Physical as well as mental wellbieng

Physical as well as mental wellbieng

Today, I had the misfortune to injure my back from a pulled muscle

and this has caused considerable pain. Taking painkiller meds as

well as using hot and cold packs to keep swelling to a minimum.

Thankfully, there are websites to help one with info on this condition

and if it should not get better in 1 to 3 days time, I will seek physio

advice. Mentally, I feel okay about this and trying to do my artwork

to keep my mind occupied whilst nature helps to heal. Best wishes

for a good week to each forum member. Bimby2

Sounds painful @Bimby2. A couple of days have passed since your post so I hope you're feeling better. Our backs are so important. It's a good reminder to have a stretch and look after mine a little better.

Backs are a pain @Bimby2
I really hope yours is feeling a lot better now.
Go gently and don't push yourself too hard over the next few days.
Thinking of you.
