For years I’ve had back pain that causes me to have diarrhea. Can this be related to each other? What should I do?
Impinged nerves (from spinal stenosis) not only innervate muscles and skin...they also innervate organ and gland physiology! That is the result of mechanical stenosis! Find a well trained Chiro that will not twist your spine because stenosis is the direct result of a vertebrae that has shifted backwards and this causes narrowing of the openings in your spine that house the spinal nerves...I talk about stenosis on my website www.FIX24WellnessSudio.com READ MORE
Post bunion surgery
Sounds like a nerve my be impinged. Try soaking the foot in warm water with epsom salt 4 - 5 days... READ MORE
Osteoarthritis
Have your SED rate and CRP checked on blood labs. Alkaline diet, omega's and Vitamin D helps! READ MORE
How long is chiropractic treatment for hip pain?
It depends on the severity and the time that it has been that way. Most anatomy books will state it takes 90 - 120 days for ligaments to heal from structural joint misalignments... READ MORE
How could I be able to tell at home that my knee cap is broke or fractured?
Depending on how much trauma you sustained, I wouldn't suspect a fracture based upon those pictures...I suggest ice and elevate a few more days. try to avoid locking the leg out as this will prolong the healing. keep the leg slightly flexed. Swelling after a week or so that does not go away...may have to see your Doc. READ MORE
Can a chiropractor help with a bulging disc?
Yes.. as long as the joint is not twisted! A bulging disc is the result of a malaligned vertebrae. The disc is mostly fluid and acts like a water balloon. if you step on a water balloon at an angle...the ballon will bulge away from the compression. When a vertebrae shifts backwards, from bending forward or looking down too much, the vertebrae will compress the disc at an angle and cause the bulge. READ MORE
What helps with disc hernia?
Correcting the alignment of the vertebrae that articulates with the disc in question! READ MORE
Can you help with chronic hip pain?
Many cases of hip pain can be traced back to nerve impingement in the lumbar spine. READ MORE
How to heal
That's the classic sign of a hyperextended knee. Roll up a towel and place it behind the knee joint...grab your lower leg and gently flex your foot towards your rear-end cheek on the same side...hold for ten seconds....repeat! This may be painful but it will increase your range of motion! It can also be adjusted by a well trained extremity biomechanic! READ MORE
What is the treatment for hernia pain?
Do a google search for "spinal dermatome chart"...It will show where spinal nerves go...look at the level on the chart and there's most likely the cause and remedy. READ MORE
Can I go to the GYM with a back injury?
More info about your back injury would be helpful... just avoid FLEXION...bending forward at the waist or looking down ... wear a compression belt if it is a lower back issue. READ MORE
Can I workout with a curved spine?
Yes! But understand, a curved spine may be due to a misaligned vertebrae. Without biomechanically maintaining your spine and working out...is just like driving your car without doing maintenance...failure to function will occur. READ MORE
