It can help with swelling so it is worth a try. Also, I think it might help you feel better. You might have to do it for a few days before you notice a change.

(Just so you know, don't ingest it. it is a laxative.)



The epsom salts will come with basic directions on the package.
Basically, all you do is dump some in warm water and soak. For my feet, I use water as hot as I can stand it. When it gets cold, I get up and dump out the water.
Or if you are not using hot water, mix the epsom salts in hot water to disolve and let the water cool enough until you are ready for it.

13 Wonderful Ways to Use Epsom Salts

Relaxing and sedative bath: Soak in warm water and 2 cups of epsom salt.

Foot soak: Soothe aches, remove odors and soften rough skin with a foot soak. Add 1/2 cup of epsom salt to a large pan of warm water. Soak feet for as long as it feels right. Rinse and dry.
My insurance company has the same rules about the 4 hours of sleep a night for 4 weeks. I just barely made the cut off my first four weeks because I have sleep issues.

I sleep more now.

I wonder if there is a way to think smarter than the machine --- like wear the mask 30 minutes a day while you are awake so that you can add some time to the clock in the computer chip thing.
