I've been dealing with this really annoying pain in my tailbone for the last three months. It hurts whenever I sit down, but it's weird because if I press on the spot, there's no pain. I've tried using ointments like Volini, but they haven't done much. The intensity seems to change every day. What could be going on?

Daflon (Diosmin) is a flavonoid used to treat varicose veins, hemorrhoids, and other vascular disorders. The recommended dosage may vary depending on the specific condition, severity, and individual patient needs.

According to the manufacturer's guidelines and medical literature, the typical recommended dosage for Daflon in the treatment of varicose veins is:

500 mg twice daily (BID) or

1000 mg once daily (OD)

Both dosing regimens have been shown to be effective in improving symptoms and reducing inflammation in patients with varicose veins.

I've been dealing with cervical issues for about a year now with symptoms like neck pain, stiffness, occasional numbness in my hands, and headaches. Can bone spurs be removed through surgery and how safe is the procedure?

I recommend starting with physiotherapy and painkillers to manage your condition. If there's no significant improvement after a reasonable period, we can then consider surgical options.
