Pulling pain in back in morning. Could it be due to sleeping position?
Yes, it could be from your mattress or how your body positioning is throughout the night. But, please be aware that most low back pain symptoms can be from an underlying disc issue. The lower back (L4,L5 and sacrum) are the most common areas for a disc herniation causing low back pain that could mimic and/or cause low back pain and spasm. Pain in this region, if a disc, can also be commonly worse in the morning and upon transitional movements (getting up/down out of bed or a chair). It would be best to get yourself checked out by a chiropractor in your area to assess what is the true root of your pain symptoms before you spend a lot of money on a new bed. Best of luck to you! Cheers, Dr. Dan Secrest, DC READ MORE
My father is suffering from severe back pain. Can it be treated with manual adjustment of the spine?
Hello Yes chiropractic adjustments can help. The majority of low back pain cases can have disc involvement as an underlying cause of the pain. Getting adjusted helps to decrease pain, increase range of motion and improve function (ex. Strength). Adjustments have been proven to be more effective then meds (which can get addictive and less effective over time) Please get your father adjusted or, if in the Scottsdale, Arizona area call our office at 480-994-4411. If you’re not in our area, call anyway, I can find a good doctor for you in your community. Cheers Dr Dan Secrest, DC READ MORE
