What Is The Treatment For Neck Pain?
Hi,
I am a 38 year old female is advised to take Carnisure 500mg tablet once a day. I bought it and the tablet says Levocarnitine tablets. I had a neck pain and later noticed my hand is weak, cannot lift any weight. When i check details about this tablet, I found it is used for fertility treatment. Can you please advice how it works for my issue.

Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms.
Carnisure (levocarnitine) is not recommended for your problem.
The likely cause in your case seems to be nerve compression in the neck region, which can lead to neck pain as well as weakness and numbness of hands.
The diagnosis can be confirmed by doing an MRI scan of the cervical spine. So, you should consult your neurologist and discuss these issues.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
