Explanation:

Basically, Antipsychotic drug medication increases  heat sensitivity of the  skin.Therefore when you applied heat pad to your muscle spams, you are increasing  the risk of  damaging your skin layers. This can cause photosensitivity-like reaction  in your skin.This is the  chemical reactions in the skin   characterised with inflammation of the affected part,  rashes,  itching, blisters etc.Therefore I will advise you not to apply heat pad rather make use of cold pad.

no, because those are both different running competitions. while distance runners train their legs and their lungs to run long amounts of time, the sprinters are training their legs and their lungs to give all they have in the little amount of area they need to cover. the brain also plays a huge part in all of this.

the brain is the only thing in your body that sends messages to your body telling you to run. if you are a long distance runner and you have the mind set of a sprinter, you will not get anywhere. if you have a long distance mind set and you have to run 200m in 20 seconds then you will not make it in time.
