The Best Natural Remedies for Pain

Pain is a very common symptom in our body. It is a warning that tells us that something is happening and that we have to attend to it. Nobody who has an alarm installed in their home gets up to turn it off at three in the morning. It would be nonsense to have that device installed in our house to warn us of danger, to disconnect it if it starts up. But that is precisely what we often do as soon as pain appears in our body (home). The ideal would be to wait until the cause is identified before mitigating it. And in this case, always with some natural remedy that avoids the unnecessary side effects that ALL painkillers have.

Types of Pain

There are many types of pain , sometimes generalized or local, and there is no single way to treat pain . Once we have identified the cause, we must treat it first and also try to relieve the pain. It is evident that if there is a fracture or a blow we must take action immediately. But in the rest of the cases, we tend to go ahead and treat the pain without even asking ourselves, for example, why our head hurts. There is pain in the head, throat, back, lower back, joint, stomach...etc. Each pain is different and can have a different origin. Possibly the most common pain is a headache. On one occasion I read that there are 200 causes of this pain . Among the most common are: constipation, dehydration, coffee use, or an allergic reaction.

What to Do in Case of Pain

After having tried to find the cause of the pain, we can try one of the many natural remedies that exist. As each person is unique, no two people will ever achieve the same effectiveness. This is why you have to try what works best for you. Here are some suggestions if you want to start trying.

For external use

• One of the best natural products that we can use for many of the pains we suffer is magnesium oil. Many people have written to me saying the relief they have experienced when using this product.
• In case of toothache, you can wet a few drops of peppermint essential oil on a cotton ball and place it on the tooth where you feel the pain.
• If you have stomach pain, green clay poultice. Place it in direct contact with the skin and leave it for several hours.
• In case of bumps, arnica cream is one of the best-known remedies, but you can also use a clay poultice.
• In case of muscle or joint pain, the essential oil of peppermint, rosemary, ginger, or wintergreen. Apply it two or three times a day to the affected area.
• Mustard has an analgesic effect. You can mix a little with the clay.
• Applying ice after a bruise or sprain and also in tendonitis will be helpful. Apply it indirectly for 20 minutes twice a day.
• Heat can also help improve an injury and relieve pain as it irrigates the affected area. In any of these situations, receiving sunlight on the body, and especially in the affected area, is useful.

For Internal Use:

• Turmeric Extract, tablets for internal use, especially useful for joint pain. Devil's claw extract has been used for many years, but turmeric has taken over.
• Magnesium is a general and muscle relaxant. Since more than 70% are deficient, consider taking a magnesium that is well absorbed like magnesium citrate.
