If you have suffered a painful muscle strain, you can try to alleviate it with the home remedy apple cider vinegar.
Home remedies – alleviate muscle strains with apple cider vinegar compresses
To do this, dip a cloth in pure apple cider vinegar and wring it out. If you like, you can now also sprinkle the cloth with a little cayenne pepper. Then place the cloth on the affected muscle area, place a terry cloth over it and let it work for about 5 – 10 minutes. Repeat this procedure more often.
Another variation is to dip the cloth in apple cider vinegar mixed with 2 tsp of iodized salt and then place it on the affected area.
Extra tip: This compress also helps with bruises, hematomas or swellings, because the vinegar has a pain-relieving and decongestant effect.
