Lower back pain.
For the last one week my lower back feels tired and ache every now and then especially while sitting on a chair.On a couple of occasion the pain spread to the knee and had needle like feeling on my right toes.I am a 50 yr old male 70 kg physically active. I slow jog or brisk walking on most days before going to work occasional cycle and have been doing this for many years with no problem.
I am not on any medication and have 100% switched to homeopathy for the last 4 years. Last medication was tummy upset during Ramadan Fasting where Nux 200 and Pulsatilla 200 fixed the problem. Frequent Business travel caused changed in diet and hectic business activities led to some sleeping disorder in mid Nov 2007 where Nux 200 and Suphur 200 ( one dose) fixed the problem.
Last couple of weeks I have been very hectic , busy worrying to achieve busness targets before the year ends. I have also increased my physical sports activites in the morning . The weather has been wet and damp and is typical year end monsoon season. I have tried Lyco 30 and Rhus Tox 30 3x a day for the last 4 days based on my local heomopath advice. There were some improvement but the lower back dull pain came back especially if the weather is damp. I have also got my Urologist to scan me and gave a thumbs up. Stool is normal and I get good sleep even though I frequently in last one week got agitated and angry in my day to day business chores.I drive the business hard and I hate loosing.
Please help me if I need to try something else.
Thanks

Thanks Dr Mahfooz.
Just a question. What duration is the gap between doses and do I have to complete the 6 doses ie 3 Kali Carb 30 and 3 Cimicifugua 30 in alternate, all in one day ?
Thanks

Dr Mahfooz,
Thanks for your reply. May be its my english, just to be sure that i have got it right. 2nd dose is 4 hrs after the first, 3rd dose is 4 hrs after the 3rd etc etc. and this may cross into day 2 to complete the 6 doses.
Thank you and sorry for asking too much.

The alternation of medicines is bad for two reasons.
1)Each medicine has its specific effect on the patient, and it is not advisable to give a new medicine before the action of the previous medicine gets exhusted.
2) In case the problem gets resolved for a shorter period and comes back again, the same alternation may fail to help next time, and we will be picking our brains in vain as to what to do.
3) If a single medicine is tried, and the problem resurfaces we have various options like increasing the potency, going for a split dose etc..
If you want to try out medicines empirically, the best thing to do is try them one after the other, if need be.
To me it looks like a 'dulcamara' case.
