Law
of Generalisation that states “if the irritation becomes very intense it
is propagated in the medulla oblongata, which becomes the focus from which
the stimuli radiate to all parts of the cord causing a general contraction
of all the muscles of the body.” Unfortunately, if a patient arrives at
this stage, they are often irritated by the seemingly do-nothing advice
of the therapist. At this point, the best advice is to seek evaluation and
treatment from a primary care physician and to RICE (rest,ice,compression,elevate)the
body. Other integrative treatments that prove effective are to increase
water consumption and to increase intake of vitamins, such as 1200 mcg of
B-12 and 200 mg of B-6 per day in tablet form.
