Pain in any form can severely affect the quality of life in men, women, and children. Muscle pain, back, joint pain are problems that eventually crop up at some time or the other. This pain can be due to excess stress on muscles. In most cases, the pain gradually disappears after a few days. The problem manifests when there is chronic pain. This may be due to arthritis or any other underlying condition. This kind of pain can be severe and affect a person’s normal routine. Even simple acts like sitting down, standing up, and climbing stairs can be very painful and frustrating.
Dhanwantharam Thailam Uses
The oil should be used before having a bath. The oil should be warmed and then applied to the skin for the best effect.
