A homoeo cure for low back ache

Over exertion during the final stages of my PhD thesis at IIT Bombay from 1998 to 2004 and sitting for long periods of times without exercising, probably led to the start of my low backache in 2003 immediately after submission of my pre-synopsis in May 2003.. While I am perfectly healthy in all other aspects of my life, the low backache, it affects the Sciatica nerve, has been bothering me. On recurrence of symptoms, I took Ayurveda treatment in May 2007, Allopathic treatment in 2011 and 2015.


Most recently I had a recurring bout due to cold weather in November 2021.  Incapacitated and on bed, this time I called my sister-in-law, Shirley, a homoeo doctor practicing in Kochi. She prescribed the medicine Rhus Tox to be taken every two hours, besides Arnica daily thrice and Ruta, daily once.

Surprisingly I should say, the pain disappeared and of late I also have added confidence that I have got the correct medication and can emerge healthy out of this seventeen year ordeal against low back ache. 

Besides my daily back stretching exercises, I continue the best exercise for the human body walking, (have even given away a good car and use an 8 year old Nano of my son) have also started daily exercising using  Resistance rubber tubes for back stretching and  Abdomen muscle building roller wheels through Amazon India. So far, so good ..

The problem with such issues is that one tends to lose the self confidence they have in themselves. Over seventeen years, I always felt a missing piece that kept going off my hands, but this time , I am bent on regaining it. 
 
I have regained the lost confidence of all these years and can focus on regaining the lost seventeen years of my life ..
