Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having severe pain in my comic bone from laying in a hospital bed for a few days. I have a narrow spinal canal which causes pain if I sit out lay on it too long. I am home now. Should I use heat or ice? I also have fibromyalgia. Pain meds do not help this type of pain. It flairs up occasionally. I ve had it my whole life. Very tender. I also fell off a horse when I was a teenager. I have had MRI and injection. It is something I just have to live with. This is the first time it has bothered me in this much in years. What would you suggest heat or ice? Thanks
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
With such presentations in my clinic, I would firstly advise you To do new MRI,wear lumbosacral belt,avoid prolonged sitting, Receive muscle relaxant and finally I suggest heat and warm fomentation will be helpful for you .
