RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Catherine - 02-27-2016 I think a break can continue to hurt for a long time after it heals. Perhaps he wants to X-ray to be sure things are in the right place. Doing a few simple exercises should really help you get back to normal. I know having back exercises has really helped my back. I don't have back pain anymore. You will be strong and healthy soon enough. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Ruth - 02-27-2016 Yes, exercise can help different parts of the body. Back exercises are very good for the back. I'm glad you get relief from them. I hurt my back once and had physical therapy for it and it really helped me, too. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Catherine - 02-29-2016 I have back and neck issues so really it is the bones in my spine that are out of alignment. I try to do all the exercises every day. I put a goal tracker app on my phone and I get to check off each one as soon as I have done it. It also keeps track of the days I miss so I try not to miss. Some of the neck exercises have to be daily. I need to shift my neck back into place and it is taking a long time because it can only be done very slowly. I know that it will take years, but I am glad that I am making progress at all. It took years for my neck to go out of alignment. It will take almost as long to get it back. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Ruth - 03-02-2016 Have you thought of seeing a Chiropracter? My insurance doesn't cover them so I don't go to one. But I know they can get the spine and neck into alignment faster than we can on our own. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Catherine - 03-02-2016 I have insurance and I have been seeing a chiropractor for 2 1/2 years. We have a regular treatment plan that involves adjustments and exercises. The improvement has been incredible. It is slow and steady, but I feel so much better. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Ruth - 03-03-2016 I'm glad you are getting better and see a chiropractor. I wish my insurance covered them but it does not. My ankle is so much better now. I have been making circles with my foot and it really loosened up my ankle. I don't think I need physical therapy now. It is almost back to normal. RE: Sorry I haven't been here much lately - Catherine - 03-03-2016 Doing exercises makes you your own physiotherapist. I am sure you will be on your feet and back to normal very soon now. I am lucky about my insurance. My job has its good points and bad points. Insurance is a real plus. I have to put the money out first, but they are very good about reimbursing me. |
