What is a good solution to my neck pain?

I got whiplash from a fall 2 years ago. Ever since, I have had chronic neck pain. I get tons of knots in my neck and my C1-C4 vertebraes rotate out of place. This gives me a limited range of motion and constant pain. My mom massages my neck and I apply heat daily. I have tried acupuncture, massage, occupational therapy, physical therapy, chiropractor, biofeedback, traction, neck pillows, and different pain meds and muscle relaxers. What other suggestions do you have to help?

Chosen Answer:

I did sort out my chronic neck pain by using a simple exercise at home every few hours. I found it in this ebook on

If i had a miscarrage and im still getting abdominal pain and lower back pain is that normal?

I think I had a miscarriage I was only 3 weeks but I didn’t know if I was pregnant but I started spotting two days ago and then yesterday I started getting bad abdominal pain and started feeling shaky and ever since yesterday IV been bleeding a lot and a lot if blood clots have been coming out. Did I really have a miscarriage and the pain is still there is that normal?

Chosen Answer:

We don’t know if you had a miscarriage. This could be normal menstrual cramps. The cramps are caused by contractions of the uterus before and during your period. The contractions cause the uterus to press against blood vessels which briefly cuts off the oxygen supply to the muscle tissue of the uterus, which is what caused the pain.

Some things you can do are to avoid salt, caffeine, smoking and alcohol which can all make them worse. Rest when you need to. Massage your back and abdomen. Use a heating pad or hot water bottle to apply heat or take a warm bath or shower – heat can often relieve the cramps. And get more exercise as a general rule. Women who exercise regularly tend to have less trouble with cramps.

If you think you did have a miscarriage you should probably check with your doctor.

what can I do with painful strained leg and hip muscles?

4 months ago I strained my leg and hip muscles that happened at work. The pain gone but today I felt the same pain. I have a hard time lifting my leg and if I put pressure into it I’ll suffer hip pain. It’s very painful. It’s not sciatic pains, is this normal?

Chosen Answer:

RICE is the standard treatment protocol for mild to moderate muscle strains.
Rest. Avoid putting weight on the hip. Your doctor may suggest using crutches for the first day or two after the injury.
Ice. Gently massage the area with ice to help decrease swelling.
Compression. Compression shorts or a wrap bandage may be helpful.
Elevation.

Can upper abdominal pain occur during your period?

I’m 15 years old and I’m known for having severe menstrual cramps, but i haven’t had upper abdominal pain before. Is this normal? I woke up at 3:30 in the morning with upper abdominal cramps and haven’t been able to fall back asleep.

Chosen Answer:

It could be normal, especially if you’re known for severe menstrual cramps. However, if this persists, then you may have an inflammation of the pancreas. You’d have to give more information though (general location of the pain; is it a sharp pain or a deeper, throbbing pain/ pain of the muscles?).

Why do you tense your muscles when you are in pain?

If it is not good for you to tense your muscles when you are in pain, why does your body automatically do it?

Chosen Answer:

its a stress busting mechanism

you need to de-stress your muscles

“We are what we repeatedly do”
Aristotle

muscle health = Stretching = increased oxygenated nourishing blood flow to the extremities

The key is to increase blood flow to the problem area; fresh nourished blood has vital oxygen
and energy that aides to eliminate the pain and heal the body

The only way to get reinforcements inside our highly complex human body is through the
Circulatory systems that provide vital source needed for all life — which is oxygen and the
carrier being blood.

Unfortunately the blood through your arteries is not like free flowing water through a plumbing
System — the blood needs to be pushed into the remote areas and the impure blood needs to be
Pumped back against gravity to the heart for oxygenation.

Due to lack of activity or stress or sedentary / busy life style
Stretching is not occurring and there is a blood traffic jam in the pipes (thereby increasing free radicals in the impure blood #1 aging accelerator ) and blood circulation weakens which causes several chronic ailments like
Back pain , stress, fatigue , depression , lethargy , aging , early wrinkles , low immunity etc…

The only way to fix this is by stretching and widening the circulatory pipes

What are the causes of my fourteen year old sister’s foot pains?

She has been having foot pains for the past six or seven hours. We did walk around the city today, but it was only for a half an hour. Is it growing pains? Muscle strains?

Chosen Answer:

It’s not likely to be growing pains. She is 14 now, and most girls stop growing entirely by then. It may be a lot of things, depending on where the pains are in her foot. It could be a corn, plantar fasciitis (ball of foot), a calcaneal spur (heel), strained tendons along the foot, or the re-aggravation of an injury. Knowing where it hurts helps figure out what it is, or at least could be. Resting it should help a lot, but if it doesn’t, a visit to a doctor (podiatrist, maybe) might be in order. . . .

My girlfriend left me unexpectedly and everything was going well?

So I met this girl 8 months ago through a friend we talked for about a month got to know each other and everything was great, after about a month we made it official and she was my girlfriend, also I have no family but one sister, I lost both my parents, mom 3 yrs ago and dad this January, she made life so great for me especially with the Hard times I was going through. I treated her like a princess btw( I’m known to be way to super nice to woman) we went on trips I surprised her many times I always tried to keep our relationship alive and fun, I’m also a chronic pain patient that suffers from severe back and muscle pains and go to pain managment and take narcotic pain medication as prescribed which was never a problem, we’ve had some ups and downs but not anything that’s not normal, I’ve always done my best and got out of my way to make her happy as possible and money was never an issue. To get to the point I’m 24 she’s 19 I don’t have 40 hour a week job but inherited several properties and make a very well income but In the past few months I’ve been financially struggling but not to the point where I would ever let her pay for dates etc….it’s a tough time but I will get through it… So about a week ago I was released from the hospital and I’ve noticed for the past month or so something isn’t the same with the way she acts, so I get a text saying I’m not doing anything with my life and don’t go to school or work, where I don’t have the time to work a job because of all the situations from the past and my pains, but I still reciave a very great income every month and am trying my best to make things better. And then I got a text from her saying have a wonderful life and another one a couple days after saying she was sorry it had to end that way and don’t mean to hurt me and she was mad at the moment. I haven’t contacted her since and she called me a couple times and I ignored her texts.. I just dot know what to do I’m lost any advice will greatly be appreciated

What causes pains on the right side of my chest?

Last night was the worst ever, it is normally a dull pain that travels around my chest, up my neck and down my arm.
Last night it stayed on the right side after travelling, it settled on the right side and felt like it was tying a knot of all the tissues and muscles beneath my skin. The pain was excrutiating!

Can anyone tell me what it is and if there’s any eastern therapy that can help. I have already told doctors but they can’t help. Because tthey don’t have anything that can help. Pain killers or muscle relaxants don’t work.

I have it for years on and off. Usually when my body is under stress like too much travelling.

Please don’t ignore me.
@ ? the web page did not work.
@ ? I can’t take tramadol

To everyone else:

I’m just looking for a way to ease the pain.Hopefully through eastern medicine because I’m a sick little lady and can’t take anymore western medicine

Why do I have extreme pain when my leg falls asleep?

After my leg falls asleep I don’t experience a tingly sensation but an extreme pain as the feeling returns to my leg. Every time the feeling begins to return to my leg I get extreme, immobilizing pain. If I move one muscle then a wave of pain and muscle tension shoots through me before everything gradually fades and returns to normal. I usually just grit my teeth and take deep breaths and try not to move while the feeling is returning. Is it normal for the pain to be this bad?

Chosen Answer:

I have that sometimes. I think you’re fine, but if it continues I would go to the doctor.

How can i prevent pain around shoulder blades when driving?

I work for UPS and when driving the truck long distances i get a pain on my right and left shoulder blades (or the muscles in that area rather). I try to change my posture or seat position and just can’t get rid of it. It doesn’t ever happen in personal vehicles though. Any idea of what I can do to prevent this? It’s getting to the point that I’m not enjoying the job like I use to because of this pain.

Chosen Answer:

Review your sitting posture; something’s not correct. Move seat forward so you are not ‘reaching’ for the wheel, grip hands at 10 and 2 o’clock on the wheel (safer). Have your eyes checked (do you lean head forward of your shoulders?

Your head weighs approx. 9 pounds and every inch your ears are ahead of your shoulders multiplies that weight upon your neck (telescoping pain to shoulder blades).
