Suggest Remedies For Back Pain And Whiplash
Hi, my back went out last week. I was pulling my three year old and suddenly I could not move or walk. I have both torn shoulder muscles and whiplash for which I was treated by a chiropractor last year. Now I also have pain in my right hip and up my back and my arms. And I have these pinprick sensations in my legs like something is biting me. My right eye is twitching too. Also I have a deviated septum and a lot of congestion (a little now), and chronic bronchitis (not now). I am an art teacher. Every day I take Claritan or else I get sick from my school (mold?). What do you think?

Hi
the problem you are suffering may be Sciatica, where the nerve supplying the lower limb that arises from the spinal cord would have got compressed
limit the movements and apply local diclofenac/muscle relaxant gel
use cold compression
Physiotherapy and MRI advised if you do not get relief in a week
Wish You Good Health
Regards
