How do you release a trigger point knot? I have one I can reach but don't know how to massage it out.

I know it is a trigger point: I have had many years ago massaged out by a skilled massuse.

Suggestions?

I'm getting horrible pains in my hands and up my arms, and sometimes I can't even move my wrists. I'm not sure what to do. Its like electricity is shooting up my arm. Does anyone know what this is?

last about 3 weeks, no longer. If the bursa acts as a cushion between the muscle and the tendon, what happens if surgery is performed to remove the bursa when "all else fails"?

I don't know what to do, or what it is. I'm not with him right now, cause I'm on a business trip... but we were talking online, on aim voice chat, and he was in tears because he had such a bad headache... and then he went silent. I could hear him breathing, but that's it. then he came back, asking what had happened... then hung up. he's going to call his parents, who live in the area...

do you have any idea what could have caused this? it happened right after he'd jerked off, and it's happened before... but I have no idea what could be causing this.

I have been using a product called "Colonix" for about a month now and I am in the stage where you stop taking the capsules and tea, and only take the fiber. I have had such bad cramps and constipation, that I have not been able to eat much the past few days. Has anyone ever experienced this before, and is there any suggestions for how to eliminate these symptoms?

Is Skelaxin one of those meds that makes you feel "good" or is it like IP proffen? Im suppose to combine them with Hydrocodone. It says to take the skelaxin 3 times a day, will it make me to sleepy to function at work?

Whenever I wear flats or any other shoe that hits the back of my ankle where it bends, it irritated my skin until it cuts and bleeds, after very little walking. Why doesn't anyone else seem to have this problem? The only solution I have come up with is to wear band-aids on the back of my ankles. Any other suggestions?

This morning my doctor requested I had x-rays done which I did and now he's demanding I get a CAT scan. I told him I didn't really think one was neccessay because 1.) i have minimal insurance and 2.) he's my pain management doctor not my primary physician. He said that if I didn't get the CAT scan I shouldn't bother to show up to my next appointment. I know it's not neccesarily right but can he do that legally?

Any help would be appreciated.

Has anyone been prescribed any medication which effectively helps back pain and debilitating spasms. I get dihydrocodeine and diazepam, but would like to know of any pain killers which can help muscle spasms too as diazepam prevents you from being able to drive.
