Ghoulies October: GHOULIE CRUSHERS! (Page 41)

Yanti,

I finally got to do a little research and just like you mentioned there isn't too much out there. However, I found a referenced article that said:

"The fever and aches can be treated with traditional medicines like analgesics and anticonvulsants. Aspirin should be avoided. There is no medication that will kill the virus. Supportive care with rest is advised to deal with acute joint pain. Movement and mild exercise tend to improve stiffness. However, heavy exercise may exacerbate symptoms."

In terms of exercises, avoid heavy strength training. In terms of mild movement recomendations, try active range of motion activites. I know it will be boring compared to what you're used to but it's the best I can suggest from the information I have.

Here's a link that will give you some ideas for some AROM exercises:

Let me know if there's anything else I might be able to help with. Sorry I couldn't give you too much to work with. It looks according to your age that things should look up soon.

Sorry it took longer to get back to you about that then expected. I have been preparing for my trial run at that clinic tomorrow. I've been reading my athletic therapy text book trying to de-rust my brain. I really hope that I come home on Monday evening to bring good news!

Oh, weird, my pc is showing the bike one stil - well I guess Ill leave as is then.

I'm sure you will be great

Ok, question for people - has anyone seen either the Town or Buried? Going to the movies tomorrow night and those are the 2 options Ive narrowed it down to but I don't know anyone who has seen either....

Whats happening my fellow crushers?

I have been feeling like crap all week, I think sort of allergy related. Finally got my voice back today.

Got in a  nice 11.4 mi run today, loving these perfect fall days!

Time to snag some sleep before a monster day tomorrow and a long week

Nighty nite peeps!

Awesome! My shin is a bit sore from the weekend and not loving the impact right now but I'll do what I can this week and no doubt have a crazy one next week to get on target!

Just realised I need to swim every other day to hit that target but that shouldn't be a problem, just boooooring....

Just bumping us up to the top of the forum again.

Its super quiet on here today - guess I'm not the only one having a hectic day!

Welcome to my world, Rachel.

Good Morning Ghoulie CRUSHERS

Goodmorning Crushers!

Sorry I haven't seen either of these... flip a coin?

WHo wants to bet on how long it takes my PT to roll his eyes or give me the YGBFKM look about me returning to running?

Or bet on how much longer til I can run?

Or ride outside off the trainer?

Ha!~  I KNEW I would chat myself to a top page
