Arche de Triomphe!

For the past couple of days my right shoulder, upper arm and associated neck muscles have ached. Crickey neck style achy. I reckon I must have slept for a period at a funny angle with my right arm stuck out of the duvet where it got cold.

Do not like.

Mobilise the joint as far as possible. Gentle exercise is they key to relieving the pain - healing the injury. Rotate the arm clockwise then counter clockwise. 3 sets of 15 rotations 3 times a day.

If the pain is deep within the joint try applying hot and cold compresses, and if causing discomfort take an analgesic, paracetamol, then Ibuprofin (added anti-inflamitoryness).

Next !

Dear Dr Fencingsculptor,

What can I do for what I think is a bad case of sputtering wurgles? My friends say I should have it cut off, but surely there is another way?

Yours in discomfort,

F. Urtle

Sputtering wurgles ? Hmmm
Firstly may I commend you for not being bashful about the present nature of your wurgles. Very brave of you, have a lollipop !

‘Sputtering’ Wurgles are the advanced form of ‘seeping’ wurgles. No one wants to be caught in the eye by sputtering wurgle ooze, so the first thing to do is cover the wurgle in a breathable gauze or bandage.

Take a broad-spectrum antibiotic and the ‘sputtering’ should cease within 24-48 hours.

Then apply an antiseptic to the wurgles and they should clear up in no time.

NEXT !

It's just muscular, warm up properly and then exercise - then learn to control your limbs while sleeping - tuh!

I quite agree.

I have suspected that the patient should be restrained for quite some time now.

This can often be attributed to your arm dangling over the side of the bed while you are unconscious/asleep.

The angle of the dangling appendage causes the muscular-skeletal structure to place excessive pressure on the nerves at either the elbow or the shoulder.

These are critical points where the nerve endings are channelled toward the spine and any numbing at these points will deny all sensation to the appendage from below this point.

The very moral tale to all this is that one really should dangle one’s appendages out of the bed.


There’s no excuse. DON’T DO IT !

NEXT !
