Herbal Remedies for Pain

 

As the popularity of Vioxx and other Cox-2 inhibitors has waned, people in pain are looking for safe, effective alternatives for chronic back and neck pain, and herbal remedies have the advantage of producing minimal, if any side effects.

Willow bark

White willow bark is used for conditions that cause pain, inflammation, or fever, such as:

  • Acute
     

  • Fever
     

  • Flu
     

  • Joint pain
     

  •  

  • Pain

    People take white willow bark instead of aspirin because it does not appear to be as irritating to the stomach lining. It may be because the salicin found naturally in white willow bark is only converted to the acid form after it is absorbed by the stomach. There have been few reported side effects. However, the same side effects as aspirin may theoretically occur, especially at higher doses: ringing in the ears, ulcers, stomach burning, pain, cramping, nausea, gastrointestinal bleeding and liver toxicity, rash, dizziness, and kidney impairment.

    T art cherries

    Both sweet and tart cherries and cherry juice have long been used by traditional healers as a folk remedy for gout, because cherries are thought to lower urate levels in the body.

    Tart cherries are used for conditions involving inflammation and pain, such as:

      Both sweet and tart cherries contain phenolics, naturally-occurring plant compounds that have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant effects.

      •  

      • Post-surgical neuropathic pain
         

      •  

      • When it is applied to the skin, capsaicin cream has been found to deplete substance P—a neurochemical that transmits pain—which desensitizes a person to pain.

        Capsaicin cream produces a temporary reduction in pain, so it must...
