Q: I have constant very strong back pain since 6 years (disk
surgery 12 years ago L4/L5). I need opiates 3 times a day. What Tibetan Medicine or
treatment could help me?

A:
As your strong back pain is a chronic problem
and you have already had surgery, I cannot say that Tibetan Medicine could help you at
this time without a consultation and full information on your physical condition.
Generally, Tibetan Medicine is very helpful and effective for chronic problems, especially
disorders of the nervous system, indigestion, jaundice, arthritis, and rLung related
diseases, such as depression or insomnia.
I would recommend you consult with a Tibetan Medicine practitioner as soon as you can.
Until you do, you can follow these food restrictions. Avoid cold food and drinks, and do
not swim in cold water for a long time. Do not eat unripe fruits, especially potatoes and
tomatoes. Try to restrict your use of strong pain killers.
When you do find a Tibetan doctor, as well as giving you a diagnosis, the doctor will
give more precise food restrictions according to your general condition of health and the
cause of your problem.
