Heat pack and panadol
Good tip with the heat pack, thanks. I have so much I wanted to do today but alas :/
Grab some Fisiocrem and lather it on and around the pain. I have regular neck pain and this is my go-to. Also, neurofen will be more effective if the pain is inflammation based.
I'd figure it's a pain/injury you're quite familiar with! Yeah, I go for nurofen 90% of the time, it's helped mask the worst of it. Thanks heaps for the gek recommendation, I might give that a whirl if it's what works for you
e: interesting that it has St John's Wort as an ingredient. I wonder if topical application would interfere with an antidepressant regime
Edit... Spelling ... It's actually called Fisiocrem
