Meniscus
I bruised my left meniscus a few years ago. I have tendonitis on both knees and bursitis on both shoulders. Although I used to do fitness 3 times a week. Now I can´t seem to find a time to exercise and all of them are "killing" me. What should I take to relieve the pain?aidacrc on 2005-01-11

Hi'
bursitis, tendonitis and meniscus are names of the ailment --and homeopathy needs symptoms. The symptom is"they are killing me"---so we can ASSUME they are painful. (and seriously so-enough to scare everyone away--serious cases aren't usually dealt with on-line because nobody wants you to endure pain and painkillers as such are in allopathy.)
What happened when it started?Overstrain?
Two remedies that come to my mind for strained tendons are RHUS-TOXICODENDRON and RUTA GRAVEOLENS-- read about them.
however they are used when the overstrain happened recently (I have no idea if they work after few years)
for chronic case you need chronic remedy (as some call it: a constitutional) and for that you have to write more about yourself:
1. your symptoms: for each write where is it located, how does it look, what do you feel (what kind of pain etc)
what makes it better/worse? anything you can tell us about them.
2.you
are you a chilly or a warm person? What kind of weather you like best/worst?
Any special time of the day?
Your sleep/appetite/thirst? Any cravings/aversions?
dreams?
What angers you most?

Well, I feel better from exercise and pressure. I´m a chilly person and I love hot weather (I live in Brazil, on the shore)> My blood pressure is low (9 / 6) and my feet and hands are always cold. I love afternoons and evenings.
I don´t sleep well and enough. I never feel thirsty and I have cravings on candies (chocolate, ice-cream, carbo in general), fried stuff and snacks. I´m not fat, but I have flabby belly, thinghs and arms. What makes me angry: lazy people and lack of neatness.

Astra wants you to detail your symptoms - where, when they started, type of pain,any swelling or change in appearance,what makes it better or worse.

Bursitis ands tendonitis started a few years ago (my mother´s mother used to have it in Portugal (in the 1950´s), my mother and my sister have it, my brother has it... My meniscus started to hurt when I came back from gym (my instructor forced me lift too much weight). There´s no sweeling, no change outside. The pain is sharp and permanent, worse from bending my knees.

The pain is sharp and permanent. It just improves when I take Meloxicam capsules for 10 - 15 days and exercise with weights...

Hi Aidacrc,
I have been following this thread.
Rhus Tox is the remedy that covers ailments from strain or overlifting, and these complaints are better by movement/exercise.
Usually it works best when the complaints are acute, but you can always try it.
Take 5-6 pills of Rhus Tox 200 for three consecutive nights.
Dont eat/ drink anything atleast half an hour before/ after taking the medicine, and take the medicine on clean tongue.
Please post everyday about any change.
Take care...
