Moved to Denver where I’m just doing more hiking and walking. It’s great, but I am noticing more pain and stiffness in my ankle and calves. Any tips specifically for recovery? Im already looking into possibly new shoes and exercises.

CO resident here. I’d expect that it will go away as your muscles get stronger. I 2nd lots of water and stretching. Also, hiking poles for anything steep to put less strain on your joints. Having a hot tub to soak in after hikes is great too.

Supportive shoes for sure, and stretching. If you’re doing a lot of hills, it puts a lot of stress on your calves. Mine are tight to begin with, so I notice changes in terrain and their effect quickly, and same with if I wear the wrong shoes.

Stretching for sure and maybe try Physocal Therapy

Go to a physical therapist or a doctor. Stop seeking medical advice from fishbowl

Try yoga if you’re near a studio!

Potentially loose weight, or strength train your legs

And drink a ton of water

Supportive hiking boots 100%. Epson salt bath afterward. Elevate your feet afterward. Lots of h20 and stretching

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?
