Avatar m tn The treatment they prescribed was getting cold injections to the nerves in neck and head.

722310 tn?1234762137 Unfortunately, over-the-counter pain killers are sometimes little help with the severe pain that can be produced by back and neck problems. Likewise, opioid pain pills don't always control back and neck pain very effectively and it's very tempting to take more than the prescribed dosage. But if you do that, you're taking your life in your hands because of the large amount of acetaminophen (Tylenol) contained in most opioid pain pills.
1672915 tn?1335220598 I am 5 mnths post op and still have unbearable pain in my neck, left shoulder that sometimes go down my arm, low back and right hip pain. Last mnth I had Mri's done and my surgeon said they look good. I went and saw a pain Dr. and he put me on a muscle relaxer that's supposed to help but so far it hasn't. I am having more pain now then I did before surgery and I am becoming very depressed. I am worried that when I go back to the pain Dr.
Avatar f tn I have had neck fusion surgery and lower back surgery and was prescribed oxycontin for pain. I became addicted to the pills and was abusing them. I have stopped using them. Medical marijuana was a godsend for me. If you live in a state that allows it then check it out. Then best was I have found for using cannabis is eating it. It will help with pain more than morphine and is not addictive. Cannabis is a natural Herb not a man made drug! Help yourself and please check it out.
Avatar n tn But when he takes a nitro pill it seems to relieve the shoulder pain also, but we have trouble telling if it is his heart or the shoulder problem. Does nitro pills effect pain in other areas other that just the heart? Thanks for your response. It is appreciated.
1554181 tn?1294328303 With the rizotomy I still have all the other symptoms, the discomfort in neck and head is the worst of them, but at least no pain. This gives me quality of life I otherwise would not have had. My neurosurgeon prefers not to operate unless it becomes critical to do so. In South Africa not many cases of ACM is seen. I am lucky to be at a NS who has knowledge of it and is careful in his treatment. It does not take away the ACM or change the progression, only controls pain.
1380526 tn?1292839385 Anyone have any new ideas that will help for the head and neck pain we go through? I have tried vicodin, gabapentin, nortryptyline (sp), and a myriad of over the counter stuff, like Alleve, Tylenol, etc. I'm just not getting much relief at all!!!! Thanks!
Avatar n tn Wow!! I sure hope the truckers' insurance company will pay you for a life time of pain that seems to be inevitable for you!??? I do not know of anything for your pain other than some kind of intraveious med that can be worn and dispense the med that way. I do not even know what they are called so excuse my clumbness describing it. A lady I worked with many years ago wore one all the time, as she had also been in an auto accident. I hope others will come on soon to offer their advice.
Avatar m tn Please can you let me have some pain relief answers for arthritus in my finger joints. I am a female of 63 years. I take thyroxin for an under active thyroid and calichew calcium pills.
Avatar f tn Pain that intensifies on movement may be caused by inflammation of the blood vessels of the head or bony changes in the structures of the neck. Anti-inflammatory drugs and muscle relaxants may help provide relief. If the pain persists, further evaluation may be done for proper management. Take care and do keep us posted with her rheumatologist consult. Best regards.

1383825 tn?1315232262 I even shelled out $$$ for a deep tissue massage my neck hurt so bad. The massage helped a lot, but then today, the pain was back. In a different spot on my upper back. Do you know if this could be from detox? Oh and if anyone else has this problem, I ve also found relief from a back massager - you press it into the tight spot and get some relief from the pain. I 'lll do anything to keep from taking vicodin. That's my plan!!!
1232362 tn?1333135406 muscle relaxants, pain pills and patches and she gave me a referral to a pain mgmt for in the future. Fingers crossed! Hope you feel better too, the pain can really impact your life!
Avatar f tn The last 2 days I have had back and neck spasms that are horrific. I will be on the go the next few days with Christmas gatherings and I just don't see how I will keep up with this pain and stiffness. Work has not been fun this week. My questions for you experts: 1) could I have made my spasticity worse by starting treatment and then stopping, known as rebound, or could they be worse because I have a respiratory infection and will resolve as I recover?
Avatar f tn I had forgotten what it felt like to not have a constant HA. I still had the neck pain but that was bearable without the HA. Has anyone experienced this?
Avatar f tn i have such bad neck pain but i dont want to take anymore pills because when i dont have anymore until refill i get very depressed and achy and i dont want to do anything at all.
Avatar m tn He also gave me a scribe for norco which has helped immensly for the pain but I seem to need about 4-5 pills a day and my urologist will not refill my script saying my condition could not be causing me so much pain and is reffering me back to my GP. I am now having a flare up and have only 7 pills left. I do not know what to do.
Avatar n tn over the years i guess i have developed a high tolerance to pain meds nothing helps. i do not like taking RX pain meds due to i have 2 very active childern and i dont want to miss a minute of there lives. i do not sleep at night because when i roll over and lay on my arm i wake up hurting. am i'm the only one that has this issue? is there others like me? how do they cope? is there any relief?
Avatar f tn When I found out I had thyroid trouble in early 2004, I took generic T4 pills because my doctor had told me that there was no difference between brand name pills and generic pills, other than the higher price for brand name pills. However, my blood test scores bounced up and down like mountains and valleys. Then I read that we can't take generics because they're all made according to different recipes. Well, that explained the peaks and valleys in my blood tests.
Avatar f tn The problem with pain pills is we all have a "pain threshold" that we build up. Sometimes a "Pain Management" class can also be a valuable tool. I would opt for medical Marajuana, for joint pain, over more addictive narcotics...they have a candy you can suck, etc, here in NorCal. But I wouldn't even take that, on a daily basis.
Avatar f tn I was hoping that someone would be able to suggest some type of pain relief other than acetametaphin or ibuprofen. I am really struggling with the pain in my neck & base of the head. My new Cine-MRI is not until Feb.8 & followup neurosurgeon appt. on Feb.14...started with numbness & tingling under my right arm today & the "foggy",dry, inflammed feeling in my eyes has gotten worse over the last couple of days. Can someone please help me???
