I am experiencing this as of late. Being averse to doctors and medicines in general, I have been dealing with this for the past week on my own. I believe the origins of this were when I cut my finger with a pair of scissors. The cut was substantial. I did pour some disenfectant speciafically made for cuts, but reopened the wound a day later when I hit it against something.
I believe I developed an infection from this and consequently my body has developed an inflamation. During the day it is bearable as I am mobile, and on a pain scale of 1 to 10 it is only a 1. But at night when I am immobile the pain jumps up to about a 4. One cannot sleep well when having to deal with a 4.
On a good day I am only getting about 5 hours sleep, on a bad day considerbly less. I am eating berries and broccoli, and using olive oil which are well known anti inflamatories, as well as green tea.
Any advice as to how I can get a good night's sleep without having to take pills, would be useful. Hot baths do help but only for about 30 minutes as the pain always returns.
