Sometimes it is the worst case scenario - after 8 years of muscle pain, ocasional paresthesia and leg numbness, i found out i have MS....and last year i also started having gut issues. And yes, i do have lots of anxiety and depressive symptoms, but frankly how i wish my bodily symptoms were only anxiety related..... When it comes to physical activity: The stretching exercices only help if you have a fairly healthy spine. Otherwise, it can cause more pain in the stiff areas. I was doing 5 tibetans over the course of years and didn't realise i was hurting myself additionaly. My point is - sometimes the pains and spasm must be adressed by a proper medical professional who will, amongst other things prescribe the correct exercises for you. And maybe the most important thing - if the underlying issue of anxiety or depression or any kind of stress is not dealt with, all of the exercises and other techniques will at the end of the day be just a crutch, serving to patch things up temporarily.....

Anxiety can definitely cause symptoms like brain fog, forgetfulness, poor concentration, and even tingling sensations. But numbness in your leg while walking might also be related to circulation, nerve issues, or a vitamin deficiency. It’s always best to check with a doctor to rule out other possible causes. Hope you feel better soon! 🙏 If you’d like to discuss this further and find ways to manage it, you can book a free consultation here: calendly.com/betteryourlife/45min.
To reduce pain, it’s helpful to identify the underlying cause. Here are some general strategies that can be effective for managing pain: Rest and Relaxation: Ensure you get adequate rest and avoid activities that might exacerbate the pain. Heat and Cold Therapy: Apply a heating pad or ice pack to the affected area. Heat can help relax muscles, while cold can reduce inflammation. Over-the-Counter Pain Relief: Medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help manage pain. Always follow the dosage instructions. Gentle Stretching and Exercise: Engage in gentle stretching or low-impact exercises to improve flexibility and strength, which can help alleviate pain. Proper Posture: Ensure you maintain good posture, especially if you sit for long periods. Ergonomic adjustments can help. Hydration: Drink plenty of water, as dehydration can sometimes contribute to muscle cramps and pain. Massage: Gentle massage can help relieve muscle tension and pain. Stress Management: Practice stress-relief techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, or deep breathing exercises, as stress can exacerbate pain. Consult a Professional: If the pain persists or worsens, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment plan. If you have specific details about the type or location of the pain, I can offer more targeted advice. betteryourlife.co.uk/
