Stop lying.
I would take 4 Alleve and 2 arthritis strength Tylenol at the same time twice/day. The Tylenol you can take 4 times/day. The OTC dose of Alleve is not high enough level to provide much anti-inflammatory effect. 4 Alleve give you the same level of active ingredient as the prescription dose of that anti-inflammatory. I'm assuming that if you're doing squats that you don't have pre-existing kidney or liver disease. The Tylenol doen't have anti-inflammatory effect but Alleve and Tylenol work at different pain pathways giving an additive effect.. I took 4 Alleve and 2 extra strength Tylenol for an extended period of time before I had a joint replaced. IF you have any issues with inflammatory GI disease or ulcers don't do take the Alleve. A heating pad is a better option for your back than ice.
Drinking and Hydrocodone really work well. The Tylenol slows down the metabolism of the alcohol....or is the other way around. Oh well, they've shown that people who take Tylenol and then consume alcohol get a better buzz on. So I routinely do both. The Hydrocodone is reserved for special occasions like when my neck hurts so bad that alcohol alone won't do the trick.
I was dumb and lifted when my back was already feeling sore. Honestly I usually only lift upper body vanity muscles in a life long effort to only have useless muscles and stimulate my wife’s WAP. I never lift legs because I get so damn sore every time I try then again. Honestly think it’s just tweaked muscle but man does it suck picking up dog **** and getting out of bed
Thx. Will do. No tingling so far. But did cancel my doubles tennis tonight which sucks
I would bet if you did the 4 Alleve and 2 ES Tylenol tonight, you'll feel like playing tennis tomorrow. Do that with food. It's amazing how debilitating a muscle spasm in your back can be and how quickly it can go away. Put a heating pad under your back before you go to bed on LOW. Don't do 4 Alleve if you have a weak stomach and I would back off to 2 or 3 tomorrow probably. My brother in law is a cardiologist and he's the one who turned my on to the prescription level on Naproxen (Alleve). Alleve is 220 mg. Naproxen Rx is 550 mg. The bottle recommendation is one every 6-8 hours of Naproxen and that's where the 4 tabs of Alleve twice/day comes from.
yes. I get the extended release arthritis strength 500 mg caplets that will last for 8 hours. HyVee and WalMart normally carry it.
Back in the day, I used to like to use a leg press machine at the Y in Rochester MN when I lived there. That's a much preferable way to work your legs than doing squats. Your chance of injuring yourself is much less.
All right guy I met on the internet. Just got back from Walgreens and swallowed 4 alleve and 2 arthritis Tylenol with a snack. Got heating pad going. Hopefully I’m not blowing dudes for crack on the south side this time tomorrow
41, and about 10 shekels over weightNot sure how old the OP or some of the best of you are but one thing I have learned is that as we get older, it doesn't take very long for us to lose our strength and muscle tone. I was reading an article about some "older" guys who still loft, early 60's into late 70's and that was a common complaint. I don't lift much weight, whoops, am I not supposed to admit that? But I take care of my 90 year old father and I have watched him lose the strength in his legs, then get it back with therapy and keep repeating the cycle. You don't have to lift heavy weight and losing some helps as well.
rest but dont be totally sedentary. once things calm down after about 3 days start with daily bridges and planks as soon as you can stand the pain.
My M,D, wife just used to shake her head at me taking that much Alleve but it was her brother that I witnessed popping 2 Naproxen (1100mg) at once for a knee problem he was having. I wouldn't recommend doing it long term but I was taking 4 Alleve with Tylenol in the morning just to get through the day and then 2 or 3 at night with Tylenol so I could try to sleep and I did that for months. It's a wonder I have any liver or kidney function left at all. When that stopped working I had my hip replaced 12 years ago on my 50th birthday. Way too many high impact sports for too many years. I've got multiple other joints now that I've been told I need to have replaced. Most days I can get by without anything other than the Tylenol at night. I can't take Alleve anymore due to another health issue I have.
I used to carry to bags of Portland think they weighed 96 pounds with ease now 40 years later arthritis and to much lifting I struggle to carry a 40 pound bag of dog food
I got the vaccine and my bench press went up 25 pounds. Thinking of doing another cycle of the vaccine in a month and seeing the gains I make.
It’s called old age, now I hire someone to run my 40 and do the weight lifting
