Be aware that pain relief and improvement in the inflammation of an injured limb oftentimes does not address the root of the problem which made you susceptible to the injury in the first place. Temporary relief, recurrent pain and swelling are the body’s signal that the problem still exists.
It is time to see a chiropractor for adjustments when ice and rest have not resolved the pain and discomfort. Also, if there is relief and then the pain re-occurs once regular activity or training are resumed, then you need to see a chiropractor without delay.
In order to rule out the possibility of other similar orthopedic problems, x-rays, scans and imaging (MRI) are good diagnostic tools.
The chiropractor relieves the pain in the legs by relieving the pressure that compresses the nerve root. A non-invasive therapy used by the chiropractor is the manipulation of the pelvis. Overweight individuals should try to lose the extra pounds as this brings relief from the leg pain and discomfort.
Other useful therapies are:
- Postural retraining
- Acupuncture and acupressure
- Yoga
- Aromatherapy
- Color Therapy
- Weight management program
- Herbal Therapy
For severe nerve compression, there are non-surgical chiropractic solutions but some cases may require a surgical solution to release the entrapped nerve.
Pinched nerve is also called compressed nerve. It is the pressure put on a nerve root by the surrounding tissues such as bones, ligaments and tendons. A pinched nerve most frequently occurs in the lower spine, the wrist and neck. Other parts of the body can also have pinched nerves.
Chiropractic is based on the fact that the body can heal itself naturally. When the nervous system is at its peak performance, the body can resist disease. Thus, chiropractic care focuses on improving the function of the nervous system. This has a positive impact on many health conditions like a pinched nerve.
