The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Trapezius muscle just beneath the shoulder pulled

Dear All,

This is the first time I am writing to any homeopathic forum for the help, I hope to get a satisfactory answer.

Every now and then my middle trap muscle is pulled just beneath the right shoulder, sometime beneath the left shoulder as well. and this happens more often in the winter, as a result I feel mild pain (sometime severe pain) and neck movement becomes difficult.

Usually I take pain killer for this, but I am not satisfied, can a doctor help me in this regard.



Thanks
Muhammad Asad

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
homeopathic medicine for pulled muscles is Rhus tox. you can take it in 30 potency 3 times a day for one day whenever you pull a muscle .

Thanks for the quick reply, I have ordered the medician on a nearby store.

Does Rhus Tox work like a pain killer or differently.
I mean is there a medician which strengthens the muscles?
 
Muhammad Asad 9 years ago
it doesn't work like a pain killer. it repairs strained muscles.

Dear Telescope,

On that day I took 3 doses of Rhus Tox 30 for just one day, and got a bit relief after couple of days.

Yesterday morning as I Got up, it was a bit cold, I again pulled/cramped my muscle, but on the left side this time, and also a severe one, I m not able to rotate my neck towards left so much so that I could not see my left shoulder.

I took 3 doses of Rhus Tox 30 every 45 minutes, then 1 dose in the evening but felt no relief at all.

Then I talked to a friend and took Rhus Tox 200 in the night.

I have just taken 2nd dose of Rhus Tox 200 as I m writing this, also feeling a little relieved,

How do you see this case and what do you suggest?
 
Muhammad Asad 9 years ago
rhus tox in your case will relieve but cannot cure. for permanent cure you will have to undergo constitutional treatment. if you wish permanent solution I will post a questionnaire.

take only one dose Sulphur 200 in the morning. do not eat or drink sour things. do not use any other medicine. do not repeat medicine. report after 7 days.
 
telescope 9 years ago
Dear Telescope,

Thanx for your time and consideration, I have just taken sulfur 200 dose, I was outstation and could not see your reply in time.

For last 4 days, I have taken 1 dose of Arnica 200 daily, the pulled muscle on the left side is OK now, but but a little stiffness is still there.

I will update you after 7 days and won't take any other medician till then.
 
Muhammad Asad 9 years ago
I have taken it in the night at 10 pm is it OK or something went wrong?
 
Muhammad Asad 9 years ago
taking sulphur at night causes sleeplessness in some people . that is why it is generally given during the day. however in emergencies it can be used any time.
 
telescope 9 years ago
Dear Telescope,

It has been 8th day since I took sulphur 200 dose.

The pain of the pulled muscles had already relieved by Rhus Tox 30, and Arnica 200 (as I told you that I took them before your advice of sulfur 200), but stiffness was still there.

During the last week muscle pain has vanished, and there is no pain on moving the neck or pressing.

Contraction in the muscle of back neck and beneath the shoulder is felt when I bend my head forward or backward or when bent to the right/left to stretch the muscles.

Other Thing I have noted is the change of urine color from white to yellowish (no burning) , this may also be because the temperature has raised from 26/27 degree to 31 degree during the last week.

Kindly suggest the further medicine.
 
Muhammad Asad 8 years ago
normal colour of urine is like straw. watery urine is suggestive of some problem. take one more dose of sulphur 200 one month after the last dose.
 
telescope 8 years ago
Dear Telescope,

Thanks for your advice.

Couple of problems to mention


1
==

One thing which I forgot to mention is that I have the issue of mucous presence/falling in my throat (colorless, slightly thicker than saliva and remain sticked to the roof of the throat which I have to drag/squeeze down to expel it) ,due to which the throat remains little greasy and sometimes becomes sour as well.

although this is a chronic issue but it was too minor to note or to irritate me, but lately this issue is increasing a little, kindly suggest and advice for this issue.



2
==

For last 6 months I have been feeling a little pain in my left wrist, the pain is minute one and appears on rotating the writs or bending the hand backwards.


I hope to listen from you soon.

let one week pass. the problems may get well from the sulphur you had already taken. if they do not improve only then you may take new medicine.

Dear Telescope,

2 days ago the muscles beneath both shoulders are pulled and with more intesity, when I m laying on the bed I m not able to take my head up, and it feels like there is a pain in the vertebrae as well.

This started as I was in the computer data center where it was chill inside, I sat there for half an hour and the muscles had pulled before I left the room.

Please suggest the remedy
 
Muhammad Asad 8 years ago
take rhus tox 30 three doses per day ( morning , noon, evening) for three days. please collect Calcarea Carb 1 m for future use.
 
telescope 8 years ago
Thanx, Telescope, I hope to get rid of this issue permanently.
.
I would like to ask if there is any medician which can strengthen muscle like traditional multivitamins.
 
Muhammad Asad 8 years ago
Hi Muhammad,

Another way to help this is to take great care about
your neck. Sleep on your back with a good neck support. Make sure you do something like take a
fast walk for at least 30 minutes a day, bc this
promotes blood flow and flexibility to all the muscles.

Watch that you are not doing repetitive motions, like
reading in bed, looking down at a phone over and over,
have the computer screen at eye level.Keep something
with you if you are going into a chilled area. Don't sit for more than 30 minutes without getting up and
standing for a few minutes.

Over time, many people younger than you start
having these problems due to repetitive motions
and not moving enough to get the blood flowing well.

Dear Telescop,

Rhus Tox 30 doe not seem to be working this time, as the muscles on the both side are strained, stiff and painfull and taking Rhus Tox 30 for almost 2 days did not give any relief.
My movement is very limited, please advice.
 
Muhammad Asad 8 years ago
take sulphur 200 one dose again. avoid sour food and drinks.
