Using Herbs for Neuralgia
Sometimes a nerve or group of nerves that has already been injured continues to send pain signals to the brain. This type of nerve pain is referred to as neuralgia, or in the case of lower back pain, sciatica and lumbago.
Nerve pain is more difficult to treat than other types of muscle and joint pain. As you know lower back injury, slipped disc and sciatica can be devastating. Even 40 years later, after the car accident that injured my back, lower back pain still is a constant unwelcome presence. My favorite remedy? Cayenne pepper oil , daily yoga and long walks to keep my back muscles in shape. The most important thing is to never give up, never surrender, and keep going until you find the your own personal answer. |

Try using Cayenne infused oil for lower back pain

Hot stone massage therapy
Analgesics (painkillers) work well for short term pain, but neuropathic pain resists most conventional non-narcotic painkillers. Narcotics can cause problems of their own. Herbal alternative treatments can bring relief, and you may also wish to explore acupuncture and professional massage treatments. These Eastern physical therapy techniques can be especially effective for nerve pain.

Devils Claw For: Lower back pain |
 Profile
| Devil's claw has been most extensively tested for relief of lower back pain. A randomized, double-blind study in Germany with 183 subjects produced the surprising result that not only was devil's claw effective in relieving lower back pain, it was most effective for people who had the most severe, radiating pain, with numbness in the extremities.

Rue For: Sciatica |
 Profile
| Externally, Rue is an active irritant, being employed as a rubefacient. If bruised and applied, the leaves will ease the severe pain of sciatica. The expressed juice, in small quantities, was a noted remedy for nervous nightmare, and the fresh leaves applied to the temples are said to relieve headache. Compresses saturated with a strong decoction of the plant, when applied to the chest, have been used beneficially for chronic bronchitis. If a leaf or two be chewed, a refreshing aromatic flavour will pervade the mouth and any nervous headache, giddiness, hysterical spasm, or palpitation will be quickly relieved.
