I met with an accident about a month ago and got injury on my left arm. Now the injuries are fine but I feel stiffness and internal pain in my left arm and shoulder area as well as stiffness in fingers of my hands. I can not lift my arm while I get up in the morning. But pain reduces one I start my daily routine and become active. All this happened after accident.
Please suggest me Homoeo medicine for the same. Docor known to me has suggested Homoeo medicine Rhus Tox 1M and Arnika 1M one does daily for one week.
Thanking you sir.
Hi, last September I was diagnosed with Cronic Lyme. Leading up to the diagnosis I had heart palpitations and heart attic symptoms along with dizziness. The Lyme specialist I’m seeing put me on antibiotics after diagnosiing me with Lyme. I’ve been one two different antibiotics for almost 10 months along with a couple of herbal meds. Although they have helped with my dizziness and heart palpitations I now have joint stiffness and pain that I never had before. It’s most prevalent when I’ve been sitting for a while or when I first get up in the morning! The stiffness and pain seams to ease up as I move about.
What can you suggest for homeopathy treatment and can this be taken with antibiotics?
Thanks in advance, Briam

I am Dr. Shyamali Das, Asst. Prof. in Agronomy working in Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya. I am suffering heavily from severe backpain. I consulted with neurologist and I have undergone MRI (report showed L5 vertibra is completely sacralised, posteriot disc herniation is compressing left L5 nerve root , narrowing spinal canal of L5-S1 for L5 sacralisation) and also taking medicine of nerve relief. But my pain is still continuing. I am suffering from 2 month and under medication for one month. One of my senior collegue also had the same prob and he suggested me combined use of Arnica, Hepericum, Ruta and Rhustox 15 drops each at 15 min interval. My age is 37 yrs. The pain is proceeding to right side now and also shooting downwards.
Kindly suggest and guide me
