Re: Capsation treatment after surgery?

[Guest guest]

Hello, I have never heard of that so I looked it up and if you haven't already,

you should go to:

http://osteoarthritis.about.com/od/painrelief/a/capsaicin.htm

I was diagnosed in 1965 with scoliosis and since then have had 10 surgeries and

any kind of follow up treatment you can imagine. I found a new pain management

doctor and start some injection therapy. My spine is fused from T1-S1 so the

sacroiliac joint is the only one not fused and due the hardware in my back, it

will be a hit or miss. I hope it's a hit. If this doesn't work then I'm going

to go for a neuro stimulator implant.

I have compiled a list of websites devoted to scoliosis. Here it is. Good luck

I am fused from T4-S1 and have had 5 surgeries for various reasons. I also have

pain in my side, in addition to some others that come and go. I take daily pain

meds to ease the pain and in addition my mother does " Orthobionomy " on me. I

don't know how I'd have survived all these years if not for her abilities. She

finds muscles that are spasmed and/or crooked hips and that sort of thing. Often

when my ribs start hurting really badly, it's due to immobilily in my pelvis.

Granted, the fusion makes me pretty immobile, but not completely. And in spite

of the rods and all, my body still shifts. If she were no longer able to work on

my, I'd go find a very experienced body worker, not a chiropractor or a massage

therapist but a person who knows orthobionomy. This is a very suttle form of

minipulation that helps the body get back to where it needs to be.

It helps only to a certain extent. Not enough to keep me from needing surgeries

and medication, but enough to keep me from feeling desparate. It sounds like

maybe it could benefit your circumstance.

Hello all ,

I had my fusion in march from the T9 thru the sacrum. I have had no stop left

side pain since then . My doctors finaly believed that I did indeed have pain

and have now tried three treatments, none of which worked.

They are now going to try capsation ( I maybe spelling that wrong ) from what

they told me it is a very very hot chili pepper paste that the apply to affected

area and leave on from 4 hrs. They will highly sedate me because they said it is

very painful . He said I will still feel pain even though I will be sedated .

Has anyone here heard of this ? Or has anyone else had it done ? There goal is

too kill the nerves on my left side so the pain wil stop . All other regular

treatments have failed and the surgeon said that the screw theyy thought it was

is not whats causing it .

Any help or info at all would be very helpful . Thank you
