What do you do for facet joint arthritis pain?
I have pain all down my lower back, hip, leg, and foot. I take Tylenol arthritis and sometimes Aleve, but it gets worse all the time. The affected joint is L5 S1. Thanks

Are you sure that is what it is? Even with a dr. saying so do you fully believe that this is what you have? I have seen and helped some who have told me about their arthritis, the specialists they saw all said that that was what they had. In less than 5 minutes I had them walking without pain. It wasn’t any arthritis at all. You can have tight muscles, pinched muscles, which is so common a thing to have and someone gives it a name so you feel better, you now have a name to a pain and in some way we do feel better knowing that. doesn’t mean everything is correct though. Here is how you can release your back to see if there is another explanation to your pain, a two minute process:
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder and find the muscles next to your spine and press on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side.

Try a chiropractor, decrease caffeine, drink elations, take Non-steriodal anti-inflamitory medication such as Motrin.
