My whole body aches after visiting the amusement park. How can I get better?

Question

Hello doctor,

I am a 20 year old female. Two days ago, I went to an amusement park. Yesterday, it felt more or less like my body ached, but I still went to my spinning class in the evening. Today, when I tried to get up in the morning, I struggled with lower back pain, and my arms hurt. It hurts to sit and walk, I am so uncomfortable and aching all over. Is this because of the amusement park? What can I do to get better? My exercise has never caused me this pain.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Regarding your explanation, your complaint seems to be general muscle fatigue, muscle spasm, and weakness. This is likely due to the amusement park visit.

Take a warm bath and try to relax.
Lie on the bed at a position you feel comfortable with.
If you can, do simple stretching exercises. If you cannot, you can skip it. It is not a problem.
You can use any muscle relaxant cream and analgesic pills like Panadol (Paracetamol). You will be fine in a day or two.
If you feel that your symptoms are increasing or the pain is getting worse, you will need to visit the nearest clinic to get examined.
