Default ranting good, prevents atrophy

i have a job now where i am required to smile for 28 hrs a week mostly on my feet. when i get home i have to practice rolling my eyes, frowning, and smirking so those other face muscles don't atrophy. i can't get used to standing up 8 hrs a day but i am hoping the podiatrist can help. so far none of this aggravates anything other than my feet.

some jobs may be beneath you, but give you the opportunity to stretch more often and have less computer work. keep looking for the job that will not hurt you. even if you don't find it at least you tried. look for ways to move beneficially when you get breathing spells.

also, on the nerve adhesions. my pt explained that nerve glides are what treat this and prevent further adhesions.
