I am limited as to what meds I can take (severe allergies) and NSaids(bleeding issues) but have tried with pretty good results, Tea Tree (skin infections) Reikei for managing my pain from a MVA 7 yrs ago, and yoga
I had a mis-diagnosed lipoma on my back. My symptom was pain. I was diagnosed with dorsal nerve root compression and prescribed 800 mg Motrin tid. It did very little to relieve the pain. I had one treatment at the acupuncturist and the pain was relieved. The pain did not return for several years at which time a correct diagnoses was made and the lipoma was surgically removed.
