Well-tolerated homeopathic painkillers for back pain

The average European spends about seven hours of his waking hours sitting. Desk workers even average 9.6 hours a day. But humans are not made to sit. The increasing immobility disturbs the harmonious interaction of the body parts with each other and leads to dysfunctions between the muscles, bones, tendons and ligaments involved. This can lead to postural deformities with sometimes extremely painful tension that causes back pain.

Active against back pain: More exercise and balanced strain

In order to actively prevent back pain caused by tension, it is important to move more overall and avoid possible incorrect loads. This includes taking the stairs more often instead of the elevator, walking or biking short distances, and slipping on sneakers in your free time instead of picking up the remote control. Relaxation techniques such as yoga, autogenic training or Jacobsen muscle relaxation can also help with tension caused by stress. In addition, the workplace should be designed to accommodate the back and existing excess weight should be reduced.

Do not take it easy!

Acute back pain should always be clarified by a doctor. In most cases, however, there is no serious physical cause behind it, but it is a matter of tension caused by incorrect and excessive stress, which usually disappears by itself. This happens most quickly if everyday activities are maintained and relieving postures are avoided. To facilitate this in the case of acute pain, temporary pain-relieving medications and ointments can be administered. In addition, homeopathy also has well-tolerated medicines available.

Homeopathy for back pain and tension

In addition to homeopathic single remedies, homeopathic combination remedies, especially in the form of ointments, are used to treat back pain and tension.

The following active ingredients have proven particularly effective:

• Arnica montana: Arnica can serve well for back pain caused by overuse of the muscles with sore muscles in the back.

• Nux vomica: The homeopathic medicine from the nux vomica is used when the back pain is caused by stress and an unhealthy lifestyle with mainly sedentary work. Muscle stiffness here causes one to have difficulty turning over in bed.

• Rhus toxicodendron: In case of pulling back pain including radiation into the arm or leg after a herniated disc or due to an awkward movement, the homeopathic remedy from poison ivy can provide relief.

• Bryonia: If the back and neck pain is stabbing and the stiffened muscles are from anger, stress or change in weather, the homeopathic remedy from white bryonia is the right remedy.

• Belladonna: For sudden onset sciatic pain, usually on the right side, that worsens after prolonged sitting, Belladonna may help.

• Calcium carbonicum: If a painful lumbago occurs with weak back muscles due to lifting or unaccustomed physical movement, the administration of Calcium carbonicum can have a positive effect
