THE PANDEMIC OF LOW BACK PAIN
Here’s a pandemic chiropractic is built
for: low back pain! A new study in Healthcare journal
shares that “Low back pain is a pandemic and costly
musculoskeletal condition in the United States.” This report considered the cost-effectiveness of chiropractic and physical
therapy for low back pain. Curiously, their up-coming
study is set to ascertain if they decrease
the use of more costly health services like
surgery, injections, and ER visits. For the moment, though, they found
that the total average cost was $48.56 less for chiropractic care
than PT and the daily adjusted life years was 0.0043 higher for
chiropractic than PT patients. They determined that
chiropractic was confirmed to be a cost-effective way
to ease low back pain in adults with at least 3 weeks of low back
pain over 6 months. (1) Come to Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation to find out for

Tonawanda CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
B Vitamins for Diabetic Neuropathy
Chronic diabetic neuropathic pain is challenging. Inflammation has a role. Spinal
proinflammatory cytokines play a role. A new
report about rats showed that B vitamins
not only suppress but significantly suppress
this pain by suppressing the proinflammatory cytokines. (2) Sadly,
vitamin B12 deficiency is very common among type II
diabetic patients who take metformin, a common diabetic
drug. (3) Researchers found associations of anemia
and neuropathy with metformin use in diabetic patients. (4) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation recommends
that our diabetic patients are urged to test
their vitamin B levels! B vitamins are quite important for health!
