Shermens disease is what it is from

Answer 1

Some great things you can do for chronic back pain include: appying ice packs or heating pads (whichever seem to work best for you) whenever the pain starts to get worse, OR as a preventative (for example, if you just went out gardening for an hour and that usually flares up your back, put ice on the spot right away to help keep the flare-up from even beginning); acupuncture; yoga; Pilates to help build up your core muscle/abdominal strength (it's your abs that help to protect your back whenever you do something that strains your back's muscles); regular aerobic exercise; eating a healthy diet; losing weight if you are overweight or obese.

Physical therapy from a professional can also be extremely helpful, and if you haven't done PT yet, talk to your doctor about getting some appointments. This is usually the standard first step for anybody who has a back pain problem.

Also, if the pain is pretty severe and constant, consider talking to a mental health professional as well. Chronic pain is extremely stressful on your entire body, and often leads to depression and/or anxiety, which can make the pain even worse.

Hang in there and good luck!

It sounds like your digestive system is all messed up. Try the following. Get a gallon of Aloe Vera Juice mix 1/2 cup of it with 1/2 cup of prune juice. Drink it first thing in the morning. The two will work on your digestion and should correct the problem in a day or so. But I would drink it daily to keep the problem corrected. I just thought of something else. Does your back hurt in the middle? I have had this before when a vertebrae L 11 I think, gets out of place it radiates the muscles around to your stomach. And Adjustment with the Chiropractor would probably fix it. I have had this many times in my life, so now I know when that is the cause of the stomach ache, then nausea, then vomiting. L 11 is just about at the bottom of your shoulder blades. Both of you might consider this. The nausea and vomiting will stop immediately when the vertebrae is back in place.

Get one of those big slanty pillows and put it at the head of your bed, (big part near top of hed of course).. Get another pillow, one called a "back hugger".. It pushes into the small of your back. Lay the 2nd pillow on top of the first ..the back huggar so that it fills into the small of your back, and lay back and have a nap. Use it to sleep in all night long.

There is something, comes in a abottle, called d-otubo-curarine per cc..for intramuscuilar use only. It is a majic painkiller. a 1 cc injection has been used for pain, and in 45 mink pain has slackened off. Object is next day to be able to take manipulative treatments and maybe a second injection of the doctor's bottled magic.. no adverse reactions and no recurrence of the pains.. but people have to avoid being careless when lifting and avoid it. The stuff is not a narcoticI t has worked at a critical point of juncturer between nerve and muscle called the myoneural junction in the hands of a genius.
To keep from throwing your back out, when you want to pick up somethinbg off the floor get up and kneel down. Don't lean forward and then push yourself forward when it takes bending your back.

Answer 6

It depends on the cause of your back pain. If it's purely muscular, adn there are no disc problems, the two best "remedies" are to do lower body strength training, which shifts tension to the largest muscles of the body, which reduces stress on teh lower back. Stretching is also critical. The other treatment is deep tissue massage (trigger point therapy) to release tight spots in the muscle fascia. You wouldn't believe how effective it is until you try it.

Answer 7

Hey there,
It is a fact that no one condition reflects sciatica and it would be prudent to refer to it as a generic medical term encompassing lots of symptoms that taken together describe a lower back pain that a patient suffers from. When someone complains of severe back pain that passes down to legs through his buttocks, even down to his feet and toes, doctors suspect him to be suffering from sciatica. Often sciatica presents itself as numbness or a tingling sensation that may not be anything like the severe pain commonly associated with sciatica. This tingling or numbness may be felt by the person when he engages in some activities.


On this site you can find very good tips on how to treat your sciatica: http://curesciatica.toptips.org
Good Bye
