Pain-reducing (analgesic) drugs such as paracetamol (Panadol/ Tylenol) and anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen (Brufen) and diclofenac (Voltaren), may provide relief for a few hours, but negative side effects can sometimes be severe. However, sufferers of niggling aches and pains, stiffness, back pain etc., can reduce or eliminate pain and improve movement, by lightly applying wheatgrass extract (e.g. Dr Wheatgrass Superbalm) to affected area(s).
Light daily application (or more frequently if essential) over painful muscles and joints, particularly in the lower back, can do much to reduce pain and stiffness and to accelerate recovery.
The extract can also soften and loosen up stiff fingers, the back, and all other painful joints, as well as hasten recovery of swollen joints and bruised areas. Also, bruising and pain caused by anticoagulants and other drugs can be relieved by applying a little wheatgrass extract over painful area(s) - as required. It also accelerates healing of damaged skin.
