View allI'm dealing with this painful swelling on the middle right side of my back, and it feels like the muscle there has turned into a rock. It really hurts when I try to sleep on that side. Went to my GP and got some meds and cream, but they havent really done the trick. Could this be a muscle knot, and what can I do to get rid of it?
Sounds like you may be dealing with a muscle knot in your back. To help relieve the pain and swelling, you can try using a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (Cyclobenzaprine) along with a topical pain relief cream like Voltaren Gel (Diclofenac). Additionally, applying a heating pad to the affected area and gently massaging the muscle knot can also help to alleviate the discomfort. Make sure to avoid sleeping on the right side to prevent further aggravating the muscle. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been dealing with this mild pain in my lower body, particularly in my glutes and legs, ever since I had ozone therapy for my L4 L5s1 about three weeks ago. Is this sensation normal? The doctor mentioned it might take up to three months to feel back to normal, but I'm wondering if it's okay for me to go back to my IT job now, which involves a lot of sitting, or should I rest a bit longer? Also, is ozone therapy supposed to be a permanent solution? Just trying to understand what to expect.
yes it is normal, if you are having severe pain you can refer to your respective doctor
