What could soothe this pain?

Asked by Unbroken (10746points) May 3rd, 2014

I just moved and either pulled a lateral muscle or my autoimmune disease flared up or both. I have pain on my right side just under or on my liver gallbladder.

Any time I twist stretch or exert myself, inhale deeply etc I have a sharp stabbing pain in that side. I have tried salonpas, castor oil massage, stretching, detoxing my system I had a fever and so forth for the first two days heatpads gentle stretching, guided meditation, pillow props etc. I haven’t slept for over an hour since then. I get past the hour and wake up stabbing pains.

In fact just lying down is quite an ordeal I tried to sleep reclining but same result though slightly smaller. I sun bathed hoping fresh air and sun would aid and abet, Epsom salts soaking. I have exhausted all the remedies I am familiar with and have used.

I don’t want to go to the doctor but I should finish getting organized tomorrow and get things lined up for a busy Monday. I’ve schlepped around longer then I should and I would dearly love a good nights sleep. Any ideas?
