I usually try to figure out what my body is trying to do and then try to assist it. It loses something in its emergency responses, so I try to supplement the depleted nutrients. A surplus of vitamin C is right; it helps clean the blood of its waste byproducts and restores depleted blood levels. I like to drink ginger-ale to make vomiting less unpleasant. Taking a hot baths and staying warm generally seems to help. I usually work through it. Muscle relaxants, anti diarrhea, nausea medications get me through.

Depending on the situation and the cause of the pain, heating pads, warm baths (using epsom salts in some cases), sleep in a dark, cool room, drink plenty of clear fluids, green teas, eating bland foods.


A lot depends on the nature of the pain/discomfort as well as other symptoms.

Play a video game or do a craft/hobby to take your mind off of it and pass the time.
