My doctor wants to put shots in my back to reduce scar tissue, has any had this done?

yes, it did hurt for about a few hours. However, it did help.

Ultra sound reduces muscle damage (scar tissue).

related - Much pain is from muscles below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).

Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas (natural muscle relaxers) daily - magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muscles).

Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.

Now to the cause - muscles - your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muscles called trigger points. It makes the muscles tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.

The cure - start with a professional massage, (if this does not do it you probably need a chiropractor as well) you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muscles).

For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from.

It doesent hert as bad as you think it does. Scar tissue never goes away but the shot reduce that aperance of the scares.

My cousin had that done with keloids she had on her ear. It actually helped and they shrunk down really small.

You will be okay and go ahead.
