How Can Back And Hiatus Hernia Pain Be Relieved?
Hi, my mother is suffering from very bad lower back pain. I ve given her tiger balm to run into the area as well as hot patches. She has a large hiatus hernia the size of most her stomach and is prone to kidney infections but is ok on they at the moment. Is there anything she can do to relieve the shooting darts of pain?

I UNDERSTOOD YOUR CONCERN, SHE NEEDS TO BE CORRECT HER POSTURE FIRST.. BECAUSE MOST OF THE PROBLEMS GENERATES FROM THAT ONLY... OTHER THAN THIS SHE HAS HERNIA SO OBVIOUSLY HER ABDOMINAL MUSCLES WILL BE WEAK ONLY SO TRY TO DO MINIMAL EXERCISES TO STRENGTHEN THOSE MUSCLES SO THAT COORDINATION BETWEEN BACK AND ABDOMINAL MUSCLE MAY BE THERE... YOU CAN GO TO PHYSIOTHERAPY CENTER TO LEARN ALL EXERCISES.... FOR INSTANT RELIEF APPLY ICE OR VOLINI ANALGESIC GEL .
