Health Tips: How to

Just some of my ever-long list experience. I am pain-intolerant, so everytime i feel uncomfortable, i'll google/manual google to my many textbooks, on how to manage it. And here's the most effective ones, at least for me. of course, the healing power isnt ours, but we can try.

1. How to manage nausea.
Google said, chamomile tea, ginger ale. But whenever i'm nauseated, these things arent home. ok, they are never home actually, cause i think chamomile tea is only for pregnant ladies and ginger ale is an alternative to beer. wrong perception, but i couldnt change it. so, to manage nausea, i boil some oat (about 4 tablespoons) to oblivion, then drink it. to add some flavour, i make tea with that water. it's pretty good actually, like milk tea, with some chewable subtances which is marvellous.

2. How to manage menstrual pain.
Eat some cornflakes, then take mefenamic acid. sometimes the cornflakes alone can work well. but the problem, since my staple diet is rice, cornflakes isnt always there. so, take a bath, eat something, then take mefenamic acid, cover your eyes and hail to the dreamland. if you can, get someone to massage your lower back. HEAVEN.

3. How to manage sprained ankle.
RICE.
R= rest. walk only if you really need to.
I= Ice. but because i would rather drink ice than waste it on my ankle, i use sodium diclofenac. anti-traumatic, anti-rheumatic, anti-inflammation. local analgesic. it gives cool sensation, for few seconds. but it helps. if you are so lazy to get this one, go get a cool pack.
C= Compress. Bandage, of course. Not too tight, not too lose.
E= Elevated. Elevate your sprained ankle while sleeping, higher than your heart.

but if you never sprain your ankle before, take good care to never sprain it in future. cause once you  sprained, you are prone to sprain in the future, like the joint has loose or something.(i am almost a 4th year medical student and i still sprout nonsense like loose joint). and the pain isnt minimized during the next sprain. i spraint my joints (ankle, knee, wrist) too many times since i was a child, so i know, trust me.

4. How to avoid bruising after blood test
according to google, put enough pressure on the site after the test. but in my case, i keep flexing my arm and press it for quite a time, and i still got the bruise. the bruise is not painful, but psychologically it is bad. so, this point is not a point actually. if anyone knows how to avoid it please tell me. which i doubt.

and general advice, take good care of yourselves. good self-hygiene, good oral hygiene, good diet, good exercise. i really have eyes on these things, i can tell at once if someone is a clean-freak or super dirty lowlife. it's ok to have bo, people sweat, its normal, but to stink to the point people can vomit, that's a sin. yes, those kind of super stinky people do exist, the kind of you have to hold your breath while you are in 5m perimeter from them.
ps: take at least a bath everyday during summer, then you wont stink to death. If your house is out of water, go to mosque or fastfood restaurant to bath.

why i write this thing? to develop medical spirit. i am a medical student by force, i hate medical books, i hate any movies/series that related to medical eventhough the actor is my no 1 fav, i hate hospital scent, i hate nurses, when i drive i hate ambulances, so... i hope medicine loves me, because i am so going to  force myself to love him.
