So you’ve been diagnosed with a concussion. Now what? Your doctor may have told you to take it easy for 24 hours, to avoid certain activities like using screens or to go on “cognitive rest.” But what if you’re still experiencing some headaches, dizziness, neck pain or vision problems two weeks later? Physical therapy can play a role in restoring neurological function that isn’t getting back to normal.
A laminectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing part or all of the lamina (the back part of a vertebra that covers the spinal canal) to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots. It is often performed to treat conditions that cause spinal nerve compression, such as spinal stenosis, herniated discs, or bone spurs.
The Sacroiliac (SI) joint often plays a critical yet under-recognized role in lower back pain, a crucial point emphasized during the National Spine Health Foundation’s Spine-Talk “Is My Back Pain Actually Hip Pain? What You Need to Know About the SI Joint” by Dr. Rita Roy and spine expert Dr. David Polly.
If you suffer from upper back pain, it's time to reclaim your comfort and regain control of your daily life. Relief from this debilitating condition is within reach.
Certain exercises can help strengthen the muscles that support the lower back to reduce pain and prevent injury. These movements could be done with or without added weight.
