Hi Helen. There can be a number of reasons for pain in this area. it is worth consulting a Dr or Physio regarding this issue. Sorry I cannot be more help on this platform.
@@stronglinesphysio9130 Yes, it most certainly does.but anyways, no thank you, I do appreciate that offer but this one is way over my head. No disrespect, much love to you. May God Bless.
I am a huge fan of Dr Stuart's work, but he does not always get it right: This is one of his failed patients ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kDK1ZDqY9fM.html
It’s so crazy how awful some people get treated in medicine. I’ve been a Union electrician for 23 years. I pay anywhere from $9/ hour to $13/ hour depending on the year I’m working. I calculate I’ve paid around $425,000 for healthcare in my 23 years. I’ve had 3 microdiscectomy surgeries in 12 years. All due to 24 hour pain from herniated discs that could never be relaxed. I get small flare ups where I’ll have lateral tilt and strong low back pain (I’ve had a numb right foot for 22 years) and a feeling like my back is bone on bone. I have NEVER had a dr even look at me over besides a MRI l, X-ray, Advil and send me to PT. My PT has always tried to spend some time with me, but they don’t pattern PT to me, they use the book and do the same for everyone. I feel like the micro movements are my issues. I wish so much I could take my $425,000 back and give all to Stu for a visit.
Can this sort of physiotherapy actually fix a Spondy grade 2 (L4/L5) combined with a disc bulge ? Sure it might help but - it is surely never going to fix a mechanical problem like this is it ?
Hey. How are you getting on? I have just set up a spine specialist service www.disc-pro.com if you are still in need. Prof McGill has just done another amazing podcast discussing this with Peter Attia
Amazing. he gets into detailed examples that illistrate a principle and expertise, which gives hope. There is a better way, the doctors who gaslight you are inconpetent, and no, your sotuation isnt hopleess.
Obviously Dr McGill thinks sitting at a desk causes back pain. But even if I retire, how can I avoid sitting at all? What am I supposed to do for the better part of the day? Stand all day? Sitting in a recliner causes more backpain. So, I am not getting this answer from Dr McGill's videos, what are we supposed to do all day if not sit. How about just lying on bed? does it help?
The best position is the next position. Ive heard this once...i think the key is to switch position often throughout the day..i got a standing desk and switch often and stretch every so often in between task, hope it helps. I do miss sitting.... driving around and traveling is still an issue🤷♀️
Hey. So for certain types of back pain - sitting will hurt. It is very much dependant on the structures that are at fault and generating pain. If sitting it a pain trigger then we need to look at posture, we need to look at muscular endurance around your spine and the time you are sat. Check out www.disc-pro.com
Clinically, Arthritis cannot be reversed. The bones/deformity that have overgrown, cannot shrink on their own. Arthritis also means bone-bone friction mostly because of reduction in joint space or loss of lubricating fluid or loss of cartilage. But when the condition is mild, one can manage it in much better way then someone who has moderate to severe OA.
Osteoarthritis is not necessarily a pain generator. It depends on what triggers your pain and what makes it feel better. Have you had any input as yet?
Did these for over a year. Read Back Mechanic and Gift of Injury. Had a video call with Brian Carroll. Saw a McGill Master Clinician in person for the 3 hour assessment and follow ups. Spent thousands of dollars. All this did absolutely nothing for my L4/L5 disc bulge. I am still in daily pain.
Omg! The right toe went numb this morning when I went for a run!! I’ve had some back issues for the last week where I have problems my lower back is spasming and I can’t stand up straight. I guess now I know what’s up!
We humans have wonderful differences. Just because it is different does not necessarily mean it is the cause of pain. It will be an environmental exposure to a physiological weakness. Modifying movements, postures and loads will help.
The issue is not the disc being injured but how the disc can to be injured. If you don’t fix that then you are just going to re-injure the disc - stem cells or not. Like giving an alcoholic a new liver but they carry on drinking.
This is amazing! I want to be empowered too. The physio I have right now didn't even touch my back at all and said my own mind was amplifying my pain. I'm feeling really let down right now by the lack of diagnosis I've experienced. But I am now hopeful that I can fix this lower back pain I am suffering.
Exactly my thoughts - as a tennis player with old martial arts & rugby injuries I need a long term evidence based strategy. His book is going on everyone’s Christmas present list
Many clients get trapped in habitual postures and repetitive movement patterns that cause their pain. Ask yourself, "What motions, postures, loads and activities are triggering your pain?" Instead of paying clinicians to perform procedures, we need a health care system that trains clinicians to perform accurate, precise physical assessments and then prescribe functional, pain-free postures and movement patterns.
