Are you in constant pain? Do you carefully balance between managing your pain vs. giving up and crying?

When Is It Not A 911?
No one wants to worry constantly. We certainly don’t want to visit our chiropractor or family doctor for every ache and pain. But eventually we all experience physical problems, and it may be difficult to know how to solve them. Some problems are immediate and serious. For instance, if you suddenly experience crushing chest pain and radiating pain down your left arm, possibly with nausea, profuse perspiration, and a feeling of impending doom, you know you have to call “911” immediately. Also, if you awaken in the middle of the night with an intense, deep, sharp pain in your lower right abdomen, accompanied by vomiting and a fever, you also know that you need to go to the Emergency Room right away. In these exceptional cases, most people know which steps to take. But what should you do when your pain is not clear-cut and dramatic, as it is in a heart attack or acute appendicitis?
Overall, pain is a warning sign, but many problems that cause pain can resolve on their own. For example, you may twist an ankle on your daily walk. It may hurt to put weight on that ankle and there may even be a bit of swelling but within two days your ankle is much better. There was initial pain attributing to a soft tissue injury, possibly involving muscles, tendons, and/or ligaments; however, the injury was not so severe that your body’s ability to self-heal could not manage the situation. In the case of a higher degree of initial pain and more swelling, or if an improvement were not obtained within 48 hours, a visit to your chiropractor would be appropriate.
In borderline situations involving musculoskeletal pain, for instance back, neck, shoulder, or knee pain, your intuition and level of pain tolerance will be the deciding factor on when to seek professional assistance. But better to err on the side of caution and not lose the quality of life you desire by living and masking the pain.
Time To Ask The Expert
When you suffer with debilitating neck and back pain you should consider an evaluation first by a qualified chiropractor. The majority of these spinal complaints are caused by irritation and inflammation of muscles, tendons, and ligaments that not only help create the structure of the spinal column but provide for the full mobility of the spinal vertebrae. By locating regions of your spine where mobility is decreased, your chiropractor is able identify the areas that are in need of treatment. The treatment includes not only restoring mobility to the spinal joints but the reduction of pressure and irritation on spinal nerves. By reducing the irritation and inflammation of the spinal soft tissues, the pain will reduce along with the adverse effects to the normal function of the spinal nerves.
The result of non-treatment for spinal nerve compression may include a wide range of other health problems. By addressing the source of many of these issues with chiropractic care, physical rehabilitation, and other recommendations based on an individual basis will help eliminate your neck and back pain and help contribute to your overall health and well-being.
