Do you think pain killers are going to cure the disease in any way??
Or are we befooling ourselves for the next 6 hours till the effect of pain killers subside, and it would start paining again?
“But what’s the way-out Doc? If I don’t take pain killers I can’t move??” I often get that kind of reply from my patients.
Then I would ask them to suppose their hand is burned out what would you do to put more hot water on to it or cold water??
Your house is burning along with pouring the water over it to douse the fire we would also try to remove the materials which are highly inflammable like a gas cylinder, wood, coal, etc. We have the pain because something is not right with the body and pain is the symptom that is telling us please do something before it’s too late??
Suppose you just wake up in the morning and you got a severe headache, your sleep was disturbed because of that. In all probabilities you are having a high BP but what would you do you would get to the medicine drawer and pop up an analgesic pill. Now the body was telling you that something is wrong with your head the pressure is increased inside the skull which is causing the pain, but instead of treating the BP you popped up the pill and suppressed it, now it would simmer underneath and may lead to damages to heart, kidneys, eyes, brain, sleep, etc.
You have enjoyed the wedding of your old friend, eaten so much type of food and so much full of it that now your tummy is bloated, you are having a sour taste in the mouth, continuous burping, and Gas. What would you pop up a gas pill or any other antacid sachet for that sake? Your body is already suffering from acidity and you just didn’t allow your body to register a complaint that please be aware of and control or you are going to suffer. But no, we are human beings we have medicine for every problem which works in a few minutes.
Our body is a very sensitive machine it would react to an imbalance in its own ways. But if we would not listen to it or would go on ignoring its anxiety calls slowly it would stop reacting would leave us to our fate. And soon we would find ourselves a victim to many modern-day diseases like obesity, DM, HTN, thyroid, cancer now we would start taking all kinds of precautions, is it intelligent to take precautions after we lost our natural health or it was wise to start when we were all hale and hearty and healthy.
Guy's decision is yours after all it’s your health.
