Neck pain due to prolapsed disc 11632...India
A 45-year-old woman who experienced severe pain in the left side of her neck in June 2015, was prescribed oral painkillers and bed rest for 40 days by her physician. She recovered fully but the pain recurred in July 2016 when she was helping her elderly mother-in-law get up from a chair. She went through the same regimen lasting 40 days and once again got complete relief. Since then she practised yoga regularly under the guidance of a teacher and was completely fine. On 3 July 2021, while practising yoga (unsupervised) the neck pain returned, this time on the right side and with greater severity, radiating from the shoulder down to the middle finger. She was not able to do anything with her right arm and could barely lift her hand. An MRI done the same day revealed a prolapsed disc in the cervical region and two compressed nerves. She was advised to continue a few very gentle yoga exercises and prescribed a painkiller which gave her acidity, so she discontinued it. Impressed with significant improvement with vibrionics on two close relatives, she approached the practitioner on 7 July 2021, and was given:
CC18.5 Neuralgia + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC20.5 Spine + CC20.7 Fractures…a dose every 10 minutes for two hours followed by 6TD
Within an hour she reported 50% relief which progressed to 70% in another hour! Later during the day, she was able to use her right hand to eat lunch and use her phone, although there was some discomfort.
Within three weeks by 26 July, she was able to lift her hand without discomfort, with about 80% improvement in pain; dosage was reduced to TDS. On 1 Sept she reported 90% improvement and 100% on 15 Sept. A further reduction to OD was made on 1 Jan 2022 and the dosage tapered off before stopping it on 31 Mar 2022.
As of Dec 2022, she has continued to do well.
