Do a google search on natural remedy for arthritis, Some vitamins help with arthritis pain i read while i was searching for nerve pain narural remedy,
L4 L5 disc replacement in 2004=causing nerve damage'Flexicore disc. 2006 fusion same level leaving adr in. Fusion did nothing to releive the nerve pain.Pain clinic=every injection procedure avalable inc,razadamy, ablation, nerve stimulater trial,morphine pump trial all failed. Pain can be described as burning pain in lower spine penetrating in to left buttock,down left leg. Refuse to take lyrica or nuorontin do to its side effect,Leaving me with norco,valume,and flexiril at night.Which these medications only help with the muscle aches and stiffnes does nothing for the nerve pain from the nerve damage sustained from the adr surgery.Coming up nov.19th 2009 Lami, and hardware removal from fusion,for hardware just causing more pain in other areas.Hardware block comfirmed hardware is also causing pain in diferent area aside from the severe nerve pain on left side.Emg showed some posible problem above surgery are at L3 L4.
Heard things such as tart cherry juice, 12 gin-soaked raisins.. (never tried either).
It,s best to run this by your doctor as certain foods can interact with prescribed meds and you want to make sure there wouldn't be a problem.
I agree 100% with checking with your Mad as to any changes in your diet. When you do, you might ask about glucosimine/condrointin. I have had one total knee and have had painful knees for years. I started on glucos./condro. about 3 years ago and after about a month, the pain started to subside, and I have taken it religiously since. There is still pain but it has been reduced by 75%. Also, studies have shown that if you take G/C for a year,and then stop, the benefits can go on for up to 5 years.I also use a lot of turmeric, as it helps lower inflammation, as do tart red cherries.
Equally as important, is to know what "not to eat" as sugars, some fats, and other foods can exacerbate inflammation.
There is a lot of good data on google but one has to watch that the site isn't pushing a single or series of products, sites addressing the issue with no motivation other than helping with unbiased data afford the best information. The site below is a good read.
