| What Are The Top 4 Mistakes That Make Pain Worse? |
 admin writes, "Generalized muscle or nerve pain can also develop into a chronic condition. Chronic pain may originate with an initial trauma/injury or infection, or there may be an ongoing cause of pain. Some people suffer chronic pain in the absence of any past injury or evidence of body damage."

1. Avoiding exercise and activity to protect your muscles and joints. If you’re experiencing discomfort, the best way to fix achy joints is to “take it easy,” right? WRONG! In fact, physical activity stimulates repair while inactivity weakens muscles and decreases joint flexibility.
2. Believing you can tough it out, which is now proven to be incredibly dangerous = even deadly. When you don’t relieve pain your oxygen demands rocket as much as 400%, and when this happens your heart has to work harder. Result? Dizziness, trouble breathing, and even passing out. Not to mention, research reveals going too long with pain (days, weeks, sometimes years – it’s different for everyone) can make your pain permanent. You see, if you’re in pain too long, your body thinks it’s “normal”, and you actually become hard wired for pain meaning it won’t go away.
3. Assuming pain killers are safe and effective over the long run. Most prescription and over-the-counter pain relievers can have serious health consequences over time. In fact, new research reveals that long term use of ibuprofen may damage your joints, since its “shut down’ the natural healing process.
4. Believing you can’t beat pain naturally. Thousands of studies, clinical trials, and lab tests PROVE (beyond a shadow of doubt) that you can relieve your pain naturally. You see, your body has its own “natural healing system” and only responds to “natural stimuli – not drugs.
