I AM A 66 YRS. LIFETIME HOLISTIC HEALER/CHIROPODIST, DEEP ZONE LYMPHATIC CLEANSING MASSAGIST, AUTHOR, POET, TEACHER,,, FOR THE PAST +23 YEARS I AM BASED IN TIJUANA, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO. I HAVE MASSAGED MANY PEOPLE WHO SUFFER FROM TRIGEMINAL NERVE CONDITIONS. AS A CHIROPODIST I HAVE RESEARCHED THE CONNECTING POINTS ON THE FEET AND THE MOST IMPORTANT CONNECTING POINT IS AT THE INSIDE TIP OF THE BIG TOE, ON BOTH FEET. THIS POINT ALSO CONNECTS TO THE APPENDIX, AT THE BASE OF THE ASSENDING COLON, et.al. CHIROPODY IS THE ANCIENT EGYPTIAN'S 'AGE-OLD' "ART" OF HEALING THROUGH THE HANDS AND FEET, DATING BACK TO 2330B.C., THE MOTHERHOOD OF MODERN DAY REFLEXOLOGY. TODAY CHINA IS TRYING TO TAKE CREDIT FOR THIS WONDERFUL EGYPTIAN "ART". BUT. MOST OF US KNOW THAT AT THE TURN OF THE 20TH CENTURY THE CHINESE WERE STILLBINDING THEIR WOMEN'S FEET. I FEEL THAT THIS WAS BEING DONE TO MAKE SMALL HANDS FOR THE 20TH CENTURY TECHNOLOGY. I AM HERE IN LA MESA, CALIFORNIA, CARING FOR MY SON'S HOME, WHILE THEY ARE OUT OF TOWN. I RETURN TO MEXICO TOMORROW AND HAVE A STROKE VICTIM WAITING FOR ME TO GIVE HIM ONE OF MY DEEP ZONE LYMPHATIC CLEANSING MASSAGES AND CLEAN HIS TRIGEMINAL NERVE. HIS WHOLE LEFT SIDE IS DEAD... SO SAYS THE DOCTOR. I HAVE HAD MANY SUCCESSFUL EXPERIENCES WITH TRIGEMINAL NERVE CONDITIONS. BOTH OF MY YOUNGER SON'S ELBOWS WERE BROKEN WHEN HE WAS 7 YEARS OLD. TODAY HE IS 41, A SUPERVISOR FOR THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA, AND SUFFFERS FROM WHAT THE DOCTORS CALL SPINALMYALGIA, WHICH I FEEL IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED WITH HIS BROKEN ELBOWS, CAUSING GREAT PAIN IN HIS BACK. I MASSAGE HIS FEET WHENEVER POSSIBLE AND HELP TO BREAK UP THE CONGESTION AT THE BIG TOE CONNECTING POINT, WHICH HELPS HIM GREATLY. I FIND IT ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AT THE RESULTS, AFTER MASSGING JUST THE FEET, ESPECIALLY THE TIP OF THE BIG TOE. MOST STROKE VICTIMS RESPOND VERY WELL AFTER 6 DEEP ZONE LYMPHATIC CLEANSING MASSAGES, WITHIN 3 WEEKS. I FEEL PUTTING THEIR FEET IN HOT ROCK SALT WATER FOR 20 MINS. HELPS TO CLEAN THE BLOOD AND RELEAVE CONGESTION. I DESIGN MASSAGE TOOLS ON MY LEATHE. AT THE PRESENT TIME I HAVE A MASSAGE TOOL IN THE MEXICAN PATENT OFFICE, THAT MASSAGES THE TRIGEMINAL NERVE AND I ALSO TURN FOOTSIE ROLLERS, et.al., ON MY LEATHE, FOR PEOPLE TO MASSAGE THEIR FEET, DURING TREATMENTS. IT IS ALSO MY CONTENTION THAT SOYBEANS, GRAINS, AND OTHER FODDER, BEING INFILTRATED INTO THE HUMAN DIET, ARE HELPING TO CAUSE ALOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE TRIGEMINAL NERVE, WHICH IS THE LARGEST NERVE IN THE HEAD SOYBEANS ARE FOOD FOR 4-LEGGED ANIMALS, WITH 2 OR MORE STOMACHES. THEY HAVE A PROTEIN THAT THE HUMAN BODY CANNOT SYNERGISTICALLY DIGEST. SEEMS EVERYTHING I CHECK TODAY HAS SOME FORM OF SOYBEAN BYPRODUCT. ALONG WITH FODDER WE HAVE IMPORTED CONTAMINATED TURKEY MEAT FROM CHINA, KOREA, ISRAEL................... BEING FEDERALLY ISSUED TO THE U.S. PUBLIC SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM, CAUSING OBESITY AND ALL KINDS OF OTHER DIS-ease. CHILDREN DO NOT HAVE A MATURE THYROID UNTIL THE AGE OF PUBERTY, THEREFORE THEY SHOULD NOT BE CONSUMING ANIMAL PROTEINS, LET ALONE OTHER PROTEINS. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CAUSES FOR TRIGEMINAL NERVE PROBLEMS, I FEEL, IS BAD ACID COMBINATIONS. THE HUMAN BODY CAN HANDLE ONLY ONE ACID AT A TIME. ANOTHER IMPORTANT CAUSE IS TIGHT, ELASTIC SOCKS, CUTTING OFF CIRCULATION TO THE BRAIN. ANOTHER IMPORTANT CAUSE IS TIGHT, PLASTIC TENNIS SHOES, et.al., SCREWING UP THE HUMAN BODY, ALL MADE IN CHINA. THANKING YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SEND YOU MY THOUGHTS ON THIS IMPORTANT SUBJECT. IF I MAY BE OF ANY SERVICE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. SINCERELY,nancylamasajista

If you chipped your tooth and a small part of your nerve was showing how possible is it that the nerve will die?

Without a root canal the chances are slim to none. You are in for some serious pain.

Make a dental appointment. Or if money is an issue, contact a dental school to see if you can get low-cost or no-cost treatment.

~ T

i agree, go to the dentist now, if the pain starts (and trust me when it does it will be at 2am Saturday on a holiday weekend) nothing will help it, it is the most unbearable pain ever, go get a root canal, or depending on the damage they may just be able to direct pulp cap it...good luck and godspeed

What is disc protrusion with high intensity zone also causing mild foraminal encroachment at L4-L5?

It's from a radiology report - essentially it's saying that there's a mild disk bulge (not full herniation) at the L4/5 disk that's encroaching on the L4/5 foramina. The foramina is the part of the vertebrae between the spine and vertebrae where the nerves pass. They look like holes or notches behind the vertebrae.

It's not uncommon for a disk protrusion in the lower lumbar area to impinge on the foraminal nerves. Mild just indicates it's not enough of a problem to warrant anything other than non-surgical therapy (rest, anti-inflammatories, etc.). There's usually an underlying cause though - stenosis, injury, old age, weight, etc.

The best way to deal with it is to limit the amount of stress you put on your lumbar spine, and to change the way you sleep (assuming you haven't already). Never sleep on your back, unless you've got cushion under your knees that will flatten your lumbar spine against the mattress; if you sleep on your side, put a cushion between your knees that will keep your legs parallel (this reduces pressure on the hips and lower spine); and never sleep on your stomach. Putting a cushion or pillow behind you and for your arm to rest on (if sleeping on your side) will help keep you from rolling over. Even though I did it for years before my first fusion, I still do it today, and it still helps.

How does pain reliever know where the pain is in the body?

I take several pain killers for chronic pain and have been explained to by my doctor a little on how some specific ones work. Now I'm sure that all pain killers have many different ways of working but most have to do with the pain and inflamation. I take Tramadol which does two things it both inhances the amount of Seretonin in the brain and binds with certain opiod receptors in the body. (it works in the Central Nervous System and is classified as a weak narcotic) The other medicine I take is Naproxen (it is in Aleve but I take a prescription strength dosage). It works by reducing inflamation by reducing hormones that cause inflamation and pain in the body. Now these are only two types of pain relievers. Tramadol- a weak Narcotic- and Naproxen -an Non-steroidal anti-inflamatory drug-. I'm sure there are more but these in my experience are the two main ones given over the counter and by prescription for pain relief. I hope this has helped you.

What muscle is innervated by the femoral nerve?

    • The branch to the Rectus femoris enters the upper part of the deep surface of the muscle, and supplies a filament to the hip-joint.
    • The branch to the Vastus lateralis, of large size, accompanies the descending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery to the lower part of the muscle. It gives off an articular filament to the knee-joint.
    • The branch to the Vastus medialis descends lateral to the femoral vessels in company with the saphenous nerve. It enters the muscle about its middle, and gives off a filament, which can usually be traced downward, on the surface of the muscle, to the knee-joint.
    • The branches to the Vastus intermedius, two or three in number, enter the anterior surface of the muscle about the middle of the thigh; a filament from one of these descends through the muscle to the Articularis genu and the knee-joint. The articular branch to the hip-joint is derived from the nerve to the Rectus femoris.
  • The articular branches to the knee-joint are three in number.
    • One, a long slender filament, is derived from the nerve to the Vastus lateralis; it penetrates the capsule of the joint on its anterior aspect.
    • Another, derived from the nerve to the Vastus medialis, can usually be traced downward on the surface of this muscle to near the joint; it then penetrates the muscular fibers, and accompanies the articular branch of the highest genicular artery, pierces the medial side of the articular capsule, and supplies the synovial membrane.
    • The third branch is derived from the nerve to the Vastus intermedius.
