Back troubles (Dr. Deoshlok or Rishimba PLEASE)

Hi,

My mother is having a lot of troubles with her back and I would like to help her so I'm posting her history here.

Sex: F. Age: 53.

She gave birth to five children between 1983-1993. During 1985 she got lymbago for the first time and since then her back has been weak and she has been having back troubles constantly. Two years ago she got the diagnosis slipped disc, wear on the vertebra,and on the skeleton.

The doctor told her that her back may have become weak because of her pregnancies. The doctor didn’t want to operate her and told her to wait and see if it would heal by itself which it also did. But the back trouble is now back again with pain in one of the legs and on the other leg the foot went numb.

She got an appointment with the doctor again but as she has problems to move and walk, I wonder if maybe there’s something she can take in the meanwhile to solve this problem or at least make it a little bit better.

take RHUS TOX 30C some three times a day for some days.

once a little relief is felt, reduce the frequency to once a day till you get a significant relief is felt.
 
rishimba last decade
Thank you! Is there anything she should avoid using Rhus tox? Will this solve her stomach problems also?
 
mouminah last decade
it should take care of all her problems.

give her simple diet. no coffee, excess salt, sour or sugar.

if the 30c potency doesnt give her full relief, you can give her 200c potency once a day in the morning.
 
rishimba last decade
Is it OK if she takes paracetamol in the meantime? She has so much pain.
 
mouminah last decade
better not to take painkillers..but if the pain is unbearable it cant be helped.

but when the pain in unbearable, you may also take arnica 30c in quick intervals.
 
rishimba last decade
She started taking rhus tox on thursday and her stomach got much better. The back still didn't get better, but maybe it's on the way? She is telling me she's getting headache, feels nauseous and tired but very calm. What do you think? Is it the right medication and should she keep on her 3 doses/day or only take 1 now when she has seen improvement with her stomach?
 
mouminah last decade
once the improvement has set in..please reduce the frequency to once a day for some days more.

if the back pain doesnt get reduced, check with 3 doses of 200C potency at 4 hours interval.

come back if you dont get any relief with 200c and we will try to prescribe an alternate remedy.
 
rishimba last decade
Is it normal to have diarrhea out of eating rhus tox everytime she eates some kind of?
 
mouminah last decade
its not normal to have diarrhoea out of RHUS TOX.

I agreed with the opinion of Dr.rishimba, please take Rhus Tox-200. However, Mag.Phos 6x seems to be useful only for pain.
