Is there any alternative to long term use of painkillers for a 12 year old with a dislocated shoulder who is waiting for hospital treatment?

Valerian, it will make the child sleepy but it will help with the pain. On a camping trip a friend of mine sliced his hand open with a sharp knife there was no way to get him back soon enough to get it treated. I had some valerian capsules with me, I busted them open made a paste with some clean water and slathered it on, in less than 5 minutes it numbed his hand. Buy some at WalMart $5 a bottle give him/her a half dose 300 – 700 mg and see how it works. If she/he does fall asleep don’t let him/her sleep on that shoulder. It’ll knock you out like that.
rub some dirt on it
use Tylenol it is a semi pain killer but not a blood thinner like other forms of pain killers.
Take the child to the emergency room now. They will take care of the pain there.
This is not the time for waiting for hospital attention.
kids dont want alternative pain killers they want pain killer from the dr or hospital or go to boots …he or she will want alternative meds when he grows up and can make his own mind up about them but now he just needs pain killers not an alternative mother
you can use aswaganda powder mixed in milk given at two times a day
NO. Don’t torture your kids, just do what the doctor says, it’s only temporary.
To withhold painkillers from somebody with a dislocated shoulder is tantamount to torture. This child should receive proper painkilling treatment as soon as possible – anything less is child neglect/abuse.
There is no alternative pain relief to pain relief!!!!!!
You try having a dislocated shoulder without any painkillers then see how much fun you manage to find during the experience.
