"The
smallest pain in our little finger gives us more concern
than the destruction of millions of our fellow beings."
William Hazlitt [1778-1830. British Essayist]
If
"The smallest pain in our little finger gives
us more concern..." then what happens when we
have back, knee or joint pain?
Did
you know that: |
 |
- 80%
of Americans will battle with back pain at some point
in their lives?
- 7
million people are treated for back pain every year?
- 2
million new cases of back pain are opened every year?
- $100
billion is being spent annually in medical bills, disability
and lost productivity at work?
- Pain
and Pain Relief is of utmost concern for most of us that
are in constant pain.
Why
are we in Pain?
Before
we can answer this question, we need to understand how the
body interprets and handles pain. The pain impulse begins
at the point of an injury for example a cut, burn, pinched
nerve, bruised muscle etc.
Once
the impulse starts, it triggers a number of bio-chemicals
to be released at the site of the injury. Some of these
bio-chemicals are histamine, bradykinin, prostaglandin,
and Substance P. Each of these has one or more effects on
the body. And many of these bio-chemicals are inflammatory
-- that is they cause the injury site to swell up.
Inflammation
is actually a defense mechanism for the body. Inflammation
serves to bathe the injury in healing fluids and acts as
a cushion to protect against further injury. However. if
the inflammation is prolonged or out of control, it can
cause destruction. This is what occurs in arthritis where
the inflammation actually destroys the joints. Also, inflammation
can serve to compound problems by actually causing pain
itself.
This
explains how an injury causes the body to release a number
of biochemicals that can cause inflammation. Another action
of these biochemicals, though, is to stimulate the nerve
fibers of pain, the C fibers. (The body actually has three
types of nerve fibers: A fibers. B fibers and C fibers.
The main fibers which transmit the pain impulse are the
C fibers.) Histamine, bradykinin, prostaglandins and the
other bio-chemicals are actually the stimuli that cause
the pain impulse to begin.
Types
of Pain Relief
At
the site of an injury, whether the problem is pain or inflammation,
the pain impulse can be interrupted by:
- Decreasing
the levels of the "pain" bio-chemicals or
-
by blocking the nerves of pain - the C fibers.
With
that in mind, it would make sense to use a painkiller that
can do both of these. Aspirin and NSAIDS (non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs), such as ibuprofen and Motrin decrease
the prostaglandins. This can result in decreased pain and
inflammation, especially if the prostaglandins are the main
causes.
However,
aspirin and NSAIDS do not directly affect the other pain
chemicals and do not affect the pain nerve, the C fiber.
Narcotics,
such as Darvon or codeine, have no known effect on either
the "pain" bio-chemicals or the pain nerves. Acetaminophen
(Tylenol) also has no significant effect on these at usual
doses. And in fact, the way acetaminophen works is not actually
known.
But
we also know we can interrupt the pain impulse away from
the injury site, at the spinal cord. If our pain killer
could also decrease the release of (or deplete the C fiber
of) Substance P, the pain impulse would be blocked at the
spinal cord level. Aspirin and NSAIDS have no known effect
at this site. Narcotics and tricyclic antidepressants, such
as amitriptylene or Elavil, on the other hand, actually
can block the release of Substance P and stop transmission
at the spinal cord level, but once again have no value in
decreasing the levels of the bio-chemicals of pain.
This
new totally natural remedy does it all by providing the
relief you need without using drugs and other traditional
methods of pain relief:
- Decreases
the levels of the "pain" bio-chemicals.
- Blocks
the release of Substance P, thus slowing down the transmission
of the pain impulse along the nerves of pain, the C fibers.
- And
slows down transmission of pain along the spinal cord.
