Drinking is one of the most important activities for a modern woman. A few drinks a day can be a huge problem, and even if the drinker is not aware of their problem, they may not know the extent of it. A simple but painful problem is joint pain, which is often a sign of a more serious injury.
In our study of around two hundred thousand people, we found that almost half of people report a problem with sore joints a few months after drinking. And the number of people reporting joint pain after drinking goes up as the drinker’s drinking continues.
In an email survey of around 1,000 people, we found that almost half of people have a problem with joint pain after drinking. The number starts to go up with every drink. If you’re a drinker, you might have already heard about the Painkiller for Joints study, which was started by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.
The Painkiller for Joints study was actually designed as a pilot project to test the effectiveness of a drug to help alleviate joint pain and stiffness. Researchers found that the drug, Naprosyn, helped reduce joint pain and stiffness in a group of people with joint pain who were already taking NSAID painkillers. Naprosyn is not approved as a drug for treating joint pain, but it is already on the market.
I know this is going to sound strange, but I’ve had a lot of joint trouble in the past few weeks. I’m on my second bottle of painkiller, and I’ve been on it for a few days. I’ve been on it for so long that I can’t remember when it started. But lately my joints have been aching. I actually get joint pains from lifting and moving.
The cause of joint pain is the body’s natural response to stress. In the case of a joint, it’s the same thing. In fact, the pain is usually worse when its moving. This is why if you take on extra weight after working out, your muscles will feel more stressed and your joints will hurt. This is why when you work out, your legs will feel sore and stiff. Im not sure if that is why I have joint pains, but it certainly is a possibility.
So what do you do about it? Well, it may not be simple, but it is easy to manage. The first step is to let it go. If you notice your joints are aching, stop and take a break. Take a walk, take a nap, do something relaxing. This will relieve your body of the stress and the pain will subside. It is probably also a good idea to use your joints as an excuse to eat a good meal.
As an alternative to taking a break and letting your body deal with the stress, you can try taking a restorative yoga class, or try a massage. If you have a friend that can do deep tissue work for you, or have a good masseuse, it may be worth your while to give it a try.
The fact that we can so easily relate to how we feel when we wake up, and we can relate to how we feel when we’re in pain is a sign that we’ve reached the point where our bodies are starting to respond in ways that aren’t just physical. This may be a good time to try stretching, yoga, tai chi, or other bodywork.
If we were to use the term “pain” in this context, would we say something like “I was in a car accident” or “I was in pain”? It’s much more appropriate to say something like “I was in pain after drinking” because we feel the pain.
