Mentone Syrup

Hello lybrate-user, I hear your husband's problem for back and neck pain and I will be happy to help you. The major concern here is sitting in one position in a chair for hours! please avoid that. Our spine gets used to sitting and staying in one painful position for so long unknowingly while working at the office that it drains out all the energy of the spine. The water level is also reduced thus making the spine tired, weak, soft and prone to pain and muscle tightness. Let's discuss some tips and exercises that needs to be done in order to fix this problem: 1. Change your posture every 15 mins. Get up from the chair and take a small walk or do some gentle neck and back stretches as mentoned below. This will reduce the constant load on the spine. While sitting on the chair, also do some hand stretches to release overall tension. 2.you must daily perform some gentle back stretches such as: bending backwards as tolerated; hugging both the knees towards the chest to feel the stretch in the entire spine and bending to the sides alternatively. For neck, bend side ways, forwards and backwards to feel the stretch gently without jerks. Hold all the stretches for atleast 30 seconds- 1 minute and repeat 5-6 times/day. 2. Tuck your tummy in everytime you sit up, stand, walk, lie down and while carrying out all daily activities. This makes your core muscles strong (natural belt around the belly) 3. Sleeping- make sure you lie down with both the knees bent at 90 degrees and keep a pillow under the thigh- this releases tension in the back of the thigh muscle (hamstrings) and eventually reduces back pain 4. Hydrate your spine well. Sufficient water intake throughout the day. 5. Also try this stretch, cross one leg on the thigh in a figure of 4 pattern and push the knee down with the hand to feel the stretch in the buttock alternatively. Hold this stretch for 1 minute and repeat for 5-7 times/day. This stretch is called office stretch to instantly release tension off the back of the thigh and buttock muscle called piriformis further queries or concerns please contact me and I will be happy to help you. Take care.

Hello lybrate-user. I don't know which product are you referring to as you have not mentoned the name. But most of the fairness products are having side effects and they don't give permanent results and as soon as you stop them the skin becomes the same. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment.
