Easy Remedy & Relief Help

One of the best, if not the best, back pain solutions comes from homeopathic medicines. Why should this be the case?

Let’s just look at the reasons behind back pain first. They can come from an injury, from bad posture, from degenerating bone tissue, from weak tendon support, from any number of reasons. So your particular reason for back pain holds the key to its resolution.

But all the reasons do also have a common denominator. And that is an inefficient immune system.

A really efficient immune system either prevents disease in the first place, or rapidly cures you from, say an injury.

The vast majority of the human race have badly compromised immune systems for a variety of reasons. Some common reasons are a lack of personal worthiness, fear, a poor diet, a history of unresolved emotional upheavals, a lack of personal care from adequate sleep, exercise, relaxing time, time spent in nature and so forth.

All these issues are important to address and bring back into balance. The snag is, they all take time to not only bring into your life, but also to restore balance.

The far faster way to achieve this is by the use of homeopathy. As there are so many homeopathic medicines, and the fact that you need skill in matching the best medicine to your symptoms, seeing a professional homeopath is also the easiest way.

However, there are always other ways at arriving at the same point. Homeopathic home prescribing can be enormously rewarding as well as very satisfying.

Rhus tox is a common home prescribing medicine with many virtues up its sleeve. One of the most common of these is ailments to bones. This can range from a joint injury, a family disposition to joint pain and degeneration, or the common bone labels of arthritis and rheumatism.

However, for Rhus tox to be your back pain solution, you must be able to match your symptoms. So the typical symptoms of Rhus tox back pain are:

• after an injury, accident, over lifting or straining
• stiffens on sitting
• worse initial movement, better continued movement (rusty gate syndrome)
• better pressure and heat

So the most common symptom, apart from the pain, is the stiffness. This you need for Rhus tox to work for you.

Washington, Dec 31 (ANI): Transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS), a widely used pain therapy involving a portable device, is not effective in treating chronic low-back pain that has persisted for three months or longer.

And thus, a new guideline issued by the American Academy of Neurology has not recommended the therapy for chronic pain.

The guideline determined that TENS can be effective in treating diabetic nerve pain, also called diabetic neuropathy, but more and better research is needed to compare TENS to other treatments for this type of pain.

Research on TENS for chronic low-back pain has produced conflicting results.

For the guideline, the authors reviewed all of the evidence for low-back pain lasting three months or longer.

Acute low-back pain was not studied. The studies to date show that TENS does not help with chronic low-back pain.

All but one of the studies excluded people with known causes of low-back pain, such as a pinched nerve, severe scoliosis (curving of the spine), severe spondylolisthesis (displacement of a backbone or vertebra) or obesity.

In the one study that looked at low-back pain associated with known conditions, TENS was not shown to be effective.

The only specific neurologic cause of chronic low-back pain where TENS was studied was multiple sclerosis, and TENS was not shown to help.

“The strongest evidence showed that there is no benefit for people using TENS for chronic low-back pain. Doctors should use clinical judgment regarding TENS use for chronic low-back pain. People who are currently using TENS for their low-back pain should discuss these findings with their doctors,” said guideline author Dr. Richard M. Dubinsky of Kansas University Medical Center.

Dubinsky stated further that good evidence showed that TENS could be effective in treating diabetic nerve pain.

With TENS, a portable, pocket-sized unit applies a mild electrical current to the nerves through electrodes.

TENS has been used for pain relief in various disorders for years. Researchers do not know how TENS may provide relief for pain.

One theory is that nerves can only carry one signal at a time.

The TENS stimulation may confuse the brain and block the real pain signal from getting through.

The guideline is published in the latest online issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. (ANI)
