Mr. Eric Miller DC's Expert Contributions
My left shoulder is broader than the right. Is this a growth problem?
It may just be an imbalance in the tension of your trapezius muscle. The only way to really know is to get an x-ray and see if there is a structural imbalance. READ MORE
Is there a way to treat back pain arising due to long sitting hours?
The type of pain you are describing is very common and usually mechanical in origin. That means it is most likely caused by dysfunction of the lumbosacral or sacroiliac joints. The longer you sit, the more difficult it is to straighten up. Manipulation of the spine is very effective at reducing the pain and improving the muscular tension. Make an appointment to see a good Chiropractic Physician. READ MORE
I have just suffered a slip Disc. After how long can I start by back exercises?
Start with your exercises as soon as you can without provoking the pain levels. If you are causing pain to radiate into the legs when doing the exercises, then discontinue and wait until you can perform the exercise without causing the pain to radiate. READ MORE
I have lipoma under my arms. Can a chiropractor help?
I would make sure that the lump(s) are truly lipomas and not something more serious. Have them examined and perhaps a biopsy may need to be performed. A chiropractic physician is probably not the specialist to see to treat lipomas. No treatment is usually needed, but again make sure that it is not something more serious. READ MORE
Can excess weight cause spine problems?
Excess weight can definitely cause increased biomechanical stress on the lower back. The bulge you can feel at the tail bone may be a lipoma or a synovial cyst. Have a physician such as a Chiropractor or an Orthopedic examine your spine to determine what the bulge is and also assess if there is a musculoskeletal reason for your lower back pain. Most of the time, lower back pain is caused by joint dysfunction, disc or muscular issues. READ MORE
Very tight neck
More than likely, there is a reason that your neck muscles continue to get tight even after a massage. Usually, there will be dysfunction of the cervical (neck) joints that is causing the muscles to tighten. Manipulation of the cervical spine may be very helpful in combination with the massage.
