blessing others a sin!
Yoga with attention to breathing is my first line of defense. sometimes I am only able t.o lay on the floor with my feet on a chair. Daily activities keep my joints working. Swimming is mostly daily.
I also take a preventative approach by doing chair exercises 2-3 times a week at my local senior center.
A flare Up rates rather high on the scale of exigency, it's ok. Push your way in to seeing your kind and caring dermatologist... right awayβ
