Some people manage their pain by waking up early to take their medication, drink water, eat something, and do small activities that make them happy. Others use apps for self-care and mental health, and take supplements like magnesium and glucosamine for muscle and joint pain respectively. Some find relief in drinking ice cold water and taking short term painkillers like ibuprofen during flare ups. There are also those who use coping skills such as deep breathing, distraction techniques, and positive self-talk. Some individuals use cannabis for pain and biologic medications to slow the progression of their disease, along with warmth, salt baths, rest/use cycles for pained areas, and heated mattress pads. Resting when in pain is also emphasized, as well as listening to one's body. Physical therapy, stretching, and consistent exercise can also help manage pain. Some people also use a spinal cord stimulator, gabapentin, prednisone, Tylenol, ibuprofen, and ice packs. CBD, topicals, and holistic approaches are also used by some. Lastly, meditation, maintaining a positive attitude, and focusing on gratitude are also strategies used by some individuals to manage their pain.
