Chicks

After 2 weeks, the chicks have grown bigger. I put the chicks under my mango tree during day time as the chicken coop is not ready yet. They enjoy the morning sun.

We made a chicken coop at the backyard. The chickens prefer to stay outside the coop during day time. They walk around, looking for sheds when the day is hot.

Having the chickens at the backyard adds life to the quiet backyard. I would say they are cute.

One of the chicken hen always run after us. I like to see the chickens around, but I dislike them dirtying my backyard.

Rearing Chicks

Some one gave us 4 chicks that he couldn't sell off in his shop.  My husband brought back these 4 cute chicks. They are on their 3rd day.





On 5th day. Eating and drinking and shitting everyday.

Knee Pain Reduced

No more knee pain when going downstairs!

The exercise class I have consistently followed for the past 4 months did strengthened my thigh to reduce my knee problem. I am glad about that. My core muscles are stronger and my back pain is less frequent. 

Now I want to give more attention to the rotator cuff problem before it gets worse. I feel the discomfort more when I wake up in the morning. The physiotherapist department schedules my appointments once every three weeks. I don't think this is enough. The reasons for me to go is to ensure that I can continue to see the orthopedist and to know what are the exercises the physiotherapist want me to do. 

Rotator Cuff

After taking the painkiller (meloxicam) for 7 days, the pain was gone for about a week. It slowly came back but it has improve a lot as compared to prior medication. The pain has reduced to only when I let down by right hand at a certain position after pulling my back zip. The orthopedist said the sound and the pain comes from the tendons sliding over the joints. I guessed the pain was more severe due to inflammation but recovered by the painkiller. What my doctor wants me to do is to strengthen the muscles supporting the joints. The same theory goes back to my knee pain when goes downstairs. The exercises which I am keeping up to has greatly reduce the occurrences of my knee pain. Now I need to do exercises to strengthen the rotator cuff. At my age of 52, every muscles that support all the joints need attention. More strength exercise. 

Ibuprofen

My son was on a school trip to Philippine last year. He had fever and the teacher gave him ibuprofen + ??. He was allergic to ibuprofen. His two eyes were swollen and he hardly open his eyes. This is the first medication that caused allergic.

Rotator Cuff

Was it a year ago when I started feeling left shoulder feeling painful when I read book lying on the floor facing down while using my two hands to support?  After that I have some difficulty putting my arm behind the back doing zippering.

The doctor prescribed me with Meloxicam 7.5mg for one week. The medicine does relief some pain. I hope I don't have to go for MRI. The inexperience nurse injected a colour dye on the vein of my sister's hand last year and my sister nearly fainted because it was so painful.
