Dear Dr. Sharma,
My father is a heart patient. He underwent the bypass surgery 5 months ago. He had three blocks in his chest. His limbs was getting numb since before he underwent the surgery. Few days before the surgery he took an xray due to this numbness and the x ray revealed that his veins which comes from the neck get tightned to the bone in his neck. This numbness sometimes exist in his arm and chest parts. Sometimes a pain too follows this across his arm, neck and certain places in his chest. This situation too results in breath shortage and some inconvenient when breathing.
PLease specify a remedy on this

Dear Dr. Sharma,
Thank you SO MUCH for this service!
I’m 47 yr. old female and I use my arms and hands constantly!
I have developed a condition especially in my right arm; elbow and down to my pinky finger but also wrist and thumb and even up arm to shoulder and neck. Hand a little stiff on left also, but I’m right handed, so I suspect that’s why it’s worse on that side : )
It’s very stiff – and much weaker! I have really strong hands typically – in the morning and improves once I get moving it. I’ve tried arnica and magnesium with no luck.
I’m considering rhus tox but really not sure.
can you suggest what i need on the basis of this information?
You are so kind.
Thank you

When I use the mouse on the computer my whole hand starts aching.
I hope you can guide me what to do.
