Some part of my body always hurts. Mostly back, intestines, and joints, but these feet of mine have been finding their footing in this game lately too. Life is pain ;(
It’s a combination of arthritis and ulcers in my case, but you’re spot on about poor diet playing its part with my ulcers. Learned that lesson a long time ago. And the again some time later. And then again after that. And then again last week, too. Such is life. Not sure what’s up with my back tho
Sorry to hear about your aches and pains, I get them too as I’ve been getting older, especially my knees. I have a spinal fusion and a few things have really helped to alleviate my chronic back pain.
Stretch every day. I pay special attention to my hamstrings, they get most of the stretching because it helps loosen lower back muscles too.
Try not to sit too much. A sit stand desk helps with that, but I also try to stand if I’m watching tv. It’s weird, but it works.
Go for walks. I don’t have to go anywhere, I just throw on an audiobook or music and walk for an hour or two around the neighborhood.
These keep my daily pain minimal, most days it’s so low pain, I can just ignore it and I’m fine.
Thank you for this sage advice, dude. Tried all three over the last couple days and am having a much better time over here. I was already stretching my back and shoulders etc most days, but the hamstring note was such an obvious connection that I just never put together on my own, and it’s already making a massive difference. Like, im still dealing with pain in the area, but compared to a few days ago, the difference is clear.
You’ve changed a strangers life for the better and it is appreciated greatly.
Fuck yes my dude! The hamstring connection isn’t the most obvious, but makes a lot of sense once you hear it. I spend 5 minutes on hamstring stretches alone and it helps keep a lot of my pain away. I could never touch my toes until I had 2 metal rods in my back! 🤣

Ya probably eating something you can’t tolerate. Been checked for coeliac disease? Affects joints, gut, skin, etc…

Gluten gives me so many ulcers, pisses me right off
