One of the things they told me to do is to get Vitamin D (sunlight) on my back. And the other was hydrotherapy. So I combined both and started going out to rivers and then to the sea, to get some exercises and to get the sun.
Good decision, no? But no.
I slapped on Sunscreen and went to do some exercises (hydrotherapy).
We have around 300 small islands around our main island. As Pacific Ocean is all around us so hydrotherapy should be easy, right?
But I needed to go in the water and get the sun at the same time...
Even a week after, I still have peeling skin...
So I haven't been back to the sea for now. But I need to go and do my exercises for my back pain. I'm thinking of going again...

Hi Nas
ReplyDeleteI have the same problems and we have a leisure centre near us that does aqua aerobics and I am hoping that after I see the Doctor next week that I will be able to join in with them and get some hydro-therapy there in an indoor pool. I do hope you are feeling better soon
have Fun
Helen
DeleteHow awesome that you have a leisure centre, Helen. At least you won't be exposed to the sun. I need to look into it if we have any near us. I hope you feel better soon too.
Hope your back is feeling much better. Your sunburn doesn't look good although that island looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lady Fi. Back is much better now. I did go again last weekend but used lots of sunscreen.
DeleteI am so sorry to hear of your back pain. Hopefully you will find holistic ways that will help minimize it. I have very light, easy burning skin so I empathize with your burn. It must be wonderful to have beautiful islands to enjoy there.
ReplyDeleteHi Miss Val!
DeleteYes the islands are really beautiful around here!
Oh ouch. Probably easier to take some vitamin D pills. Sorry to hear you're dealing with back pain. The pictures of the island were wonderful though.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary!
DeleteYes, I do take vitamin D tablets and I also had to take vitamin B12 injections.
Sun is okay in small doses and then you need protection. You did yourself up big didn't you.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and thanks for visiting Comedy Plus. ♥
Yep, Sander! I didn't do myself any favors!
DeleteSo sorry about your poor back.

DeleteI am so sorry to hear about your back pain. That is no fun! The sunburn looks painful. Hope you can get a little time out in the sun and water- maybe a little at a time. :) Good luck!

Thank you Jess. I think that's what I should have done...little at a time. But I just wanted my back pain to go away and to get well fast so I did overdo it all at once!
