Q. Can we correct back pain through chiropractic treatment?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your symptoms and I saw the attachments (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

• There is no worrisome compression on your cord. You should do spinal extension exercises and isometric neck exercises to prevent significant spinal degeneration.

• The scan does not explain your unbalance while walking. I mean to say that your unbalance is not because of the spine problem.

• Right leg pain can be because of spine problem. It should improve with exercise, I suggested.

• Regarding your unbalance, I would like to know a few more things to find out its cause. Since how long you have it? Do you sway on the sides?

• Do you feel as if your head is spinning? Is it related to change in position? Do you have any hearing problem? Does your imbalance increase if you close your eyes?

• Any changes in your handwriting off late? Are you a vegetarian or non-vegetarian or mixed diet?

• Was your vitamin B12 levels checked recently? If so, were they normal?

• We do not recommend chiropractic therapy. You do not need it as of now, rather I would request you to meet physiotherapist and learn the exercises I mentioned.
