A member asked:
I literally can relax my muscles and they will tighten back within 10 mins whether standing or sitting. i cant massage my muscles everytime they tense?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tense muscles can: be loosened w/massage or hot shower but if they tighten up significantly and quickly you need to find the root of the muscle tension. Low magnesium is one possibility. Please see your doc to rule out medical conditions. Consider seeing a mental health professional for stress management. Peace and good health.
