If you or someone you know suffers from the terrible affliction of right arm pain, you’re not on your own. In fact, arm pain is incredibly common amongst a wide range of people. It can occur in just about any part of the arm from the shoulder down to the fingertips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pain can range from being mildly annoying, right through to being excruciating and even unbearable. This has huge implications for anyone looking to go about their daily life as normal and can restrict people from even the simplest tasks such as holding things, lifting things and push and pull movements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of people may be tempted to head to the doctor to treat their right arm pain, but home remedies could be the answer that you’re looking for. Without wasting any more time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 8 of the most effective home remedies that could help relieve the pain in your right arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.     Cold Compress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes the old ones are the best ones and they don\u2019t come much older than the good old cold compress. Believe it or not, a cold compress could be one of the most effective home remedies to treat pain in the right arm. The very cold temperature <\/a>of the compress will serve to numb the sensitive tissue in the affected area, helping to relieve the feeling of pain.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The added benefit of using a cold compress to treat right arm pain is that it can also help to reduce inflammation. The best way to prepare and use a cold compress to treat pain in the right arm is to place some ice cubes inside a towel before wrapping it around the arm or onto the affected area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For optimum results, you should really try to keep the compress on for up to 15 minutes at a time, and to repeat the process several times a day over the course of a few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2.     Massage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another very effective home remedy for the treatment of right arm pain is found with a massage<\/a>. Massage can be a very effective way of treating all kinds of pain in the right arm. The simple beauty of massage is that it can be very effective in releasing the stress within the painful and affected area or areas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of people are steering towards the world of essential oils for massages these days, but a simple homemade blend of mustard oil and coconut oil could be just as effective when it comes to treating pain in the right arm with a massage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea is to gently massage the arm with a view to improving the blood circulation in the area. By doing this every day for up to 3 or 4 times a day, a person can expect to see a significant improvement fairly quickly. If you can get someone else to do it, even better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3.     Turmeric<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Turmeric <\/a>is something else which has been found to be more than capable of helping to cure or at least relieve arm pain felt in the right arm. The compound present in turmeric, known as curcumin, contains powerful anti-inflammatory properties that work in perfect harmony with antioxidants in order to reduce swelling and pain that may be felt in the affected area of the right arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The use of turmeric is best implemented as a topical appointment, although it can be taken as a supplement or as an ingredient within certain dishes and meals. In order to use turmeric as a topical ointment, a person can make a paste out of a mixture of turmeric powder and coconut oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both ingredients are widely available from supermarkets and food stores. Once the paste has been made, the painful right arm can be treated with the mixture up to two times a day for as long as is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

4.     Ginger<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another home remedy that comes straight from the spice rack, ginger <\/a>is another example of a supremely effective home remedy that is capable of treating right arm pain that may have been caused by a number of different things.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within ginger, as with turmeric, there are powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that work together to eliminate any kind of inflammation. Naturally, ginger aids the circulatory system and can enhance the flow of blood which subsequently speeds up the healing process. A top tip for using ginger in the treatment of right arm pain would be to wrap up a good porting of grated ginger inside a cloth or bandage and tie it up tightly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once secured, this bundle can be placed in hot water for up to the minute. Once it has cooled a little, the treatment can be applied directly to the painful area. This can be repeated a couple of times a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

5.     Cayenne Pepper<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is such a thing as a powerful little compound known as capsaicin. Capsaicin is well known for having potent analgesic <\/a>and anti-inflammatory properties, making it very useful in fighting inflammation and reducing swelling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, cayenne pepper contains capsaicin as one of its main compounds, making this spicy ingredient something which could be a very effective home remedy in the treatment of right arm pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to use cayenne pepper to this end, it is a good idea to apply it directly onto the affected site of the right arm. Don’t sprinkle it on as you would over pasta though, instead make a blend of cayenne pepper with a few spoonfuls of tepid olive oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the mixture has been prepared, it can be massaged directly onto the skin up to three times a day until the pain has improved. If you like your food spicy, you may just want to include cayenne pepper as a regular ingredient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

6.     Apple Cider Vinegar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yet another example of a home remedy that is perfect in relieving the pain felt in the right arm is found with the incredibly versatile apple cider vinegar. Apple cider vinegar<\/a> contains alkalizing and anti-inflammatory properties which serve to reduce swelling and pain in the affected area.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best way to use apple cider vinegar is to drink it neat from a large glass. However, this method of consuming apple cider vinegar has been known to be rather unkind on the palate and has even made people sick in the past, so you might want to try this instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simply by adding 2 cups of unfiltered apple cider vinegar to a running bath that you then soak in for half an hour, you can feel very good effects in terms of right arm pain relief. If you can stomach the smell, it is best practice to follow this routine on a daily basis until significant improvements with the right arm pain are noticed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

7.     Hot Compress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Almost, but not quite as effective as a cold compress, a hot compress can also help to relieve the symptoms of right arm pain, no matter what the cause may be. It has to be mentioned that this remedy is only usually effective after a period of 48 hours or 2 days has elapsed from the original injury <\/a>or the initial onset of the right arm pain.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It goes without saying that the best way to enjoy hot compression is to allow yourself to soak in a hot bath with a towel or bandage wrapped tightly around the affected area, however another way to utilize this home remedy method would be to dip the right arm into a half-filled tub of hot water for around 15 to 20 minutes up to two times a day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s face it though, if you can afford to spend nearly an hour a day with your right arm in a bath, you can probably spare the time to take a full bath too, so do it, it makes sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

8.     Lavender Oil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We briefly mentioned essential oils as a potential treatment option for right arm pain a little earlier, and as if by magic, here is an example of one of those essential oils in the very same list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lavender oil<\/a> can be used to help relax exhausted muscles which could very well be the cause of lots of different cases of right arm pain. The best way to use an essential oil like lavender oil in the treatment of right arm pain is to add plenty of drops to your bath water before soaking in the oil-infused water and steam for up to 30 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the home remedies listed here may work for one person and not for another, but the sheer range and diversity of the listed treatments should mean that absolutely anyone with any kind of right arm pain will be able to find at least one treatment method to give them some relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\r\n
