Rethinking Pain from Lumbar Disk Herniation

Lumbar disk herniation occurs when one of the cushioning disks between the bones in the lower back becomes damaged, allowing the soft inner material to push outward. A disk herniation itself may not cause symptoms, and studies show that many adults have positive findings on MRI without pain. However, when a herniated disk irritates nearby nerves, it can lead to localized low back pain and/or symptoms like sharp, shooting pain into the leg. Traditionally, pain and disability related to lumbar disk herniation have been attributed primarily to nerve compression. However, more recent research suggests a more complex picture—one in which the nervous system, including the brain, plays an important role in ongoing pain.

Tips to Help Prevent Episodic Headaches

Headaches are among the most common physical ailments worldwide, with about half of adults experiencing at least one episode each year and roughly 1 in 6 reporting a headache on any given day. Fortunately, for most people, headaches are not a persistent issue but instead occur episodically—that is, they arise for a short period of time and then resolve. In broad terms, three major contributors to episodic headaches include dehydration, stress, and muscle tension.

Scapular Stabilization for Shoulder Pain

The shoulder is one of the largest and most complex joints in the body. It’s actually three joints—the AC or acromioclavicular joint (the collar bone/acromion of the shoulder blade joint), the glenohumeral joint (the ball-and-socket joint), and the scapulothoracic joint (the shoulder blade/rib cage “joint”)—all of which involve the scapula to some degree.

Cervical Traction for Neck Pain

In addition to spinal manipulation, doctors of chiropractic often use other conservative therapies to reduce pain and improve function in patients with neck pain. When it comes to neck conditions involving herniated disks, radiating arm pain (“radiculopathy”), strains, facet syndromes or sprains, and myofascial pain, cervical traction is one such option.

Nerve Flossing and Low Back Pain

The sciatic nerve is made up of five nerve roots that exit the spine in the lower back (L4 to S3) and then merge into one nerve that travels through the buttock and into the leg. At the back of the knee, the nerve divides into two nerves, the tibial and common peroneal, that travel into the inner and outer lower leg and foot.

Hip-Related Injuries in Athletic Kids

The hip is a very important region of the body, especially since our upright, weightbearing activities rely on a properly functioning hip joint. With the expansive growth of youth athletic programs, the incidence of hip-related injuries and the associated disability has markedly increased. But is there a difference between young male and young female hip injuries?

Traction for Low Back Pain?

In the past, we’ve written about the use of mechanical traction for patients with neck pain. But what about the low back pain (LBP) patient? Can traction help reduce pain and improve function for this group? Let’s see what the scientific literature has to say about traction for the lower back and whether it has merit.

Can Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Be Hereditary?

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a disorder caused by compression of the median nerve that alters the nerve’s function (neuropathy), leading to pain and numbness/tingling (paresthesia) primarily on the palm-side of the wrist and hand. While factors like hormonal changes and repetitive motions are known to increase the risk for CTS, there might be a genetic component to the condition.
