Donating plasma helps people suffering from chronic illness, severe burns or trauma, as they receive vital plasma protein therapies that can improve the quality of their lives. The procedure is usually relatively painless, similar to getting blood drawn for lab tests or getting stung by a bee. If you experience more moderate pain or discomfort after donating plasma, there are some simple self-care procedures you can follow to help manage the soreness. Is This an Emergency? If you are experiencing serious medical symptoms, seek emergency treatment immediately. Wrap up in a blanket or heating pad. This staves off pain caused by stiffness and aches from feeling cold. Many patients report feeling chilled during the procedure, as blood is filtered through the plasma separation process before being returned to the body. This chill can give you temporary cold or flu like body pains. Herbal Remedies for Dermatitis Stasis
