Injured my back before Christmas (OJI) . Meds relieved the back pain but now my sciatic nerve is killing me. Dr. has me on some NSAIDS and I have been doing some pelvic tilts and other stretches which have helped some. Any more suggestions?

Have the same problem on and off. If you access to a hot tub, then do some stretching once your in it. If not, then take a 10 minute hot soak in the bath tub and then do some stretching right after you get out. I also use some rub on cold/hot balm and it helps. Actually, the very best thing on top of these is just walking. Take care, hope these help.

I had been going through serious back pain the last 6 months, up until a couple of months ago. My wife put me in Flexcin with CM8.
Flexcin w/CM8

It takes a few weeks to really start seeing the difference, but it has provided a DRAMATIC improvement!

Good stuff.

If it still hurts find some one who knows how to "pop" your hips.After a back injury last year the neve pain had me all but crippled.Old dude at church laid me on the floor and popped both hips,made for a interesting service ! -felt just like if you pulled your finger to crack it.Then REAL bedrest.
Note: He is a retired physical therapist.

Back pain makes you walk out of line -walking out of line jams up you hips -they pinch nerve -poping/pulling the hip slightly out of socket relives pressure and allows them to 'fall' back in place -then real rest to let the ligaments retighten in the correct position the hips
