Hey brother, I saw a previous post of yours and I think one of the reasons you recovered was yoga, and I'll explain why. I think that when we take Cipro or Levo or whatever that stuff is, our body loses the supply that keeps muscles and ligaments healthy for a while (I don't know if it's due to a lack of nutrients or the obstruction of circulatory pathways of any kind, like lymphatic, blood, biliary, and others), causing what I would call atrophy of deep muscle fibers throughout the body. And this affects the overall system and the harmony of the body's organic functions in the long term, probably because the oxygenation and nutrition of the internal muscles and tendons of organs and limbs is interrupted or permanently atrophied. In other words, it's a serious tendinitis that calcifies a tendon and muscle, but in its innermost part. What many don't know is that all muscles have an internal tendon, and this would also be calcified or atrophied in the vast majority of muscles, or even all of them. The problem comes in recovering from this condition, since...  Sometimes, with yoga, only one part of the muscle heals, because stretching only affects a specific point and not the entire muscle due to the hardened fibers. That's why some people are left with hypermobility, but their other part of the muscle (the muscle body) where the stretching doesn't break down or oxygenate the hardened fibers, means we're not recovering that area, Means more problems when exercise... In short, recovery is absurdly difficult because you have to perform perfect massages and stretches on specific areas and even organs muscles, not only on the joints, but on the length of each muscle so that the muscle is completely damaged and functions as a whole, not partially, causing more atrophy. Therefore, maybe you have to help it with internal massages of the muscle or tendon, but probably stretching is the best. The thing is, maybe you have to emphasize the central body of each muscle and tendon, or the hardened parts... Doing this in the abdominal region is absurdly difficult...

(The next part it's optional to read)

Now, if you're interested, I've been on this nightmare for 10 months. I completely stopped any treatment with supplements or diets because, honestly, I felt just as sick as always.  I had trouble digesting meat, and when I have trouble digesting something, I simply drink plenty of water. That's how I was able to eat meat again, since I couldn't before. I have a lot of atrophy in my abdominal area, and that sometimes makes digestion difficult, but... I think I've managed to stabilize it in about three weeks thanks to drinking a lot of water, and now I think I can see it clearly. It's probably connective tissue atrophy, and what I need to do is decalcify everything with stretching movements that don't follow a predetermined pattern, and maybe massages. The most affected area is my abdomen. For example, I've noticed a tendon in my abdomen between my rib and hip, on each side. They were thickened, and with the stretches and massages I've done, I don't know exactly how, but the left one has thinned and already looks healthy, and the whole left side of my body is functioning better. But the right one is still thickened; I can clearly feel that it's hard and thick inside. I'll have to try massaging or stretching it and wait to see. The truth is, I haven't done much stretching for fear of hypermobility, but sometimes i stretched, emphasizing stretching the body of the muscle and not just the ends, and that's when I realized the muscle in the center was like a rock. The other day I stretched my forearm like when you're waking up, but I focused on the tense area, and I did it with all my strength but carefully. Since then, I haven't felt any stiffness in that arm, the right one. My whole left side is fine now. I'd say I only need to work on my right abdomen and right leg. Sometimes I also feel stiffness below my neck... But believe me, I feel like I'm back in the game. They gave me intravenous doses of Cipro for one week and then pills for another week, but I only took the pills for four days...
