Sometimes adjustments cause a short duration worsening of pain but it should not last beyond that.
Most 100% they should help you , unless your body won’t respond well which is based on the issue and what it needs and the diagnosis .. X-rays .. MRI …
It is not uncommon to have minor increased stiffness or soreness after your first chiropractic adjustment, typically symptoms subside within a few days!
Adjustments usually help the pain.
