Neck , shoulder,arm,numb thumb
I used to sit in wrong posture for hours... resulting stiff neck and trapezius muscle pain ...
Now after 2 year ... I have taken around 10 dry needling and cupping sessions ... Realising that they won't help in longer run .
Posture should be corrected ...
As now my thumb in left hand goes partially numb . I realise i am also having on left trapezius blade is not align with right one ... NOW
I am using
✓posture corrector,
✓ cervical collar
✓ nucoxia Mr (suggested by my physio for 5 days)
✓streching
✓deep breathing excersize
Question is how much time does it takes to get
My body and muscle normal functioning by following procedure?
And am i really on the path of recovery ?
Because i have paid for physiotherapist but all temporary ,I want permanent and sustainable
solution ?
Thank you for your valuable time sir/mam .

How many sessions fo physiotherapy have you taken, gone through traction and ift ?
It will take a month for some cases to recover fully. try PEMF therapu of 20 sessions and exercises to be continue for atleast for a month twice a day.
Neck isometric and stretching exercises nerds to be continued and proper posture should be maintained to gain muscle strength and reducing of pain. In physiotherapy take Ift+SWD for a week and then ift for 10 days.
This will only help it will take around a month to recover full.
