Need advice for severe body cramps and spasms

👍 thank u

Hi and welcome to the app! When I'm experiencing severe cramps, I usually grab a heated blanket or heatable bean bag. The heat soothes my muscles and relaxes whatever hurts enough that I feel better. If that doesn't help, light exercise can help as well.

Nice to get ideas at least. With these autoimmune things, many treatments work across many conditions. I assume its because so many conditions cross symptoms. I think the root cause of many of my physical symptoms is because my lymphatic system is still flaring (breast cancer and the mastectomy). 3 years of occupational therapy. Myofascia release works great short term but $300/visit after insurance. She taught me "sliding cupping". Works much like massage but i can do myself. Silicone cups available online. She/i use the bell shape vs mushroom shaped ones. It even helped somewhat for my sciatica. It's a $15 experiment. And similar to heated blanket, maybe just a weighted blanket. I hate, but my sister loves hers. It's just another relatively cheap trial.
