See article keywords and concepts |  That seems to help the muscle pain. We didn't talk much about the muscle pain, but people get muscle pain because the nerves firing the other way cause them to spasm, and they just stay tight all the time. They get scar tissue and build up a lot of toxins in there. Anyway, the guaifenesin usually makes them sick for about two months, and then they start feeling better. It seems to be helping the muscle pain. Another thing that's being done, I've had two patients come in, and they were put on chemotherapy for [fibromyalgia] for a year and a half.

I regularly use this plant along with kudzu root (Pueraria lobata), cyperus root (Cyperus rotundifolia), and black cohosh root (Cimicifuga racemosa) for the chronic muscle pain of fibromyalgia. It also can be useful for neck and back pain, restless legs syndrome (when taken with magnesium), and arthritis. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Statins deplete CoQIO levels, and supplements help to minimize or avoid altogether many of the side effects associated with statins, including muscle pain and memory problems. In the vast majority of cases, CoQIO supplementation dramatically reduces statin-induced side effects.
A potentially very dangerous but rare side effect associated with high doses of potent statin drugs is muscle damage called rhabdomyolysis. If you take statin drugs and experience severe muscle pain or weakness, contact your physician immediately. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The most commonly experienced side effects are muscle pain and weakness. Dr. Beatrice Golomb of San Diego, California is currently conducting a series of studies on statin side effects. Golomb found that 98 percent of patients taking LIPITOR and one-third of the patients taking Mevachor (a lower-dose statin) suffered from muscle problems, such as severe calf pain and foot pain. An increasing number of long-term patients (after three years) develop slurred speech, balance problems and severe fatigue. These side effects often begin with restless sleep patterns. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Prolonged contraction also interferes with the elimination of chemical wastes in the affected muscles and surrounding tissues and can cause nerve and muscle pain. To understand why this is the case, let's take a moment to understand the lymphatic system, an underappreciated physiological system that plays an enormous role in maintaining health.
The lymphatic system consists of lymph fluid and the structures (vessels, ducts, and nodes) involved in transporting it from tissues to the bloodstream. Lymphatic fluid fills the spaces between cells in the body. |
Bottom Line Health
See book keywords and concepts | | For relieving muscle pain caused by sprains and strains, the first step is to apply a cold compress for approximately 20 minutes every four to six hours for the first few days.
A cold pack, a plastic bag filled with ice or even a bag of frozen vegetables will serve the purpose. Wrap the cold compress in a towel or dry cloth to prevent frostbite when placing it on
Muscle Myth
Muscles do not turn to fat when you stop working out. When people stop exercising, their muscles begin to shrink. This makes some people believe that muscle turns to fat. |
Marshall Editions
See book keywords and concepts |  Compresses: If muscle pain is caused by an injury, apply ice for 15-20 minutes three times a day. If cramping occurs in association with pain, warm, moist heat can also be applied. You can also try applying warm castor oil on a washcloth for 20 minutes twice daily to relieve pain.
Supplements and herbs: Magnesium is helpful when taken orally in the form of magnesium aspartate or topically by taking an epsom salts bath. Valerian is a natural muscle relaxant and can be used in conjunction with magnesium. Bromelein is also sometimes helpful in relieving chronic muscle soreness. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Such was the case, for example, in 1989 with an outbreak of eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome (EMS), an autoimmune cluster epidemic that caused severe fatigue, muscle pain, and weakness to the point that patients were rendered unable to function. EMS affected thousands of individuals around the world after a manufacturer made a minuscule change in the manufacturing of an amino acid food supplement, L-tryptophan. | | At the age of fifteen, however, she began to experience muscle pain, joint aches, and a constant fatigue that she likens, looking back, to "that feeling you have during those first few hours when
* This patient's name has been changed. you're getting the flu but you don't know yet what's wrong with you." LaShekia's flulike malaise lasted for weeks.

See book keywords and concepts | | One common cause of muscle aches and pain is fibromyalgia, a condition that involves tenderness in your muscles and surrounding soft tissue, sleep difficulties, fatigue, and headaches. muscle pain may also be due to electrolyte imbalances, such as too little potassium or calcium, or be caused by certain drugs, including statins for lowering cholesterol and ACE inhibitors for lowering blood pressure. |
John J. Ratey, MD
See book keywords and concepts |  He got headaches, stomachaches, muscle pain.
His attention problems aside, the primary issue, I told him, was that he was depressed. He was inactive, unmotivated, and he felt hopeless. He had done nothing to sort out his work situation, and although it had been months, he denied there was a problem. Then one day, he came in, and I could see his demeanor had deteriorated. Typically very neat, he was unshaven and unkempt and told me he was having a hard time getting out of bed.
I insisted that he try an antidepressant, and I put him on the SSRI escitalopram (Lexapro). |

Bottom Line Health
See book keywords and concepts | | Physical dependency means the body has become used to the drug, and when it is stopped, withdrawal symptoms, such as muscle pain, vomiting and diarrhea, can occur. This can be avoided if your doctor tapers the drugs slowly. Addiction occurs when there is a loss of control over the drug use, continued use of the drug despite negative consequences and a mental focus on getting and using more than the prescribed amount.

See book keywords and concepts | | DIAGNOSIS
Muscle aches and pains (also known as myalgia) are common in the body's soft tissues and can involve one or several muscles, as well as ligaments, tendons, and fascia (the soft tissues that connect muscles, bones, and organs). muscle pain is most frequently related to tension or stress, overuse, muscle injury from exercise or physically demanding work, or injury from sprains and strains. In these situations, the pain tends to involve specific muscles and starts during or just after the injurious activity. The cause of the pain is usually obvious. | | Muscle Pain (p. 667) for helpful herbs such as cramp bar w and black haw. Effective topical treatments for muscle problems are discussed in detail in C/J i the section on back pain (p. 604). For shoulder pain due to arthritis in the joint, consider taking devil's claw, turmeric, ginger, green tea, and Indian frankincense, as discussed in the sections on arthritis (p. 597) and rheumatoid arthritis (p. 696). Devil's claw is most effective when taken in higher doses—3-6 g of powdered herb or 600—1,200 mg of 5:1 powdered extract per day. Powdered turmeric root is often recommended at 30 0. |

It is severely irritating in local application. | | Other uses include: menstrual pains, treatment of diabetes, and as a tonic for diverse illnesses and debilities; externally for corns, warts, calluses, otitis, muscle pain, neuralgia, arthritis, and sciatica.
PRECAUTIONS AND ADVERSE REACTIONS
No health hazards or side effects are known in conjunction with the proper administration of designated therapeutic dosages. The intake of large quantities can lead to stomach complaints. Frequent contact with the drug leads on rare occasion to allergic reactions (hand eczema). | | Among the side effects that may occur: queasiness, vomiting, feeling of weakness in the legs, muscle pain, numbness in the fingers, angina complaints, tachycardia or bradycardia, localized edema and itching.
OVERDOSAGE
Overdosage or long-term administration can lead to: thrombosis, damage to the vessels of the retina, combined with optic atrophy, gangrene of the extremities, hemiplagia, and convulsions. |
Ray D. Strand
See book keywords and concepts |  Many researchers feel the underlying reason why some of the patients who are taking "statin" drugs develop muscle pain and even muscle destruction is because of these very low CoQlO levels in the muscle. Physicians will usually base their decision about the health benefits of nutritional supplements on a study such as this. However, they totally ignore the hundreds of studies that show health benefits with the use of nutritional supplements.
I hope and pray that independent-thinking physicians will take a look at the studies I have detailed in this book. |
