#chronic recurring multifocal osteomeylitis

[autoimmune-culture-is]

autoimmune culture is pretending everything is sunshine and rainbows because you don't wanna disappoint your friends. hii i also have crmo (and am a minor), and was wondering if you do anything specific to manage the pain.

yeah, trying to keep up with abled people, especially friends, is really difficult to do

as for pain, i primarily rely on the pain meds prescribed to me by my doctor. if you aren't on any, you'll have to ask for a prescription, or look for a naproxen painkiller, since it works primarily as an anti-inflammatory, which is what your body needs with crmo. ibuprofens work well as well if you can't find a naproxen.

stretching regularly and doing gentle exercises once or twice a week helps with the pain long-term if your muscles are particularly tense, and dressing warmly if its cold or even just more windy than usual also helps.
