She can't get a wink of sleep. She’s only 45. She describes it as this sharp, stabbing sensation in the joint. This whole thing kicked off just two days ago—she woke up one morning and the pain was just there. I'm starting to get really worried about this, so if anyone has any insight, please reach out ASAP 😢 ..... She tried taking some over-the-counter painkillers, but they didn't do much of anything. Seriously, if anyone has advice, please let me know 🙂
My suggestion might sound a little out there, but it could actually be a huge help for your mom. It’s just another one of those things where you have nothing to lose—no side effects to worry about, and honestly, the whole process is over before you know it...
Give Mom a massage—but keep it gentle at first, almost like you’re kneading dough, then gradually work in a bit more strength... Start with her left thigh (working toward the opposite leg), and then move down behind the knee. You want to be incredibly light around the knee itself, just enough to help that tension finally let go. After that, move on to the left foot, focusing the massage on the sole, specifically working around the area near the pinky toe...
Just a heads-up, though... you won't actually see the real reaction until about two days after you apply it.
