I’m crossposting this to my LiveJournal.
I need your help. I just had a flat tire and no jack, managed to borrow one, injured my back severely while trying to lift the car enough to get the jack under the frame. It’s *almost* a herniated disk. It’s a shade this side.
I plan on taking it easy, not doing too much, but work won’t let me do that. I’m going to talk to my boss about it, but I’m not too confident they will be understanding.
So, any energy you have to spare in the way of prayers, healing or anything of the sort, please send it along. I really need it right now.
I would imagine that you pulled muscles. I will light a green spell candle tonight for you.
For your self care, you should:
ice pack for 20 minutes on injured area 3-4 times today for pain relief and inflammation
take NSAID if you have some (ibuprofen, advil)
rest
take a bath in epsom salts to pull out the toxic pain
If that does not help and you are not experiencing some relief within 48 hours, go SEE A DR!
