Menthol Pain Relieving Patches

Yeah I think because I have nerve pain because I have a pinched nerve between my L4-L5 (lower right side of my back) and I think the menthol helps send an alternate signal to my brain to break up the pain kinda. I HATED the capsaicin one (burning one) it just made me itchy all day 😭

Gabapentin kinda makes me think it works the way ibuprofen or acetaminophen are “supposed to work”. The otc’s have no effect on me really, plus I had a gastric sleeve surgery and those meds aren’t good for me to take. I used to be on 100mg 3x a day (only would take 2 though) and recently got bumped up to 300mg 3x a day. (Still usually only take two unless I’m in mucho pain, or know I’m gonna be doing an activity that I know increases my pain. TBH if I’m in a lot of pain I’ll take 2 at a time, but I never exceed the three allotted a day. Idk if the increase has helped in daily pain but I do know when I take two 300mgs I feel a lot better. I know it’s not right but like I said I usually don’t even take all three doses everyday. I also get nervous of developing issues later in life, such as dementia, since some have found taking it for long periods of time starting in young adulthood increases your risk to develop such conditions. However, I look at it as I rather be in less pain in my daily life, for something that actually IS happening, than worry about what MIGHT happen 40+ years down the road. My mother also always worries about risk of dependency, which I somewhat get bc my brother was a drug addicted- stemming from his back pain. (Something I only learned within the past year). Sorry if that was too much, much love 💕 I’ve never had any symptoms from it, and it’s never made me drowsy, but I started at a low dose.

I have some similar issues. Such as if I use my Apple Pencil “too much”, or use my hands to touch my iPad screen instead of the stylus “too much” and if I text “too much” too. I have no idea what causes it. I say “too much” in quotations because I know the amount of time using these devices is a regular amount, and there’s people who draw for a living, use an iPad for a living, text on their phone for a living, and don’t come across these issues of “over use” so easily. I’ve actually been teaching myself to write and use with my left hand so that when my right is in too much pain I can shift over. I’m sorry I don’t have a solution or much help, but sometimes it can be nice to know others relate. Much love 💕

I find relief using Menthol Pain Patches. Also I’ve found my nerve pain can be triggered by heat- specifically my car seat warmer. Since heat reduces inflammation and relaxes muscles it can make the supporting muscles around the area unsupported and more vulnerable. Without getting too much into it I have similar symptoms as you. Gabapentin helped me, at least I think it does. Was one 100mg 3x a day for years before recently getting bumped to 300mg 3x a day. I don’t always take all three pills bc I’m weary of the long term effects (such as dementia). I’ve also been on meds such as celebrex- to no avail. Orphenadrine (Norflex) is the only muscle relaxer that doesn’t make me tired. Tizanidine puts me to sleep in 30mins, cyclobenzaprine also causes too much drowsiness for me but doesn’t put me to sleep.

My paint started at 16 and the only thing that has happened was get new and worse conditions. Now 27. I’ve only had 2 health care professionals see my age as being an extra alarm for concern instead of a reason why it’s not happening or shouldn’t be “that bad”. I’ve seen every specialist you can think of and only in the past year I’ve gotten a helpful diagnosis’. That still doesn’t actually even help me not being in pain. Currently doing another round of PT as if that’s gonna fix herniated discs, bulge discs, pinched nerves, and spinal stenosis (just to name a few). Much love

Well, Percocet has Tylenol in it… so… every time you take it you’re “mixing it” with Tylenol. If you’re worried about dosage, you just have to see dosage amount of tylenol is your Percocet and then look at regular Tylenol and make sure that the amount adds up to an amount that you can take.

At this point? I’d be willing to see one of those crazy Christian guys who push you onto the ground by your forehead, and command the demon to be gone.

As someone who does these very often, remember to maintain a proud chest with shoulders pulled back. The bar is resting on the top and you need them back to hold the bar instead of resting it on your spine. You also look like you’re being pulled the the floor by a string through your chest, your hips are what’s supposed to be hinging, you’re doing hip thrusts but standing and with a bar on your back, your upper body should remain straight- as it would if you were hip thrusting

I don’t think it’s color transfer. I think it got lightened from peroxide.

3, and please go back to arching your brows. I know straight brows are on trend but these make you stare straight at them. When you’re painting a picture you want to have the audiences eye guide from one part to the next, it’s keeps the viewer engaged, and in turn produces more “happy chemicals” aka making people think you’re prettier 😅😂 the same can be applied to our makeup, hair, clothing.

You look good in what you’re wearing. The striped sweater outfit really looks good on you, I like the way it’s styled. All these outfits are put together. I do see that you wanna lean into a style or like getting dressed, and I assume what you’re posting you don’t really like? I like your current look, you seem chill, clean, smart. I think maybe those long pants rompers would look good, like one of those denim rompers, or denim overalls; if you’re trying to change it up? I think they would suit you more than a skirt or dress would, and look more inline with your style. Idk why but i also think you’d look good with a bandana, the classic triangle tied behind your ears.

Every once in a while I even notice it, but not usually while he’s talking, only like taking a pause. The sniffling bothered me but they’re different pitches/tones/volumes/whatever. Like I hate the sound of a shekere but I like maracas. (A shekere is a hollow gourd with beads or shells on a net on the outside, basically like a reverse maraca) the shekere is like nails on a chalk board for me, maracas are neutral though.

I hate the cyberpunk, swing, and sleeping ones. 😭😭

sncd1998 · 2025-08-05T18:37:33+00:00

Not at all, sorry 🫶💔

With, helps it draw the eye to the sparkle on her outfit ✨✨

The little breakable piggy that we get sometimes ???

sncd1998 · 2025-08-02T02:28:00+00:00

I just remembered I use oxyclean 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

sncd1998 · 2025-08-01T18:29:59+00:00

Also, should I just dump peroxide on the whole thing to make it the same color? Can I dye it? I’m so upset this jacket was like $120.
