Pain

I woke up with a sore neck and tightness all over my shoulders today. Some days are pain free but most days are not. It's been like this for over 8 years from a nasty car accident many years ago. I took 3 Advil and tons of vitamins (like magnesium for muscles & Cod liver oil for bones) this morning and the pain is manageable right now but some day

sorry to hear about the pain.
i was in a really nasty car accident a while back so i know what you mean. that and i was so physically active growing up my bones all hurt now... =(

i used to go to get acupunctures and they work miracles. however, you have to be careful who you go to. some people claim they know what they're doing but they're totally clueless. if you go and you walk out in more pain then when you went in, don't ever go back. acupuncture is not suppose to hurt!

My friend went to one and she told me that the needles hurt her. She also paid over $300 for some black tea medicine that taste like shit, but she says she's feeling much better.. don't know. I'm torn, but I'm willing to try anything right now.

hey girly. you know my situation- bad car accident when i was 8 and i still have chronic back pain. my advice is this: if you have health insurance, you can qualify for medical theraputic massages. you'll have to get referred by your regular doc, but once you do, the copay is really cheap. acupuncture really helps, but it usually takes awhile for it to have some noticeable difference.

i hope you feel better!

I usually don't like massages. It feels good, but I just want a cure..
