Re: Re: [RC] back pain - A. Perez

My point was only that any treatment of back problems, no matter
what the modaliity, should be preceded by thorough imaging (NOT
just xrays) so that the exact nature of the problem is
understood before treatments are done so as not to inadvertantly
exasperate the situation.

It is interesting that you mention "Prolonged pressure on
nerves from a
ruptured disc can cause irreversable nerve damage."  You are
very right.
This also happens when a bone is out of alignment, placing
undue pressure on
the DISK and NERVES. As a chirorpactor, this is what I work on
everyday.
Why do you think you ruptured a disk?  Insunuating that
chiropractic
adjustments will increase the pressure on your disk is just
plain wrong.
There are many studies that show that chiropractic adjustments
help relieve
both nerve pressure and disk pressure.  Chiropractic care is
the safest way
to take care of those injuries, before you require surgery. I
understand
your concerns, however, are you a licensed chiropractor?  Have
you read the
studies?  I'll leave a few at the end so you may.  Many
surgeons will tell
their patients that after a disk surgery, you can expect
trouble with the
disks above or below the one they worked on.
