Many different painkillers can be purchased at the drugstore. In addition, one works better than the other. The disadvantage of these painkillers is that almost all of them can cause stomach / intestinal complaints. Natural painkillers often do not have this disadvantage and in principle work just as well against the pain as the painkillers at the drugstore. Sometimes only a little longer is needed before these resources work optimally.
Anti-inflammatory drugs such as NSAIDs and the new generation of COX-2 inhibitors can significantly increase the risk of heart failure and attacks. Furthermore, they can have very unpleasant side effects, especially for the stomach and intestines. People sometimes even need stomach protectors if they take these medicines for a longer period of time. Natural painkillers may then be a better alternative. Depending on the type of pain, there are various options. There is a natural painkiller for nerve pain, joint pain, but also for muscle pain, etc.
Nerve Renew as neuropathy treatment at home
Nerve Renew is a medicine that is suitable for people with nerve pain and other (chronic) pain complaints.

hernia
fibromyalgia
shingles pain
carpal tunnel syndrome
facial pain
foot pain in diabetes
With nerve pain, there are also some other natural options.
Zell H3 as peripheral neuropathy treatment at home
Zell H3 is a product that works against nerve pain because it contains a small proportion of procaine. Procaine used to be used as an anesthetic at the dentist. However, the product description of this product does not state that it can work against pain, it is made as an anti-aging product. It is certainly not that expensive at all and therefore perhaps worth a try.
Boswellia & turmeric as neuropathy treatment at home
Boswellia and turmeric are herbs with an anti-inflammatory effect and therefore also have a pain-relieving effect. Omega 3 fatty acids are also anti-inflammatory. Omega 3 fatty acids can be found in linseed (oil), krill oil and chia seed, for example.
MSM sulfur for diabetic neuropathy treatment at home
MSMor while methylsulfonylmethane is a natural sulfur compound consisting of sulfur and methyl groups. It also occurs naturally in, for example, milk and fresh vegetables. MSM ensures better blood circulation, so that nutrients can be supplied better and waste products can be transported better. It also has an anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect. It also works against allergies, for example. As a dietary supplement, MSM has become particularly popular as a painkiller and supportive device for musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis (osteoarthritis), (rheumatoid) arthritis, (sports) injuries, fibromyalgia, low back pain, tendon infections and RSI. * It is also used by people who have an autoimmune disease such as lupus. MSM gel can also be used for painful joints due to osteoarthritis.
DMSO for neuropathy treatment at home
DMSO is much less known in the Netherlands. DMSO provides (immediate) pain relief, inflammation inhibition, antioxidative activity, stimulation of tissue circulation, stimulation of wound healing and softening of scar tissue. * DMSO is used in creams to, among other things, quickly bring a medicine such as antibiotics into the body. The disadvantage of DMSO is the garlic taste and aroma that you can taste and smell after use. MSM is a slightly less strong variant of DMSO, MSM is DMSO2. DMSO itself is a liquid that must be diluted with distilled water to be able to use. It can be used as an ointment, spray or cream in a sore spot. If you want to avoid the garlic odor and taste, then you better opt for MSM sulfur.
Hyaluronic acid for neuropathy remedies at home
For painful and inflamed joints and therefore also for arthritis, hyaluronic acid (= hyaluronic acid = HA) is a solution. HA is the building material for synovia joint fluid. As you get older, you create less HA yourself. It is then an option to take extra HA in supplement form. By swallowing HA your body can produce more synovia and so there is an ‘extra’ layer between the joints. This can itself lead to pain relief. In addition, HA is also anti-inflammatory and therefore good for use in, for example, the flashing of arthritis. HA also acts on the muscles and tendons and can cause a clear reduction in pain.
CBD oil for neuropathy relief at home
The legal CBD product can also be clearly pain relieving. And is available in both a droplet form and to be applied to the skin. Thc has the name to work even better against pain, but can have unpleasant side effects such as hallucination and evoking fears. THC is not legal in the Netherlands. CBD oil is. Make sure you purchase a good product, the choice is now quite large. Differences in the quality of cbd oil is partly due to the fact that some cbd oil is made from residual waste and the levels of cbd (and also thc) also vary considerably per product.
Magnesium for neuropathy treatment at home
Magnesium is actually a bit strange, because it is not really a painkiller. But magnesium is very good at relaxing muscles and nerves, among other things, and can therefore be pain relieving. Among other things with muscle pain it is very nice to rub that muscle with magnesium oil. You can take a nerve renew supplement to prevent nerve pain or muscle pain .
Arnica for neuropathy treatment at home
Arnica D6 is a very good tool for preventing or reducing bruising. If you take Arnica drops quickly after you bump or fall, the bruise can be prevented in some cases and the pain will therefore be much less. Arnica ensures faster blood flow, so that bruising caused by the bumping resolves very quickly. Applying a compress made from Arnica intended for external use diluted with water is also an option. In addition, there are many products in which Arnica is a (main) ingredient, such as Traumeel from Heel.
