So you guys know I've been having tight muscle knots and spasms in my upper/mid level back and trap area for a long time now. I've tried different "muscle relaxers" over the years but to be honest none of them really did much for me. Soma, cyclobenzaprine, both pretty much worthless for me.
Few weeks ago the doc recommend valium which is an anti anxiety drug but he also said a few times actually that in his opinion it's pretty much the best muscle/spasm calmer there is.
He said there are stronger anxiety meds like Xanax etc.. but when it comes to tight muscles and deep spasm nothing compares to valium in his opinion.
Being that I like to understand things and how and why things work, I thought I'd post this question up. Why is it so good with muscle tightness when it's not even specificly designated a muscle calmer?
I've actually found that they work better for my pain than actual pain meds like tramadol or ibuprofen etc..
Mr.I you have some experience with this I believe? Turbo? Thoughts?
Thanks
