Hello, I have tried chronic pain clinics, some strong meds, accupuncture, exercise, etc and still have lumbar spine back pain that greatly limits my function. I have bulging discs in L4 and L5 with spinal stenosis. Has anyone had any luck with anything alternative? Your honest replies greatly appreciated, THANKS :)

What are some alternatives to medicine for menstrual cramps?

I don’t want to take midol or tylenol (even if it might work). I just want to ease the pain for now. What could I do? Any type of food I could eat or something I could drink?

And don’t suggest a hot water bottle, because I can’t have one.

When it clearly does not work. Religious people won’t take their kids to the doctor, and would pray for their healing rather than getting accurate treatment.

These are the same parents that don’t give the kids vaccines and shots because the kid might get Autism even when there is no link between the two.
