220403 Sciatica

So for about six weeks, I have had a form of back pain called Sciatica. In my case, it is a bad headache down my left leg. Pills help, but don't cure. I use Naproxen for six hour relief, and I use Ibuprofen for four hour relief, but it works in about 20 minutes. The two combined (one pill each) keep me from doing nothing but quietly wasting my life.

It has taken me a while, but I looked up what to do on the internet. I found a series of familiar stretches.

The internet is getting weird. The servers are interested in what browser you use, and fiddle far too much with the data than is needed. It slows everything down, and I am not certain it helps the provider. Perhaps it keeps the Webmaster employed.

I include ten pictures to help you stretch to relieve your pain from Sciatica.

2015 is upon us.
