Auburn Leg Pain and Memory Benefit from Curcumin
Back pain and Memory. Cognition and back pain. Is there a relationship? Ask any Auburn back pain sufferer who has had the pain for a while, and you will hear just how the mind and memory just don’t seem to function like normal when pain is on the mind. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. understands. Back pain specialists like yours at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. understand this connection. Pain alters the brain and its memory function. Chiropractic care works to reduce the pain, and Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. may propose some curcumin to foster the pain relief…and memory and cognition recovery.
CURCUMIN FOR MEMORY ISSUES
Chronic pain sufferers know that their pain influences their quality of life. It slows them down. It holds them back. They also have stress because of their chronic pain and non-pain-related problems which aggravates their symptoms. It’s a nasty cycle. These pain and stress feelings alongside emotions, learning, and memory are managed by the hippocampus. Neuropathic pain impacts the nervous system, and hippocampal neurogenesis, its growth and development of nervous tissue, is aggravated by stress. (1) To combat this negative effect on the nervous system, researchers are looking to nutrients like curcumin. Curcumin eased chronic pain and improved cognitive impairment and memory deficit linked to long-term sciatic nerve constriction. Researchers describe how hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity improvements may be acknowledged, so we’ll just thank them (and be grateful that researchers understand the process!) instead of working to totally get them ourselves. (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. cares for many Auburn leg pain patients and their pain relief due to a compressed and irritated sciatic nerve. Curcumin may improve both memory and sciatica!
CURCUMIN FOR SCIATICA
There is compelling evidence that curcumin plays an important role in the treatment of pathological pain due to sciatic nerve injury, neuropathy and such. (3) Current drugs for acute pain (opioids, NSAIDs, acetaminophen and such) help but also have side-effects (renal, liver, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal) and have a potential for abuse. This persuaded some researchers to study curcumin more. Curcumin is said to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic pain-reducing effects…without the side-effects. (4) Other researchers discovered that nanocurcumin (a soluble form of curcumin) prevented pain-related behavior, decreased inflammatory markers and enhanced memory deficient and spatial learning in chronically constricted rats. (5) Curcumin may be applicable for your Auburn back pain condition, too. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. will delve into this with you at your next Auburn chiropractic visit.
