The worst part of the back pain is that it
stabs you from the back. You can't see the area of the back pain. Some
areas, you can't even touch. Touching the pain area does not get you the
cure, but you do get some psychological relief!
With the strained backside, virtually you are unable to do simple
activities, like reading a book or newspaper. You just moan, unable to
bear the pain. Some one has to help you to apply therapeutic oil or balm
in the affected area.
Back pain is one of the frequent complaints
relating to the Computer Age. Those who sit and work in a particular
posture, with no or a little physical activity often complain of back
pain. That is for the simple reason that you demand too much from a
particular part of the body, leaving other parts high and dry. As per
the statistics, over 65 million people suffer from back pain in the USA
alone.
Though there are many over the counter medications for the
back pain in general, you can't say that it is your medicine as well.
The cause and specific conditions relating to the back pain vary from
individual to individual. On the basis of your specific complaints and
indications, the health care professional will advise you about the line
of treatment.
Different types of medicines have different types
of approach to tackle the back pain. The medicines which contain natural
ingredients do it this way. They help to free the spots of inflammation
by removing the toxins and impurities from near the spine, shoulders and
neck.
When this is done, blood flow to that area is increased,
which hurries the process of healing. The anti-inflammatory agents help
to reduce soreness, discomfort and burning pain in the affected areas.
Natural ingredients promise long term soothing relief.
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs like aspirin and ibuprofen
work in a different way. They help to reduce the inflammation and pain
significantly, even when you suffer from acute pain. But the common side
effect of this type of medication is that they cause gastrointestinal
upset.
The third category of medicines to treat
back pain consists of those drugs that act as analgesic, and they are
meant for acute pain. But the side effects are quite harmful like liver
and kidney damage. Therefore, analyze and think properly, whether these
are medications or poison!
Medical practitioners, sometimes,
prescribe opioids for back pain patients, and they must be having
reasons for taking such drastic steps. These medicines can be habit
forming.
Well, Massage therapy and Acupuncture are one of the
most successfully tried and accepted treatment for back pain. These
along the medicines can do wonders for you.
Finally, any back
pain treatment needs to be in accordance of the nature and cause of your
back pain.
