Can cycling affect your soccer performance?
If you do enough of it, sure. Road cycling and MTB XC is mostly about endurance, long rides at moderate power output while soccer is more about short, intense bursts. Cycling can be a good complementary exercise form to boost you stamina, but if you do too much of it you might find that your peak strength begins to suffer. Bike riders are usually fairly lean and stringy guys, while soccer players often have a bit more bulk.

However, scientific evidence specifically linking malic acid to significant anti-inflammatory effects in fibromyalgia is limited. It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before adding malic acid or any supplement to your treatment plan to ensure it aligns with your health needs.
Does Intramuscular Stimulation work on IT Bands?
Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) can be effective for addressing muscle tightness and pain in various areas, including the iliotibial (IT) band. While IMS primarily targets muscle dysfunction and nerve pathways, it may help alleviate tension in the muscles surrounding the IT band, potentially reducing related discomfort. However, it is essential to combine IMS with other treatments, such as stretching and strengthening exercises, for optimal results. Always consult a healthcare professional for tailored advice and treatment options.

Cortisone typically starts to take effect within a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the condition being treated and the method of administration (oral, injection, etc.). For localized injections, patients often experience relief from inflammation and pain within 24 to 48 hours. However, the full benefits may take longer to manifest, sometimes up to a week or more. Individual responses can vary based on factors such as the specific condition and the person's overall health.

On a final note...
Whenever in doubt about any kind of medication, always consult your doctor before actually taking.
You are taking 40mg Prozac and 100mg zydol is this safe i am a alcoholic?
Do you feel like the meds are working? because alcohol is a depressant. therefore, if you don't notice any changes even with the medication, then you should probably get some help for your alcoholism. Does your doctor know about your drinking problem? because if so, then he/she wouldn't put you on the medication if it wasn't safe.
At any rate, I would suggest getting help, as alcoholism is a disease and severely affects almost every aspect of a person's life. While it may be difficult, you have to keep in mind that there are people willing to help.
I would contact AA.
