Mother with knee pain injuries and burning numb feet

Posted By Michael (Ca) on 01/09/2015

Hello,

My mother (70 years old) is suffering from knee pain injuries (she fell on the ground on Both knees) also she has burning feet and numbness sensation in the bottom of her feet before the injury. She went to knee specialist and neurologist did MRI and Xray they found a tear in meniscus and also arthritis. She complains that on the back side of her knee every time she gets up after sitting down, she feels like all her knee nerves get stuck together and she can't straighten the knee for few minutes. I tried searching the internet and I could find was, Peroneal nerve, Tribial Nerve and /or Posterior nerve damage which I am not sure if the complaints are related or not. If any one has any suggestion, treatment with no surgery, Please advise.

Thanks, Michael

M: There appears to be more than simply injury here, which is common w/ aging, so additional remedies are necessary.

Many joint & bone problems are associated w/ heavy metal toxicity and pathogens, which in turn cause chronic inflammation, which in turn diminish the ability to heal and recuperate.

To begin, peruse the post on Borax in the "remedies" section at top page. She will drink small amount of Borax in water thru the day (directions available in B post from Bill or Ted)which will both detox heavy metals and kill pathogens. Lugols Iodine is also good to help detox. More on minerals, Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulfate) is very good for these type conditions. You can take E.S. 1/4 cup in a whole body hot bath plus 1/4 cup Borax (not on a day when drinking B) to detox and cleanse. You can add E.S. in hot water and soak washcloth to be place directly over the site of injury to draw out the inflammation and reduce pain.

Magnet therapy is also good & common alternative remedy for bad joints as well as any injury whether acute or chronic.

Hello Timh,

Thank you so very much for your post and instructions.

I did not find the post by Bill and Ted on the site. Could you please send the direct Link on the post by them?

Also should my Mom do acupressure or mild exercises like walking or exercising on the stationary bike?

As I mentioned, She is experiencing constant pain that shoots up and down from the knee area.

Do you have any suggestion on the burning sensation on the bottom of her feet and numbness on the bottom her feet? She has gone to neuropathy and other specialists they were not able to find the root of the problem

Hi Michael...The posts by Ted that might help your mother's burning feet problem are giving below:

"As far as burning feet it is fungus issue, the best that can deal with that is castor oil apply to the area, or to make it work better, use DMSO 80% and castor oil 20%, apply to the area. The other issue relates with circulatory issue, yes thiamine works, but the other issue is blood is too thick, or viscous, in which case vitamin E 200 I. U. Is a small dose and will gradually do it. The other is quicker, if you don't have issues about aspirin, which is 500 mg dissolved in 1 cup of water taken three times a day, for one day. Thereafter take as you need, either vitamin E, or aspirin. In some rare cases, it responds to fish oil but is not taken everyday perhaps initially every day for one week, then weekly, the take as you need. Finally if you are having prickly feeling that is more likely circulatory for sure, you take bromelain as 2000 GDU, 500 mg, dissolved in a glass of water, it may require more but over the week it should work."

Ted"

"Vitamin B1(thiamin) is water soluble and leaves the body quickly, so you have to take more, which may become toxic to you. Try the naturally occuring fat soluable version, benfotiamine. Studies have shown that benfotiamine is even more bioavailable than the other thiamine-related compounds called allithiamines, including thiamin tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide/TTFD. Yet benfotiamine is actually less toxic than conventional thiamin supplements.

Also taking the borax protocol, as Ted recommends, should also help to cure your mother's arthritis. Dissolve 1/8 tsp borax in a liter of water and get your mother to drink this throughout the day and everyday. Take this protocol on a 5 days on, 2 days off basis.

Rubbing just 50-50 DMSO/water thinly all around the damaged knee joint once a day will also act to accelerate healing.

M: Here is the Borax link https://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/borax.html

The first problem come to mind w/ the neuropathy is heavy metal accumulation in the bones which invites infection which invites inflammation which causes PAIN. I have had this condition for many yrs and keep it under control with the remedies I am suggesting.

To be certain on heavy metals, you can visit a naturopathic dr or a chiropractor and have proper testing. You can also purchase Hair Mineral Analysis Kit from online labs and they will send you the results.

Did the neurologist test for B-12 vitamin? Alpha Lipoic Acid is commonly used for heavy metal detox and neuropathy.
