When our body strains - whether it be from stomach issues, repetitive coughing, fever, etc. – our muscles will sometimes guard. This is a natural defense mechanism in our bodies and can sometimes lead to unwanted aches and pains.

There are 3 primary reasons for what we call a subluxation and can lead to pain.
1) Thoughts
2) Traumas
3) Toxins
Looking at this more closely, when someone is sad, depressed, angry, etc. it is common that we will also experience some pain or discomfort in our body. Technically, this relates to what is formally called psychosomatic and somatopsychic. Most of us have had the experience of bumping our knee, elbow or another body part and subsequently have some pain or soreness. Additionally, when someone eats spoiled or rotting food we will experience some pain.
If you have been sick, your body is working overtime to help you heal efficiently and thoroughly. There are a bunch of byproducts of this process and if not cleared rapidly, we may experience some pain.
While the pain may resolve on its own, it is wise to go see your local trusted chiropractor to make sure everything is aligned and your nerve system has the best opportunity to heal thoroughly.

If not, you can follow up with chiropractor for a quick evaluation. If you were in bed for a couple of days your back may be locked up and an adjustment can help.
