Suggest treatment for muscle spasms and knots in the abdomen
Patient: I have been getting a muscle spasm/cramp/knot in my upper right abdomen for quite some time. It happens almost daily and not sure what the cause would be. It feels like it is being twisted into a tight knot and I have to lay flat in order for it to go away. It goes away after a few minutes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Doctor: Hi there.You could be having muscle spasm due to bad posture at work and lying down. I suggest you apply hot water bottle to the affected area. Follow ergonomics at work and adopt good posture. Take Tab. Diclofenac 75mg + Thiocolchicoside twice a day after meal for 7 days for relief.
