Auburn Back Pain with Hip Pain Helped with Exercise

October 22, 2019

Have you heard? Exercise is good. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. bets you have! Whether we like it or not, we all must exercise, move, and get our blood flowing! Auburn chiropractic patients are recommended to do some type of exercise as part of their whole treatment plan for hip pain as well as any related Auburn back pain with good reason.  It’s good!

SPECIFIC EXERCISES FOR SPECIFIC CONDITIONS

Since Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. cares for a lot of musculoskeletal pain like back pain and neck pain and related arm and leg pain, a new paper was quite thought-provoking! It documented the suggestion and use of exercise for several specific conditions. A list of exercises for different diseases – musculoskeletal system diseases like low back pain, hip fracture, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis – described the preventive and rehabilitative effects for each as well as the correct intensity and frequency. (1) Improved knee pain, function and quality of life resulted from isolated hip and leg strengthening exercises. (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. invites patients with knee, back and hip pain to our chiropractic practice.

HIP PAIN…OR BACK PAIN?

Hip pain issues occur alone. Hip pain issues may occur along with low back issues like spinal stenosis. Hip xrays are not reliable on their own. MRIs are more reliable for confirming diagnosis. Hip pain may mimic lumbar spinal stenosis. (3) What Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. carefully checks for are non-spine related issues like avascular necrosis of the hip and hip fractures so that those may be managed with other healthcare practitioners as well. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. ensures our patients receive the care they require!

BACK PAIN RELATED HIP PAIN

Patients who have non-specific mechanical low back pain walk differently due to different pelvic, hip and knee movements. They also are less able to extend their hip flexors and abductor muscles. (4) Researchers further described how low back pain influenced muscles of the lumbopelvic area. It is important for back pain sufferers. Changes in hip muscles may come from alterations in the cross-sectional area and volume of muscle. Why is this notable? Developing an exercise program to improve hip muscle function is vital. (5) Surgeons are even finding value in having patients who decide to have back surgery perform “prehabilitation” exercises before back surgery as it helped improve range of motion, leg pain intensity, lumbar spine extensor muscle endurance and walking capacity…with no adverse side effects. (6) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. has treatment programs of exercise combined with evidence based spinal manipulation and nutrition to prevent back surgery when feasible and56 pre-habilitate and rehabilitate Auburn back pain patients!
