Back Pain / Issues
I was looking for any other members who have had back issues and what they tried to alleviate the pain.
About a year and half ago, I was diagnosed with a herniated disc in my L5/S1. It happened after playing basketball and the next day, I couldn't stand straight or walk. I have been getting injections for the past year and that gives relief for about 1-3 months. I've bought inversion tables, tried yoga, stretching, and nothing seems to work. It's not the type of pain that will drop you to your knees, it's just bothersome enough to interfere with your normal life. I'm only 37, but my profession (police officer) I'm sure doesn't help. Any techniques, methods, or any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Back Pain / Issues
Look for a doctor that has a spinal decompression machine works wonders on you without surgery!
Good luck, LS |

Good luck, LS[/QUOTE] Depends on the person but..IMO..All those so called" treatments" are like going to a chiropractic doctor...you just keep going and going and going. The real solution is to fix the problem . This is important since this person is still young and can heal better now rather then when he gets older.

Re: Back Pain / Issues
When you have to relate numbers and letters to injuries, that don't sound good!

Re: Back Pain / Issues
I felt the same way about going to the chiro. He would do the adjustment, hook up the tens machine and I'm out the door. Doesn't really fix the problem, but I'm sure he likes my co-pay's. It just gets really frustrating sometimes. I'm not trying to get a medical retirement or anything like that. I like my job and just want to continue to live and work somewhat pain-free.
I've heard that most surgical procedures don't fix the problem. Even my back doctor is against back surgery...

Re: Back Pain / Issues
Went to the Chiro
ice on the back and tylonol The tylonol worked better than hydrocodien I think opiats are not good for muscle or back pain since they inflame the joints.
