A man (33) had pain in his right shoulder for several years. He tried physiotherapy and acupuncture without results. Radiographic examination (X-rays, ultrasound and CT scan) was normal. Painkillers and antiflogistics (NSAIDs) only helped temporarily. He received injections with Lymphomyosot in the pain zone subcutaneously, using a 0.3 x 13 mm needle (30G x 1/2"). After two weekly injections he improved by about 50%. Then the doctor used the same technique with Traumeel. After two weekly SC injections with Traumeel, the pain in the right shoulder had been reduced by about 90%. It also allowed him to stop taking painkillers and antiflogistics.

Case

A dentist (42) had had pain in his right arm and elbow for about two months. It started after playing squash in a competition. Pain killers and anti-inflammatories didn’t help at all. Tennis elbow was diagnosed and he received a corticosteroid injection from his family physician. As this injection didn’t help, he went to see a biopuncturist.

On clinical examination, the elbow was very tender to the touch, especially on the lateral epicondyle. He could hardly let the doctor put his thumb on this area[1].

He received subcutaneous injections in the area of pain with Lymphomyosot (step 1: phase 1 product). The doctor used one ampoule of Lymphomyosot (1mL) and added 5mL lidocaine 0.25%[2] and gave four subcutaneous injections in the pain zone. Each spot was injected with about 1.5mL, using a 0.3 x 13mm needle (30G x 1/2"). After two sessions of injections with Lymphomyosot, he improved by about 50%. Then he received four subcutaneous injections with Traumeel (step 2: phase 2 product). Two more sessions of these Traumeel injections resulted in a complete eradication of the pain and no more discomfort.

Case:

A basketball player (25) had pain in her right ankle for about three days. It started after an injury during a basketball game. She had difficulty walking and the ankle was swollen, especially on the lateral side. Local application of ice and physiotherapeutic measures helped her temporarily. On ultrasound, there were signs of lateral band injury.

As she was afraid of deep injections, she received local subcutaneous injections (segmental therapy) with a mixture of Traumeel (2mL), Lymphomyosot (1mL) and lidocaine 0.5% (3mL). Four different points were injected subcutaneously during each session. About 1.5mL was given in each spot with a 0.3 x 13mm needle (30G x 1/2"). After two sessions, the pain improved by about 80%.

Case:

A woman (43) suffered from carpal tunnel syndrome for seven months. The doctor planned to give her subcutaneous injections in the wrist fold with Lymphomyosot for two weeks (phase 1), then two weekly subcutaneous injections with Traumeel (phase 2), and then with Hormeel (phase 3). If these injections resulted in a positive clinical response but there would be a relapse, she would get a phase 4 product (Coenzyme compositum). As she agreed with this plan, he suggested treatment on a weekly basis.

The doctor started treatment by giving her subcutaneous injections in the wrist fold with Lymphomyosot, using a 0.3 x 13mm needle (30G x 1/2"). After two weekly sessions she improved by about 30%. Then he injected Traumeel for two sessions, which produced 60% improvement. Then she received two weekly subcutaneous injections with Hormeel, and she showed a 90% improvement. She remained like that for the next twelve months, without any other treatment.

Case:

A soccer player (28) complained about cramps in his calf muscles for two months. He suffered mainly during the night. On clinical examination, several myogeloses in both calf muscles were found. He received local injections (IM) with a mixture of lidocaine 0.5% (3mL), Lymphomyosot (1mL) and Spascupreel (1mL). He had immediate (but temporary) improvement after one session. The cramps disappeared almost completely after four weekly sessions.

Case

A secretary (26) had neck pain for several months. Especially when working on her computer, she had a lot of pain on the right side of the neck. She tried physiotherapy for two months without results. She also took a lot of painkillers. During examination, several painful points in the right trapezius muscle were found. There was an important jump sign, and she had a lot of sore points in her back and neck -- even while exerting only a minor amount of digital pressure (hyperreactor: R+). She received intramuscular injections with Lymphomyosot in the pain zone, about one cm (less than half an inch) deep. After three weekly injections (B1), the patient told the doctor that her pain had been reduced by about 90% with this treatment. It also allowed her to stop taking the painkillers. She had no more pain in the right trapezius muscle during her work for the next six months.

Case:

A marathon runner (25) came along with pain at both his Achilles tendons. He had had this problem for about three months. Physiotherapy and painkillers gave some relief on a temporary basis.

As no trigger points could be found in his calf muscles, he received injections beside the painful zone in the tendon. He received these peritendinous injections with a mixture of biotherapeutics and lidocaine on a weekly basis. After two weekly sessions with Lymphomyosot (step 1: C1), he improved by 60%. Then he received two weekly sessions with Traumeel (step 2: C2). He was completely pain free. He started to complain about pain again, a few months later (relapse). Then, he received two weekly sessions with Coenzyme compositum (step 3: C4). After that, he had no more pain in his Achilles tendons.

Case:

A man (25) had neck pain for 10 months. Plain radiography and CT-scan were both normal. Clinical examination revealed significant palpation tenderness on the midline ligament of the neck (nuchal ligament). These pain points in the midline ligament (LPPs) were injected with a mixture of Lymphomyosot (1mL), dextrose (1mL of glucose 20%) and 2mL lidocaine 1%. Four points on the midline were each injected with a volume of 1mL (no bone contact). He saw improvement for about 3 days. After a second session one week later he improved for an additional 5 days. Then, these same pain points were injected with a mixture of Traumeel (2mL), dextrose (2mL of glucose 20%) and 2mL lidocaine 1%. After the first session, he had a reaction phase for a few hours and 75% improvement for about 5 days. After the second session with Traumeel, he had no further trouble.
