Should I be going to chiropractor or is it worse for back?
I was wonder that my self, im 30 bls over weight, and its hard on my back!
The answer would be great for us. I slouch and have already one herniated disk surgery. The surgeon said the chiropractor was like being rear ended in a car. The chiro of course said they were full of ■■■■. So I don’t know what to believe??? Part of me is like, isn’t it the same as cracking your knuckles, how if you do that they just get gross and swollen?
It would be a good idea!.
I injured my back 3 years ago and the doctor recommended PT but I instead went to a chiropractor.
The chiropractor did help but I made a lot more progress after I went to PT this year.
Besides the injury, I have bone spurs in my back from osteoarthritis and the PT along with losing weight really helped.
I didn’t do an MRI so I am not sure if I have any disc issues or not… My injury was a little higher than the L4-L5 area…
I think if I was going to do it again I would have done major dieting and PT first… The chiropractor ended up costing me a lot more money for moderate results.
I already herniated my L5 and had surgery.
I just don’t know how much good a chiro actually does.
i went to a sports therapist…he was amazing.
i crawled in 
…and walked out 
take care
