severe NECK PAIN ..fast responses please

[goin on 4T]

Hospital will have you waiting 4 hours to give you drugs - go to a walk in clinic, much faster and they will give you better drugs.

In my experience GP's don't know anything about joints/muscles which is why I suggested the chiropractor. $35 is about standard because treatment is only about 15 minutes.

Yep and a chiro will see you with in an hour max no matter how busy they are. They know how to keep the revolving door moving!!!

Ive never been to a chiro
I went to an orthopedic doctor. He knew exactly what to do, they had an xray machine right in the office. He prescribed the exact right medication and sent me to PT which helped tremendously. I can only speak from my own experience, but the ortho route worked well for me

I just had physical therapy today, my 7th appointment since my most recent bout with this kinda pain.

I've had it a few times before, and each time it happens it gets worse. I am 31 now, it first started in my mid 20s.

Usually I can't pinpoint what brings it on, my doc says its probably a combination of things like posture and vigorous jerking off that gets exasperated by someting acute like playing volleyball.

I wish I knew how to prevent it.

The last time I had it, I could barely move for 3 days, the entire right side of my torso was affected, it was tough to sleep.

Also I find it funny how EVERYONE has some miracle cure, and they usually get pissed when you don't do what they think is best.

Examples are accupuncture, chiropractor, physical therapy, ortho, yoga, pilates, etc.

I went to my ortho, to rule out any serious damage, he gave me 8 sessions of PT, more if I need it, but the PT did a combination of active stretches, exercises, some heat and electro stimulation, and massage.

I like chiropractors for back/neck pain. I had some massive back pain the last few weeks, one trip in, he xrayed me, popped some shit around and I immediately felt 60% better. After the next visit I was about 80% better. Going back again this week.


Lestat - how is a chiropractor or physical therapy a miracle cure? Pretty common shit right there.

Well if you wouldnt have put the e-stim on your balls, maybe it would have worked...
