Try ginger for acting muscles

Ginger has always been known to relieve stomach pains, but new research shows it may also be a pain reliever. A study published in The Journal of Pain has observed the effects of ginger on exercise-induced muscle injuries.
The research demonstrated pain was decreased by a moderate to large degree thanks to daily consumption of ginger. Researchers performed two separate experiments to study the effects of raw or heated ginger on muscle pain induced by exercise on 74 healthy adults. These 74 people exercised in a variety of ways specifically to induce muscle pain over 11 days while taking ginger supplements or a placebo. The results were raw and heated ginger reduced muscle pain by 25% and 23%, respectively.
Researchers explain past studies have shown anti-inflammatory properties in animals which can explain the helpful effects on muscle pains. Though, researchers doubt the helpful effects of heated ginger on muscle pains. The study did not confirm the help of heated ginger compared to regular ginger.
