My first bowel movement in the morning after the injury 11/22/2025

The very first thing I appreciated today was my bowel movement. I used to have it every morning as the very first thing of a new day. Since the injury, my routine has been prevented from the sciatica pain. This morning, I went to the bathroom and had a bowel movement without any of my efforts. It was a healthy one in size and hardness.

Yesterday during the physical therapy session, my doctor suggested me to rock my both feet back and forth whenever the pain is intense. It comes with pain, but after a while, the pain reduced because of the good blood circulation.

I extended the walking distance. I still cannot walk to the full distance that I used to walk before the injury. It is only one third in the distance. I added the frequency of walking to twice a day, in the morning and evening.

In the evening around 7 p.m., our area had a tropical rain accompanied with huge size of hale, the diameter of 5 centimeter. It was freaky. I got relieved when the hale ended after 20 minutes.   

Today was the first day since the injury day that I didn’t shed tears about the intense pain.
