3. Analgesics
While we’re all for home remedies, it is very important that you don’t let a love of all things natural cloud your judgement. Some problems are better treated with medication as we are seeing here.
As well as seeing your doctor for a topical steroid cream, it’s also important to use analgesics generally: pain killers that can help to ease all discomfort by altering the way that pain signals are sent and received in the brain.
Good options include ibuprofens and paracetamols. They might not be ‘natural’ but they work.
