Is there any treatment or 'trigger points' for pain that radiates across the upper back?
I was in a car wreak 23 years ago, and went to have an exam because I was having some neck pain. They told me I didn’t have any fractures. A few weeks later I noticed my arm and hand had gone numb. I went back to the medics and the diagnosis was “spinal stenosis“ and that I shouldn’t ask anyone to try to fix it. I’ve been living with it but I drop stuff. I tried chiropractic; with no success. I’ve adjusted but it is still a nuisance.

Opiate agreement contracts are not typically legal contracts. They are a means to establish boundaries between you and your physician. Depending upon the state, your physician may dismiss you for no reason. Opiate withdrawal is not always harmful. Typically a trained qualified pain physician will try to wean you from opiate medications depending upon how egregious the opiate violation may have been. If the physician cannot get good information from the patient on current medication ingestion, this can be difficult. Of course death from opiate overdose is always more harmful than surviving withdrawal.
No, it's unlikely that this is Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).
TSS symptoms vary greatly from person to person and depending which organs are affected, but in all cases of TSS you would see a sudden high fever and low blood pressure. It sounds like you've hit your cervix and/or vegus nerve when attempting to insert your tampon, thus the cervix being hit is causing pain like menstrual cramps and hitting the vegus nerve would cause you to feel dizzy. The diarrhea is likely just because of your period, hormonal imbalance can lead to increased production of hormones that cause uterine contractions and those can then effect your bowels.
The nerves near the ear, the cheecks are all closely related to the nerves in your teeth. From a dental perspective the position of the post auricular pain may be due to the empaction of your wisdom tooth on surrounding nerves. This would explain the pulsating pain and why you have had it before and it went away. Your teeth will grow minute amounts and then rest and then grow again. This is only a possible explanation.

Where you place a pillow if client has hip and back pain?
For hip and back pain, you want to ease pressure on the pelvic area and the lower spine. To do that, the person must be in a fetal position (laying on the back or stomach puts pressure on the lower back), with a large cushion (preferred) or pillow between the thighs/knees. It needs to be thick enough that the legs are parallel to each other when lying in a fetal position - this is the optimum position for getting the pressure off of the hip and spine.
If the person cannot lie in a fetal position, they can lie on the back, but the legs must be elevated to the point where pressure again is off the lower lumbar area. Usually this means putting a large cushion underneath the back of the legs/thighs. The best way to describe it is the person being in a "sitting position" but laying down on their back with a cushion keeping their legs up.
An alternate way of doing that is to lie on a hard, flat floor with the back of the legs against the front of a couch, and the lower legs lying on the couch itself. The person then rotates the hips forward enough to where the flat of the lower back is against the hard surface. This also removes all pressure off the spine, and by separating the legs enough it will ease pressure on the hips as well.
Before I had most of my lower spine fused (only L1 and L2 are left) I used to use these methods regularly - I still sleep in a fetal position with a cushion between my legs as it is extremely comfortable. The best thing to have is a full body cushion - you can get them at department or bed stores. You can also use a couch cushion, anything that is large and thick - the idea is to get the legs parallel to each other to remove all stress from the hips and pelvic area.
Why your body gets crooked when get lower back pain?
Usually back pain is the result of muscle spasm.
Technically, the spine doesn't really hurt when there is a problem. Instead, the body detects inflamation and contracts back muscles to reduce the pressure on the inflamed area. When the muscle is held in contraction for an extended period it's called a spasm, and it can really hurt. The muscle contraction is a deliberate attempt to relieve pressure on the inflamed area, but you don't get to consciously decide to allow or prevent it.
When the muscles pull the spine to relieve pressure on the inflamation, the spine will become "crooked".
There are plenty of people around who will try to tell you that your back needs to be "aligned"; but before you submit yourself to that kind of quackery, recognize that the spines is just a bunch of blocks of bone, and muscles keep them "aligned". The bones don't align themselves. If you're having trouble with back pain you need to contact A physician for help. Often a few mild exercises can help you relieve the spasms and eliminate the pain.
How do you take care of lower back pain?

Is it best to use heat or ice for back pain?
I once injured my back which resulted in a bulging disk. My Chiropractor put me on an ice regimine from hell. 20 minutes on, 20 off. 20 on, 20 off. For as long as I could stand it. I did this for two days (when I was awake) and it really helped. Well, that and all the Aleve I was taking. He never meantioned heat though. Good luck. Ice. Heat causes the area to expand and swell, for a bulging disc, you want to stabalize and keep it from swelling until you can get to a Chiropractor.
How many ibuprofen can you have for severe back pain?
If they are 200mg tablets you can take four, ONCE. Do not do it again, more than that is toxic. If your pain is that severe I suggest seeing a doctor for something stronger.
You can actually take as much as six, 200mg. tablets in any 24 hour period, but don't take for more than 10 days straight...you should really try to see a doctor, however, because kidney problems can often disguise themselves as back pain.
If your flow was light like this then you shouldn't have been using tampons - without sufficient flow tampons will have more of a drying effect which can cause discomfort, increased cramps, and puts you at higher risk of toxic shock syndrome.
The back pain and cramps may very well be normal menstrual cramps, or increased cramps as a result of tampon misuse, but there may be another problem - if this continues talk to your doctor so they can investigate to make sure everything is okay.
As you are waiting for your period to come, and cramps and back pain are signs of pregnancy.
There are a lot of folks walking around with a c-spine herniated nucleus pulposis (HNP) and don't know it until for some reason an MRI is ordered...!!
What would tell me to refer you to my boss (a neurosurgeon) would be an MRI that demosntrated moderate-severe compression of the spinal cord, that you have symptoms of upper extremety wasting/weakness of the muscles, inability to work with your arms above your head for any length of time AND abnormal nerve conduction studies (NCV's & EMG's) of the upper extremeties. A neurologist often could be the referring physician as well...
The key is an advanced degree of spinal cord compression AND those symptoms I mentioned above...
A neurosurgeon is the final authority as to whether you need surgery --or not...
Does ambien cr 12.5 cause upper back pain after long use?
I think i just found out that it may do more than that . Basically it puts your muscles in a state of relaxation so that more pressure or weight is put on your vertebra and the discs which may cause problems over time Your muscles tense up to protect ur spine as we move or sit or lay , now it reLly also depends on what you do right after taking ambien ; my guess is the more physical movements even stretching the more the possibility of injury. Sleeping at the wrong position may also complicate things Further , this is just my opinion which i have been hypothesizing based on what i know about phisiology and personal experience Let me know what you think. Good luck
