酸痛不适

字幕原文

I woke up with a stiff neck — 早上醒来脖子僵得不行——

I must have slept on it wrong, 准是睡姿不对落枕了，

because I can barely turn my head. 因为我连头都快转不动了。

On top of that, 更要命的是，

my lower back is sore from hunching over my desk all week. 这一整周天天弓着背伏案，腰也酸得厉害。

So I decide to be kind to myself. 所以我决定对自己好一点。

I fill a hot water bottle and press it against my neck, 我灌了个热水袋贴在脖子上，

letting the warmth loosen everything up. 让暖意把紧绷僵硬的地方慢慢化开。

I rub a bit of muscle ointment into my back and shoulders, 又在背部和肩膀上抹了点舒缓药膏，

and the cooling tingle slowly kicks in. 那股清凉透爽的微刺感慢慢泛了上来。

Then I do a few gentle stretches, 接着我轻轻做了几个拉伸动作，

rolling my neck in slow circles and reaching for my toes. 慢慢地转动脖子，俯身去够脚尖。

Aches like these are the body's way of sending a bill for how I've been treating it. 这些酸痛，大概就是身体为我平时的折腾送来的账单。

I make a mental note to sit up straighter and take more breaks. 我在心里暗暗提醒自己，以后坐直一点，多起来歇歇。

Loosened up and a little less creaky, I feel almost human again. 筋骨活动开了，关节也不那么咔咔作响了，感觉整个人总算又活了过来。
