Thanks to Tylenol we
are bringing to you a topic we did not know about, and now want to spread the
news on.
Always on the go, always moving, bending,
jumping, reaching and contorting for our kids our mom backs suffer much.
Injuries, exercising and other factors can also be the culprits of back
pain. I can say from experience, motherhood has given my back pain. It is
minor, but it is there, and I never had it before.
Truth of the matter is no one wants to
endure any type of pain. Particularly, as parents, back pain can be a big
block in the way of our mom routines, needs, or the way we just enjoy time with
our families. I want to rid myself from pain quick, and for that I trust
Tylenol. It does contain Acetaminophen. I never thought about its
contents. I just took it and was happy to have my pain disappear.
Tylenol is not the only medication to
contain Acetaminophen. Actually over 600 OTC or over the counter drugs
contain it too. Here is where it gets important to have information: an
ingesting Acetaminophen at an excess of one dose a day can hinder your liver.
Not knowing can have critical consequences.

The longer we live with our back pain, the more we get to know it:
what movements we can tolerate, what activities we can do, and how far we can
go. We can also quickly determine what works best to manage, control or
dissipate our pain. What if you need more help? What is you are
treating pain and something else?
A key point to always consider is that
regardless of how well we know our pain, if we use Acetaminophen to deal with
our back pain, we truly need to keep in mind this message as we take steps to
relieve our back pain: take only one medicine at a time containing
acetaminophen.
Moms know that back pain can start before
kids arrive. During pregnancy changes in our bodies start early on to
set us on a path to quell pains. The first trimester seems to call
for pressure headaches. Relief usually is granted by taking
Acetaminophen, as indicated by doctors. As pregnancy progresses, it is
all about the back pain. Yes, you are getting ready for labor, and your body
keeps changing, plus it has been a while that you are carrying extra weight
that adds on every month. Again, Acetaminophen is usually the way to ease
the pain. From there on, you are bending to pick up your new born more
than you ever bent before. You are constantly crouching or getting down
to baby's level as she starts crawling, walking and as you have to start
admonishing. Constantly your back is working over time. You bend
over, pick up baby and go about you day using your back as support. No
wonder we have these back pains!
We have no time to loose, and can't let
our pains slow us down.
As we live with our back pain, we start to
learn about it, and how to manage it. Just never forget the rule Tylenol brings
to the forefront for us - only one medication with Acetaminophen at a time.

What if you are managing your back pain
and you catch a cold from the kids? Same rule applies. We need to always
keep in mind that we can only take one medicine at a time that contains
Acetaminophen.
In reality, this applies for the
entire family, so be mindful of the ingredients of the different medications
you are dealing with. Read your labels to keep as healthy as you possibly can.
It makes no sense to try and alleviate a pain when you are inadvertently
hurting your organs. Better read and be educated than sorry later.
If in doubt, check you medicines with this useful tool at the Tylenol site.
As with all medications you might take, consult with your physician what works best for you.
Let's practice responsible pain relief

Here's to your health and to a pain free
motherhood!
