How can i reduce my pain due to ankle sprain?
Hot pack is not recommended for acute sprain. Cold pack also does not help after 24-48 hours when the acute phase of the condition is over.

Are there any symptoms of osteoporosis?
To confirm if you have osteoporosis or not, you need to have a test called DEXA scan to check the bone density.

Osteoporosis may contribute to joint, muscle and/or bone pain. READ MORE
Is there a way to treat back pain arising due to long sitting hours?

Can excess weight cause spine problems?
Obviously, any extra weight that's applied on your spine will eventually become burden to it and accelerate degeneration process(cartilage of the joint wears out more quickly due to the extra gravitational force/weight). Your posture will be another thing you need to be careful about. During the pregnancy and After delivery, your abdominal muscles become lax and weak so cannot hold the pelvis in place unless you do exercise to strengthen them, and let it tilt anteriorly, which may increase the pressure on the lumbosacral region of the spine. This will accelerate the wearing of the joint. READ MORE

Do chiropractors typically take x-rays?
It is very common for a chiropractor to take x-rays before treatment to rule in/rule out any condition that may complicate your condition(s) unless your visit is purely wellness/preventative. There are chiropractors that take x-ray only for trauma related cases. READ MORE
Can a chiropractor relieve muscle pain?

Many extra-spinal issues that does not seem to be related to spine can be helped from chiropractic treatments. Acupuncture also helps with chronic pain related to previous injury. READ MORE
