RE: An experience with nerve compression
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
This really speaks to me. My 86 year old mother is having constant, serious nerve pain after hip surgery. It's made her immobile, which in turn compounds the pain. And she's refusing medication. Not sure how to help her, since SHE has to do the exercise, massage etc to relieve the compression herself.
Personally I've had superb results - long term relief and healing - with acupuncture. And with Near Infra Red Light. Pain free every day!!

Unfortunately, we don't have such service around here. The whole issue is weighing me down tbh. It is one thing to get the surgery funds, it is another thing for the surgery to be issues free.
So true. My 62 year old Dutch cousin - 2 artificial hips, 2 artificial knees - is currently in hospital due to a botched surgery to free a trapped nerve. She's very overweight and expects the surgeries to be miraculous without understanding how her lifestyle and choices help create this disaster.
Sigh.
Unfortunately, she's not the only person that will be facing the consequences of the lifestyle and choices. It directly or indirectly impact the lives of those around her. It is important to always caution family members over their lifestyle choices. I did with my sister and here we are.
sigh Caution about the health consequences of obesity is something few overweight people want to hear.
