To avoid back pain, everyone should try to strengthen your spinal discs. Here is what you can do! Chiropractors work with the vertebra and discs of your spine. Many people wait too long and eventually it may be too late.
For diagnosing sciatica, we typically do a series of orthopedic and neurological tests during a patient’s exam. Also, we can take an x-ray of the patient if needed. Once we get all of that information, we try to figure out exactly why the patient is having the pain that they’re having – I call it doing my homework as a doctor. Those exams and the x-rays usually give us much more of a detailed idea of where they are at. Once we locate where the pressure is, where the pinched nerve is, we typically treat with adjustments and some light physical therapy – stretching, ice, some passive range of motion.
Sciatica, for the most part, is very treatable. We usually get fantastic results. I used to suffer from sciatic pain myself and chiropractic has helped me tremendously. Treatments can eliminate sciatica pain.
