I'm a Slacker with a running problem, wait, maybe that's backwards

I am usually bruised in one place or another. I’m notorious for running into things and forgetting about it until I see the bruise. It’s a running joke in my family that we are notorious for hurting ourselves in new and inventive ways. We’ve all made a doctor’s visit or ER trip where the nurse just looks at us and says “you did what how?”. I also tend to be anti pain medication, my go to is usually an ice pack for every ailment. Migraine? Ice pack. Sinus congestion? Ice pack. Shin splints? Ice pack. But that’s also how I gave myself second degree burns on both my legs. But that’s another story.
So I figured I would give Earth’s Care Pain Relieving Ointment a try. All natural ingredients that I could actually pronounce? Score. When it arrived and it smelled like wonderfully, minty menthol goodness, well that was just a bonus. 😊
I am sure my bruise free streak will end at some point. My shins will likely ache once I end this unplanned running break. Now I have something to help me instead of suffering in silence. Well, I was never really silent, I whine a lot. 😛
What do you do when something hurts?
Are you accident prone?

Not sure, I’ve never tried Tiger Balm. Not sure I’ve ever even seen it.

I am super accident prone. I seem to have a terrible spatial awareness because I always bump into things. Good to hear that there are others out there like me. 🙂

I am forever running into things, have since I was a child. If there’s a sharp corner on something, I will find it. 😛
