Dr. Nawaz,
AoA,

I am taking the prescribed medicine from 2 days. I see only 20% improvement in my buttock pain. The left calf still feels like too much stiffed while walking. I can't raise my left leg using my buttock joint comfortably by keeping knee locked.

Please guide further, should I continue with the medicine?

BTW what is the cause of my pain .. is it due to Sciatica?

JazakAllahu_khairan,
Imtiyaz

One more thing I wanted to mention is that I am having acidity since I started the medicine.

Jazak_allah Dr. Nawaz,

I will continue with the medicine and will report back after 2 days.

Wassalam

AoA Dr. Nawaz,

I have completed the prescribed medicine course ( Colocynthis 200C, 4 drops in water, 2 times for 4 days) yesterday and have stopped taking it since yesterday. I see around 40% improvement in my pain and the range of movements.

Please advice further.

JazakAllah,

One more thing I would like to mention is that my acidity problem. I usually get strong acidity in the evenings and nights. Sometimes I wake in early hours because of acidity pain in my chest which normally goes away with an ENO sachet. Due to this acidity many times my throat becomes sore and I get throat infection very often.

Please advice further.

AoA Dr. Nawaz,

JazakAllah khair,

I will start the colocynthis again as per your prescription.

The acidity problem is worst after lunch that is in the evening and in the night time.
I don't feel heartburn in the morning .. never.
If I drink any soft-drink like Pepsi, 7UP etc, then the following night will become a nightmare for me. After taking any of the soft-drink, I will have to wake up at least 3 times during the night and then I have to take ENO etc. Hence I have stopped drinking any of the soft-drinks since 4 months.

Today, I was feeling very acidic and hence started 'Nixocid' from now.

Kindly advice if that is ok to continue.

No, I don't feel nausea and there is no water in the mouth. It feels like pain in the chest and throat. sometimes it is flatulence and sometimes the pain goes till the upper back (peeth).

Since few days I am seeing white phlegm in the morning which usually comes out easily with coughing.

AoA Dr. Nawaz,

I have completed the prescribed medicine course ( Colocynthis 200C, 4 drops in water, 2 times for 3 more days) today.
I still feel pain while bending over and lifting my foot with knees locked in my buttock.

My acidity issue is better with Nixocid (2 times 3 pills after meals).

Please advice further.

JazakAllah,
Imtiyaz

overall 50% improvement in pain, but very negligible improvement in stiffness.

AoA Dr. Nawaz,

I have taken the Calc. Phos 30C for 3 days. Stiffness has reduced to 50% (Alhamdullillah).
Now I can see the improvement in stiffness and pain too.

overall 70% better.

Kindly advice further.

Wassalam

Jazaka_allah khair Dr. Nawaz,

I will Insha_allah continue with the same remedy for 4 more days. Will report after 4 days.

Wassalam,
Imtiyaz
