What Is The Relief For Severe Muscle Spasms?
I was in a car accident 9 months ago. Was getting better but chiropractor tried doing triggers and now have muscle spasms (severe). Even hydrocodone and muscle relaxers don t help much. Am scheduled to see a pt for possible acupuncture. How can I get relief until my apt.? I have tried rolling a tennis ball on trigger spots but they don t release trigger spots. I drink half my body weight in water.

Apply hot pack on ur muscle spasm for 10 minutes then palpate the muscle spasm and take kneading on it & do some retraction & Range of motion exercises. If the pain due to spasm is severe visit a physio & take ultrasound therapy
