In the early 1990's I made a decision that I
wanted to be a Doctor of Chiropractic, and help people in a positive way
naturally, without the use of drugs or surgery. I could not be happier
with my decision. Every day I get to help people using my hands as my
primary instrument of care, it is a blessing.
All Over the News Currently is the Reports of People at Risk of Meningitis - 13,000 People According to the CDC
All over the news currently is the reports of people at risk of
meningitis, 13,000 people according to the CDC, who received injections of a
steroid. There is now 105 cases over 23 states linked to this one drug,
including five in Maryland and 23 in Virginia, each with a death. This
type of injection is often used to help treat lower back pain. Now I'm
not saying never to get this type of treatment, I have recommended to patients
in the past that this might be an appropriate next step for them, but I do feel
that this should not be the first thing done for a patient in pain. This
current fungal form of meningitis is a brain infection that requires months of
intravenous antibiotics to cure. And unlike other types of meningitis the
symptoms can appear gradually. Including sensitivity to light, stiff
neck, weakness, numbness, and slurred speech. None of that sounds too
fun.
Chiropractic is the Safe and Natural Approach to the Care of a Patient
There is a time and place for drugs in the care of a patient with
back pain, but I think taking a natural safe approach to the care of a patient
is a logic decision, and that is exactly what Chiropractic care is, safe and
natural.
