Chiropractor In Lakeland FL Assists In Helping Locals Get Hip Pain Relief

By Andreas Paschar


Hip pain occurs in different people for different reasons. In one elderly individual it may be osteoarthritis that often is part of the aging process. In a young adult it may be the result of an automobile accident. In middle age a subluxation of the spine might be causing it. A leading Lakeland FL Chiropractor can systematically rule out the wrong reasons until the correct one is discovered.

This stress, when combined with imbalance may progress from piriformis syndrome to sciatica. The large lumbar nerves are affected by sciatica that causes severe pain in the buttocks, the hip and extending down the leg. It sometimes affects both legs, but, usually one or the other. Pain results from walking, running or sitting at a desk. It is even made worse by picking up an object off the floor.

Piriformis syndrome can develop into low back or hip pain and numbness in the legs and feet. This muscle is located in the gluteal area and attaches from the sacrum to the femur. It is located on top of, and can pinch the, sciatic nerve.

This, and other causes of hip pain can be identified by your chiropractor. A full evaluation of your condition has to be completed before any care is given. This includes a physical exam, range of motion testing and one or more x-rays. You may be asked to demonstrate how you walk.

Following an evaluation you will be advised as to whether manual adjustments are appropriate in your case. If they are, a series of office visits will be scheduled to receive them. Pressure is applied for the purpose of relieving the pain caused by a pinched nerve.

After the series of adjustments return your spine to its correct position, you might look forward to a return to work and activities you enjoyed prior to the onset of the pain. In most cases, this lessening of pain provides long lasting results. No one should have to accept a painful condition as something you must live with.
