I was going to do my usual weekend post, but I don’t feel like it right now. Better luck tomorrow. P.S. - do you know how long I sat here before I remembered what I came in here to do? Yep, I’m having a good day, ha. You know that feeling when you pull a muscle from coughing too hard? It’s like right above your stomach area. I feel like I pulled that muscle, except I haven’t been coughing. So now I can’t even laugh, or bend over much, or cough without it hurting. Let’s forget that fact that I feel the need to cough now that it hurts to do so. I tend to shift positions in my sleep, and I THINK I woke up on my stomach (believe it or not, I can’t quite remember), so I’m thinking I did, in fact, pull a muscle in my sleep. If it’s still hurting this much or worse tomorrow, I may make an appointment with my doctor. I don’t think it’s anything more than a pulled muscle but it never hurts to get it checked out, especially if it gets worse. I did take something for the pain, and I may take something for it before bed. I’m planning to use the heating pad for a bit too. Anyways, so that’s how my day is going, sort of. It could be better but it could also be a lot worse, so I’ll live. Welp, at least one of the dogs is snuggling with me right now lol. I’m gonna get back to my work, because I’m going to bed after Raw, I don’t care how much work I do, or don’t, get done. I wound up crashing Saturday and Sunday evening because these late nights are catching up with me. You all take care and I’ll be back at some point for the Gratitude Challenge. Photo Credit: Pixabay.

I know how painful a pulled muscle can be. I am not sure that a heating pad is the right thing to use, my doctor applied a cold patch to my pulled muscle.

I'm gonna try an ice pack tonight. The heating pad didn't help and I don't wanna try it again.

@tammys85 Remember that ice should not be applied to bare skin, use a protective covering such as a towel between the ice or heat and the skin. Take an ibuprofen to reduce pain and inflammation.

A pulled muscle can really hurt. I hope it eases up soon.
