A '''medicine ball''' (also known as a '''medicine ball''' or a '''ball of medicine''') is medicine in the shape of a ball. Let's not overthink this one. So you know how medicine sometimes can come in the shape of a pill? Well, folks, guess what, medicine can come in the shape of a ball. And a huge ball too. Some medicine balls (also known as '''la palla medica''' in Italian) can weigh as much as 25 lbs, so you better get a huge tank of water ready to gulp down this behemoth. Though '''balls of medicine''' can be used for rehabilitation and strength training, they are best consumed daily after a large meal to avoid stomach irritation(see [[Medicine Ball-Induced Esophagitis]]).
 Of note, '''medicine balls''' should not be halved or cut like pills; medicine balls will burst like a balloon. And we all know what happens when your balloon bursts: you cry.  '''Other Balls'''----* [[Amazeballs]]* [[Cannonball]]* [[Eyeball]]* [[Testicles]]  '''See Also'''----- [[Medicine Ball-Induced Esophagitis]] [[Category:Medications]][[Category:Medical Device]][[Category:Rehabilitation Medicine]]
