A case of shoulders pain, arms numbness and headache was helped by acupuncture

By Dr Win  Huang

Ms Parker 35 yrs old, she has had shoulder pain for several months. The shoulder pain on the right side is worse than on the left side. she went to see her d—r who suggested she take anti-inflammation pills but still had pain in her shoulder. Gradually she feels numbness in both arms, especially when she wakes up in the morning. she went to see a specialist who thinks that she suffered from bursitis 滑囊炎, so suggested she do an operation for shoulders pain. She did not want to do the operation, so come to see me to try acupuncture. apart from shoulders pain, she feels throat dry, fatigued, bad sleeping has headaches and has low energy.

I gave her an examination and found pressing pain and muscle spasm around the right shoulder blade and on the shoulder blade 肩胛骨, especially the muscle on the shoulder blade. So I think that her symptoms, such as shoulder pain, arm numbness due to muscle spasm on the shoulder blade and throat dryness, fatigue, low energy, bad sleeping, headache due to the muscle spasm around the shoulder blade. So lose the muscle spasm up back and shoulder, then the symptom will be gone.

She felt much better after two sessions, sleeping is good, no headache, pain in shoulders relieving lots. She felt very well, after six sessions, no throat dry, no fatigue, more energy, no numbness in both arms, little pain in the shoulder, and more pain in the shoulder after hard exercise or heavy lifting. she felt very well, after 14 sessions of acupuncture, with no numbness in her arms, no headache, no fatigue, more energy, sleeping very well, and only little bite pain in her right shoulder after hard exercise.

We can know in the clinic that some patients feel tired, fatigued, have low energy, have headaches, bad sleeping, arm numbness, and shoulder pain, the reason is the muscle spasm around the shoulder blade and on the shoulder blade. It is a good effect to be helped acupuncture for these patients.
