Hi Doctor,My mother is complaining of Back pain in the left and also a shoulder pain of the left arm. She does not have any pressing pain the chest. But there is a pricking pain in the back. Do I need to take her immediately to the hospital? She is a hyper tension patient and has high BP normally.
DEAR FRIEND I HAVE UNDERSTOOD YOUR CONCERN, AS PER YOUR QUESTION YOU don't NEED TO TAKE HER AT HOSPITAL... PAIN IN BACK MAY BE DUE TO I'm PROPER POSTURE SO THAT SOME STRUCTURE UNDERNEATH MAY BE COMPRESSED SO YOU MAY HAVE PRICKLING TYPE OF PAIN. YOU NEED TO CORRECT POSTURE FIRST. SIT ERECT AND SUPPORTED WITH PILLOW. YOU TAKE ICE MASSAGE OVER THE AFFECTED PART BACK AND SHOULDER... FOR TEMPORARY PAIN RELIEF. YOU SHOULD SOME BASIC ACTIVE FREE EXERCISE OF ARM AND BACK FOR MAINTAINING FLEXIBILITY. IF POSSIBLE TAKE HER TO PHYSIOLOGIC AND SHOULD TAKE IT AND ULTRASOUND THERAPY FOR QUICK PAIN RELIEF.... AFTER 15 DAYS AND POST PAIN RELIEF WE CAN START WITH GRADUAL EXERCISE OF BACK AND SHOULDER.....
