653169 tn?1303446369 Had 2 days off work, thinking this was a temporary injury. My doctor prescrbed Diclofenac and I went back to work the next day. I had my 1st tablet the night before, then the 2nd on mid morning break at work. I was sat in my car, guarding a farm gate for site personnel, (light duties), Wthin 10 minutes, I guess that 2nd tablet was the one that really kick-started the course of tablets....with my car door open, (hot day) I ended sort of upside down!

Avatar n tn It is uncomfortable to turn my head from side to side. My lower back and shoulders have been achy, which comes and goes. New symptoms are cramps in lower legs and achy calves. I do read alot and have my head down but this has never happened before and I have been reading all my life. I do spend several hours a day on the computer but don't feel that is it. I take something for anxiety, so that is not it. I am 64 and in good health maybe a little over weight. (aren't we all). lol.

222267 tn?1253302210 I broke my back 2 years ago (L4) and since have had pain from my lower back to my knees. I can pop my right hip very loud. The pain feels like it's in my joints. Like I have arthritis. I can barely exercise because my back will go out completely. I run on a trampoline. I'm 29, not overweight (average) and the pain is unbearable at times. I have done physical therapy and my neurologist basically told me there was nothing to do. I take a lot of ibprofen morning and night..

Avatar n tn I would like to know what other pain killers are available for osteoarthritis. I have been on diclofenac for months for osteoarthritis of the knee and degenerative disk disease. I have tried to stop it several time due to concerns that I may get a GI bleed, have a stroke.... but this seems to be the only medication I have found that helps.
Avatar n tn I've been having lower back pain for a while now. It used to be only when I laid down and then the pain would only last like 5-10 min. However these days the pain occurs longer and it even occurs when I'm sitting. I also play the saxophone. I've played it for 5 years and I have never had breathing problems...however these days I've been having trouble breathing and I've sometimes been having chest pain that stays for a while.
Avatar n tn ve hard from my friend this is perfect for any serious back pain, especially for lower back.
521502 tn?1212136155 I suffer with degeneration of the disk disease, therefore I am used to a little discomfort from time to time, however. Five days ago the discomfort feeling turned nasty; I have increased & unbearable chronic lower back pain, shooting pain down to my ankle, I cannot stand for no longer than 5 seconds without wanting to collapse and die, I have been laying down on the floor for 5 days; from morning to afternoon and from afternoon to night,all the way to the morning, it is groundhog day.
Avatar m tn I have a muscle pain on my shoulder that it doesn't let me sleep. It hurts no matter how I lie to sleep. I have taken some pills that are not strong enough to take the pain away. I think I need the strong stuff like diclofenac and B12 and b6. There is a pills called OKA B that I use to take when having muscle pain and it took pains away. But I've heard that diclofenac is not good to take during tx. Has anyone taken diclofenac during tx or is it too bad for the liver.
Avatar f tn What does it mean to have massive pain in the back of your head and neck that also causes dizziness and slight fainting?
Avatar f tn For 7 weeks I have been experiencing pain. It first started off on my right side back - kidney area. (original diagnosis kidney stones). I was prescribed Dicofenac (3 a day) and antibiotics (for 1 week). Urine tests had found blood traces in my urine. I was booked in for an ultrasound to see if there were any stones. Ultrasound on kidneys and bladder came back OK.
1204528 tn?1588786333 You are correct. The usual interactions suggest a decrease in levels of the other drugs taken with carbamazepine. Try searching for 'carbamazepine metabolism' and 'diclofenac metabolism'. It shows that both meds are metabolized by CYP3A4. Diclofenac may decrease levels of CYPA4 (search 'diclofenac inactivation CYP3A4); this could potentially lead to increased levels of carbamazepine.
Avatar m tn organ sonogram (liver, kidneys, pancreas, etc.) was normal. lower back MRI showed 2 herniated disks, which can explain lower back and hip pain (i have another followup appointment for this tomorrow). also had an endoscopy procedure which revealed two minor ulcers and samples were taken. whole last week was pretty much fine, aside from some abdominal discomfort, barely noticeable or no nausea, good appetite, no dizziness, but still constant intestinal movement and gases, no abdominal pain.

Avatar f tn I have had pain for 4 weeks now. Originally diagnosed as kidney stones. I was put on antibiotics for a week on day 4 and booked in for an ultra sound. I was also given diclofenac to help with the pain. Avo upper data later the pain did not get better. I went back to the doctors and they weren't sure it was a kidney stone. Occasionally pain worsened on some days. Was prescribed codeine for when I needed it. I continued having pain and was signed off work. I only had fever on day 2.
Avatar f tn Upper right abdominal pain can be caused by biliary colic, cholecystitis(inflammation of gall bladder), irritable bowel syndrome, hepatitis(inflammation of the liver), kidney stones, pneumonia, musculoskeletal pain,lower rib fracture and malignancy.Irritation of the nerves supplying this area can also cause pain.Irritation can be due to nerve compression or pinching due to any spine related pathology.
Avatar n tn Please note that I was taking Diclofenac Natrium tablets twice a day for 4 days for knee pain just before getting tested. Is it possible by any chance that the diclofenac being a pain killer, could have suppressed the bacteria for syphilis/clamydia/gonorreah from being detected? Thanks in advance !

880900 tn?1467270141 Hi folks! Have any of you used Diclofenac or Voltarin Gel for relief from general pain on thighs, etc.(and other large areas ... LOL? What was your experience? Did it actually relieve any of your pain? I've used the tablet form, but it made me sick to my stomach. Is this likely to do the same? Thanks for your help.
Avatar n tn yup inteks - the codeine and lack of physical activity from the back injury - that poor lady may wanna step down from the Tylenol 3. My tummy hurt just from reading that case history...lol.
Avatar n tn Opioids do not reduce inflammation but instead attach to mu-opioid receptors located discreetly throughout the body in the brain, spinal cord, and other tissues to relieve many types of chronic pain, surgical pain, and acute pain by blocking pain signals from being realized by the brain. Combining an NSAID with an opioid produces a synergistic effect that may provide additional pain relief than one or the other taken by itself.
