I've reached the "stretch and limber up before taking a dump" stage of my life.

i have to do some stretches every time i ride my big motorcycle or my left hip will do this occasional thing where it feels like it's gonna pop out of the socket and i get this incredible pain and when you're trying to pilot a motorcycle in heavy traffic with your left leg sticking straight out things get real sketchy real fast

reasonable points. covid did have programs where seniors alone got more money for their increase in living expenses, maybe it could have been folded in there. no easy solution to it tho

otoh it would be nice not having seniors plow into buildings and farmers markets, etc, or indirectly causing traffic accidents otherwise

waiting for my gp to call me so i can tell her all about my new hand pain and i guess she'll probably just prescribe me more physio

idk we'll see, i want to be screened for rheumatoid arthritis just to make sure i don't have that, if it's tendonitis/carpal tunnel/etc then best i can do is physio :\

i have osteoarthritis in my knees so hopefully that isn't what's up with my thumbs

do you clench or grind your teeth? i had a bite guard that needed an adjustment since a bunch of work shifted my bite, so i was getting weird sensitivity

whitenings also gave me a ton of sensitivity when i was younger. just terrible discomfort for days. now i use a fluoride paste and some biomin stuff that basically matches the good sensodyne they dont sell in the states

the sensitivity is from exposed dentine (sp) from a little bit of recessed gum and perhaps over brushing in one point. i don’t clench much. i’ve always hated my teeth tho i never smile and very self conscious of it. somehow still had a sex so can’t be too bad

i’m told by a dental hygienist you can just rub a little bit of sensodyne on the affected area before you go to bed every few days and it helps. haven’t had to do it yet myself but seems like a neat trick.

can confirm it works, as well as swishing the toothpaste after and not rinsing so it settles in more

stretch your legs like hamstrings back of the legs etc. even if it's just a lazy stretch it helps me

word, thanks. that mostly worked in the past for me; I also had a buddy in grad school that had really tight hamstrings that messed up his back at night. I made the mistake of looking on the internet though so now I'm all worried that I have some weird spine arthritis or something

the plan for now is basically toe touches and to continue my weight loss and see where I am in a month. the past few nights have been rough though

the thing that helps my back pain is to put my legs up the wall with my back on the floor and just hold it for a few minutes, like this except butt against the wall and no pillow



i have trouble sliding my butt against the wall so i do it beside a doorway so i can just roll into position

edit: when i first started i couldn't even straighten my legs but i'd just go as much as i could, but now i can straighten them and it feels really good
