Dog disc injury

Hi all, I'm new to the site and looking for some advice about my dog. He's a 7yr old cavalier king charles, generally anxious of other dogs - except when they're on the TV, when he goes mad barking and jumping up at the screen! He's friendly with most people but nervous with children. He dribbles a lot when nervous, particularly in the car.
2 days ago I think a box must have fallen on him as when I got home he wasn't using his right leg and the box was on the floor. Took him to the vet this morning who said it's probably a disc injury. Was thinking of giving him some arnica and/or hypericum but was wondering if anyone had a more constitutional suggestion. He likes most food, particularly egg, tea, meat and fish. He's very playful although will not give something up if he thinks it's rightfully his. He has a bit of a temper occasionally - can snap at the vet or at us if we're trying to e.g. clean his eyes.

Many thanks in advance,

Jo.

ya give him arnica that is good for any injury.
hypericum i do not have an idea but my homeo vet had prescribed that for a nervous problem in my bird, but it can have different uses too. try giving in small dose of 30c or even less if u want to try. im not a doc there wud be sum1 arnd who would advise u. But my vet had told me to give arnica for any injury & better if given immediately.
good luck with ur dog

Thanks so much, that's great. I have given him the arnica so fingers crossed! Dr Savaravan has also replied and advised Rescue Remedy in addition to arnica.
