They are a piece of cake compared to a Electromygraphy exam...

I see a chiropractor. hes really good and has helped me to go from not being able to get out of bed to being able to walk around. I have also seen an acupuncturist and to my disbelief she help my back get to a point where my chiro was able to make an adjustment.
for temporary relief I used a product called "Cryoderm" to help with the pain.

I got pinched nerves in my back from time to time during my baseball days. The only remedy for me was to keep it warmed up with heat and to see a chiropractor.

Cortisone, Darvocet-N and Soma - in any combination to include all three - :-)

Fixes up all my aches and pains. A few months ago had a cortisone shot to fix up a sciatic nerve that was damn near crippling me to where I couldn't even walk. Went bowling two days after that shot.

Wish it came in six-packs!

Only thing that sucks about it is that it is so temporary.

I had a TENS and didn't really pay attention to the Dr. when he gave me directions.
Went home and started using it.
Day by day, I found myself cranking it up a notch.
Eventually, I went back to the Dr. and told him the darn thing didn't work very well any longer.
Turns out I got numb to it and had it at a level that should have had me jumping, yet I got use to it. They took it away from me.:-):-):-)

Tried Tens once, forgot what setting Dr. said to start at...went the highest and bam......twiched so badI could'nt turn it off!!:-):-)

A good chiro, ice, and Ibuprofin. As others said a good chiro is sometimes hard to find. Mine is my former neighbor, great guy. Best of luck.
