Aches and pains.

[DHTiling]

Name your aches and pains from the job you love... :whatchutalkingabout


I get regular joint aches from fingers through gripping trowels etc to achy knees on large floors, some nights after work i walk like a geriatric :lol:


Any good remedies..

I take a product called Optiflex Glucosamine HCI 1500mg a day, tends to help with joints, do notice a difference when I hav'nt taken them for a week or so.

All of the above Dave, permanent aching back and permanent ear ache from the Missus from always being away:lol:

Went to see an osteopath on Friday, well worth the £45 as my back feels loads better!

Fingers, wrists, elbows and shoulders always get me, just aching not particularly painful. Got trigger finger as well.

Broken skin on fingers from continal washing trowels between batches then exposure to cement... I simply can't do gloves! Dizziness, sometimes I can do a whole shift and forget to eat or drink then by end of day I really feel crap

Ahh shoulders... my AC has gone in my right shoulder, so lots of grouting gives me grief...

Neck, shoulder, back, knees, fingers, painful but I'm used to it. My head is the thing that worries me, the lack of respect for skilled people is ruining this trade. Rant over.:mad2:

I ache to have a customer who isn't a pain

 

[charlie1]

I understand why you feel like that phill when everyone thinks they can do it!

Not got anything serious but do quite a lot of 12 hour days so come in aching all over sometimes.

Good old urine over the pinholed fingers is a cheap remedy. :lol:
