A member asked:

B/f is on disability for back injury. sometimes hes in severe pain but refuses to take meds. is there any natural supplements/vitamins that would help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Perhaps: It depends what is causing the pain. For example the most common bacterium C. Trachomatis is sensitive to the chinese herb Bitter Melon. Another example is the AB biaxin (clarithromycin) may be substituted with the herb black seed cumin. Get checked by a naturopath.
