Treatment for electrical socket shock
The best thing that will take care of an electrical shock is time. However, if you are in too much pain or discomfort, you can try a couple of simple remedies. Massage the affected area gently and for at least 20 minutes, with warm olive oil. This will go a long way towards restoring circulation in your body. Once that happens, you will feel the impact of the shock beginning to recede. You may have to continue with the massage for a long time, though. If you do not see instant results, do not be disheartened. If your nerves in the area have gone numb, they may just take a while to restore their usual functioning capacity. The other thing you can do is take ice massages. You should go for this option only if you have any residual burns left over from the shock, or if you have split skin or any other kind of injury. An effective ice pack would be to put ice cubes in a cloth and rub it all over the affected area gently. This should also last about 15 to 20 minutes for it to actually become numb and soothe. If you have any burns, make sure they are taken care of before you proceed with these massages.
