I have back and neck injuries from my time in the Marines... I'm 24 and I feel like I'm 50 now, lol. What's worse is I'm acting like I'm 80 which is great for staying out of trouble, but terrible for my relationship... I used to go to a Chiropractor but finances haven't left me with enough to do so as of late... but the adjustments helped out tremendously...
The locations are my lower and mid back areas and my lower neck... I've had other male issues since the injury, and for a while they seemed to be dissipating but when they come back they are worse than before...
I'M NOT GETTING SURGERY EVER!!!
I despise the notion of it because it's done nothing but worsen my fathers condition, and I'm looking for a natural way to do this... the less invasive the better, and I used to take a liquid mineral supplement called Mineral Toddy... but I can't find the stuff anywhere nowadays... I tasted terrible and most people mixed it with orange juice to make the taste less nauseating... and it kind of gave me a big boost of energy... but here I am 24, tired all the time, walking around slow, and just always kind of hum drum...
Any advice would be appreciated, but no fake Doctors... I'm not going to email you for an answer... home remedies from similar people with the same kind of issues would be appreciated... I'm sick of being so out of it.
Your lower and mid back area might be L2. If this is right, you have kidney issue which is related with male issue, too. Of course if female, female issue, too for female readers. Do you have gray hair? If not, there is a good chance to treat with acupuncture and herbs, as you are only 24. It might be easy to remove lower back pain with acupuncture, but function itself is different issue.
Lower neck pain might be related with urinary bladder. Kidney and urinary bladder is a pair. I don't know exact a location as I don't see you.
My personal clinic experience is dealing kidney issue takes longer time to fix. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, kidney function is inherited from parent to support other functions. After birth, other functions must support kidney to replenish. Gray hair is related with kidney.
Seaweeds and black sesame are good for kidney. There are lots of herbs to treat kidney function, but are not used for food. See nearby acupuncture clinic who also deal with herb formulas.
