How you can take the pain out of Christmas


ACHING feet from all that shopping, hang­ overs, and indigestion can all trouble us dur­ ing the run-up to Christinas and in the holi­ day period, so we have got a package of tips and remedies. ■ ■ Partying, shopping, and all the rush and excitement associated with’ Christmas is part of the festivities, but it takes a toll on our health. If you swan through the run-up and the


■ HANGOVER High doses of caffeine and painkillers are


traditional remedies, but you could try avoiding a throbbing head altogether by sleeping on a herbal pillow after that heavy, late-night session.


■ CRAMP Around 13 million of us suffer regular


holiday without one ailment - whether it is a strained back from lugging all those shop­ ping bags or the annual sore throat - you are in the minority. ■ “This time of year always sees a rise in


night cramps - eight in 10 people have suf­ fered from muscle cramp at night - but dur­ ing the party season this number increases as we drink and dance the night away. Dr Stillman says: “Dehydration and unac­


patients coming-in. with niggling ailments, like tension headaches or backache, and digestive problems, like indigestion and heartburn, as a result of over-indulging in rich food and alcohol,” says GP Dr Paul Stillman. ■ “In addition, people are aware that a hoi--


iday is looming and they want to sort out symptoms that may have been bothering them for a while, so they can celebrate with­ out worry. Many are anxious to avoid trying to seek treatment when it's not so easily available over the Christmas period.” Check out our package of the most com­


mon 12 ailments of Christmas and tips and treatments to help prevent or cure them. .


customed exercise can both trigger cramp, particularly in the legs. Drinking Indian tonic water - which contains quinine - can help reduce attacks.” Muscle cramp can last from seconds to minutes, but the pain may be felt for up to 24 hours afterwards. If it per­ sists you should seek advice from a GP.


■ BAD BREATH Don't blow chances of romance at Christ­


mas parties because, of this embarrassing symptom. Avoid or minimise it by conscien­ tious dental hygiene: brush, floss and use a tongue cleaner. Use a mouthwash, recommended by a


dentist or pharmacist, ideally just before sleeping. Drink plenty of fluids, but avoid too much coffee and chew sugar-free gum.


■ ASTHMA Hidden asthma triggers can ruin festive


cheer for sufferers. Artificial trees and deco­ rations brought out of storage harbour dust can set off attacks for some. Asthma UK suggests washing or wiping


decorations down before putting them up and shaking artificial trees outside to shed dust before displaying. The charity also warns that pollen and


mould spores shed by real trees affect some sufferers. Avoiding those trees - and scented candles or perfumed room sprays - may reduce symptoms in the vulnerable. • Continued on next page
