drink a hot cup of Chamomile Tea with honey in the evenings. This will help you relax and be more comfortable. You can also drink this throughout the day.
Take a hot bath with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts. Soak for 30 minutes. The Epsom salts will help eliminate the lactic acid that forms on the muscles from over exertion.
Massage an analgesic cream into the sore muscles.
500mg of calcium and magnesium, taken twice daily, can help with diminishing the pain.

Anything that's "extreme" within the anguish division demands to receive concentration by way of a general practitioner. If you're having issues status and this has been happening, you must get into see a document on the Emergency Room, a common medical professional, or an pressing care document TODAY. Start making cellphone calls.
