How to relieve leg pain after climbing mountains?

Nowadays, many people like to go hiking with friends during holidays. The hiking process can make the body sweat fully, so that the fat in the body can be better consumed, which has a good effect on weight loss. Moreover, during the process of climbing, you can also promote emotional exchanges with friends, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone. However, some people often experience leg pain after climbing mountains, which brings many discomforts to their lives. So, is there any way to alleviate it?

1. Get more rest: Rest can relieve muscle soreness, slowly promote blood circulation, accelerate the elimination of metabolic products, and eliminate the supply and repair of nutrients to the sore parts of the muscles, restoring them to normal. So you should rest more after exercise to relieve fatigue.

2. Stretching exercises: When resting, don’t forget to perform static stretching exercises on the sore areas, that is, stretching exercises. How to perform this type of exercise will be discussed later.

(It is best to accompany the stretching exercise in step 2 during the hot compress process, which can speed up the elimination of muscle soreness and restore it to normal)

5. Medication: You can also choose appropriate ointment to apply to the sore muscles and use medication to relieve the pain.
