sternocleidomastoid problems


[nh...]

Recommended Posts

hey nhbuck,

 

same here.

 

All my weakness, nerve pain, muscle tissue and pins and needles have been exclusively left sided.

 

I go to a physical therapist for a massage and exercises every 2 weeks. I ALWAYS have a trigger point on the left sternocleidomastoid. It causes my neck to become stiff and left my shoulder, biceps and neck to hurt like crazy.

 

The therapist let me know a few months ago that it is not normal to have those issues every time I go to therapy, specially after weeks of massages and exercise, but hey we do know it's Benzos.

 

Hang in there.

You can probably find cold laser treatments at some chiropractors. No prescription needed and the treatment is relatively inexpensive. The laser goes deep into the tissues and promotes healing to damaged joints, muscles and nerves. I was extremely skeptical but my wife talked me into it and it has worked better than I could have imagined.  :)--V
