A good history and exam would help me determine this. It is very common. My first guess would be weak ligaments that may need nutritional support, but again, a thorough history and exam would help determine that.
It is possible. It could be coming from the neck. It could be referred muscle pain. It could be a lot of things. You should visit your chiropractor for an examination.
There are a lot of factors that go into healing. Age, genetics, diet, lifestyle, and stress are some of those factors. It also depends on the severity and mechanism of injury.
Not a good idea, so don't. Visit your chiropractor.
Check to make sure your ears line up with your shoulders, shoulders line up with your hips, hips line up with your knees, knees line up with your ankles.
Perhaps, depending on the nature and severity of the arthritis. A chiropractor should take a detailed history and do a thorough examination, including x-rays before recommending treatment. If you have had x-rays done in the last year, bring in the images and the report for your chiropractor to review.
That is a good possibility. Your chiropractor should take a good history and do an examination to determine why your child is not sleeping well. There could be many reasons for this.
You can visit a chiropractor any time you would like. Depending on the type of surgery, how recent it was, what techniques the chiropractor is proficient in, you may or may not get treatment.
A chiropractor can adjust the joints of your neck and give you exercises that will help you treat forward head posture. It is important to identify the contributing factors that result in that posture. A good chiropractor will take a history, do an exam, and give you advice on how to correct this problem.
Most likely.
In my experience, yes. It is important to identify the factors that are contributing to the reflux and address those as well.
It depends on who you ask. I'm biased. I say yes. Children are very active, and they are hard on their bodies. Chiropractic treatment can "undo" some of that stress.
Chiropractors have more training in adjusting the neck than any other profession. While every medical procedure has its risks, chiropractic is among the safest there is. If you compare annual deaths, I would be more afraid of dying from aspirin, drowning in the bathtub, or getting struck by lightning.
No. In fact, if it is performed by a chiropractor on a regular basis, it may actually reduce your risk of arthritis.
All medical procedures come with risks--chiropractic included. The risk is very small with chiropractic treatment. Your chiropractor should take a detailed history and do a thorough examination to rule out risk factors. I would not go to anyone other than a chiropractor, since they have more training than any other health care professional when it comes to manipulating the neck.
It is possible for a chiropractor to fix a herniated disc, but will need your help. In addition to chiropractic adjustments, your chiropractor may recommend exercises and nutritional supplements. Make sure your chiropractor takes a good history and performs a thorough examination, including MRIs if you haven't had them done to identify the herniated disc. Then your chiropractor can make a good diagnosis and come up with a proper treatment plan. Discs take a long time to heal, so it will be a long road.
A chiropractor can help you identify the reason behind the headaches and dizziness, after taking a thorough history and doing a comprehensive examination. The chiropractor may be able to treat you, or make a referral to the appropriate specialist.
Yes. A good chiropractor will take a thorough history and perform a comprehensive examination to determine the cause of your pain and treat you accordingly.
