Dr. Joe De Livera, please help ( lower back muscular pain)

Dr,

I am a software programmer.
I am suffering from back pain and stiffness since 2 weeks. It started automatically when I was doing my routine work on my laptop at home. Initially when it started, it was stopping me to stand straight. I was feeling some weakness in my lower back. After doing some hot water fermentation and taking an OTC painkiller with the muscles relaxant it relaxed a bit. After 2 days, I was able to stand straight and even now I can stand and even run. I usually go for light jogging in the morning.

My details are :

Age : 30 years
Sex : Male
Occupation : Software Engineer
Diet : usually balanced with veg and non-veg
Habits : No cigrette, Pan or alcohol
Weight : 90
Height : 5' 9'

PROBLEM :- Even after 3 weeks, I am feeling stiffness and pain in my lower back. I feel it is like a spasm or muscles cramp. Please help me with a proper medication with details like how to take and at what intervals and whether it is liquid or pills.

Thanks,

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.

Since it seems to be muscular and hot fermentation relief you, therefore, please take Mag. Phos6x (4 grain per dose with a cup of warm milk/tea 4/5 times a day) and continue it for a week.

Doctors,

I am taking MagPhos 6X since one week 4 tablets 4 times daily. I feel only 15% to 20% improvement. Still I feel stiffness in my lower back which is more in the morning after a wake up but gradually decreases to some extent after 2 hours or so.

Please suggest me further medications and details on how to take them.

Thanks,
Imtiyaz

To Imtiyaz

The remedy I would like to prescribe is Arnica 30c in the Wet dose which is made as per instructions below. Arnica has the ability of improving the circulation of blood by a process of filtering it and it will help to relieve your stiffness in your back.

Add the Arnica to the Mag Phos you are taking and report response.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

Thank you doctor Livera.

I have 2 questions.
First question is, should I ask for 'Arnica 30C' or 'Arnica' in the liquid/alcohol form at the homeopathic shop?

Second question is, how many times should I take this wet dose (1 capfull of the diluted mixture) in a day? Currently I am taking MagPhos 6X 4 times daily.

You can order the Arnica 30c in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol.

You will take a capful of the remedy twice daily.

My apologies for not indicating the dosage through an oversight.

Thanks Dr. Livera,

After taking Arnica 30c for around 1 week twice daily in wet dose, my stiffness and pain has reduced to around 80%.

Please let me know if I need to continue with Arnica 30c or any other medicine.

Thanks.

Glad to note that you have experienced 80% improvement in your stiffness and I also presume that the pain you reported has also been helped.

You can continue with the Arnica twice daily for a month and then reduce it to once taken nightly just before bed for the rest of your life.

You are expected to return to your original exercise routine to maintain the level of fittness that you had before your current complaint.

You must drink at least 3 ltrs of water throughout the day.

Thanks Dr. Livera,

I will continue with the medicines you have prescribed.
Please let me know should I stop taking MagPhos 6X which I am currently taking 4 times 4 tablets daily?

Thanks

I was not aware that you were taking as many as 4 tablets Mag Phos (MP) 6x 4 times daily although I had requested you to continue with it in addition to the Arnica.

I did notice that you had stated that the MP did not help you for a week when you reported some improvement. You will note that Mahfooz had prescribed the MP for just a week and it is almost 3 weeks since it was prescribed.

In any case 16 tablets Mag Phos 6x daily can be considered as an overdose and although it is not harmful you can stop the MP and continue with the Arnica 30c in the manner indicated above.
