Me too. 12 hours in the waiting room after a car crash and left with a undiagnosed torn rotator cuff. They admitted homeless people with wheelchair full of luggage (people they knew by name) before me. It was a joke.

Abysmal patient satisfaction scores (one hospital in particular). This effects third party reimbursement--This is damage control. Do your research. Make informed decisions about your health.
It helps a little. I have severe sciatica pain in both legs. It's hard to walk or sit. It's been like this for 5 months and it's depressing. It's really wearing in me. It's unrelenting. Doctors here don't prescribe pain meds unless its something major. I can't afford a specialist doctor. My health insurance paid for my knee replacement but when it comes to back issues, nothing is covered.
At age 68, on occasion I stress my sciatic nerve at the gym. I've been lifting weights regularly for 54 years and have experienced a pain or two. The above exercises are spot on for pain relief and recovery. Highly recommend.
I use Piedmont and have since I was 19 years old, now 85! I have wonderful, caring Doctors, who treat me as a person, not a number. My husband also used Piedmont and was treated with care and respect.
I have sciatica nerve pain in both legs and I have spinal stenosis. Also I have four bulging discs and arthritis in other discs. What are some exercises I can do at home❤
My brother had Prostate Cancer and had surgery. Tjen my husband got it.. I knew something was going on with my husband because his first morning trip to the bathroom was looooong. I would be in the bed listening to this long stream, longer than the normal first morning trip to the bathroom. I told him something was wrong with that. He went to the doctor and it was discovered.
I wouldn't go to wellstar for anything the treatment is poor and they could careless about you Dr. Naik and Dr. Bakarich are the worst OB's I've seen in my life they only care about the money they make off of keeping us sick and mistreating us when we're sick and it's mostly done to African Americans

I tried this… and what happened is I’m sleeping in the floor cause I can’t move… the second i moved my legs from side to side I was screaming in pain… I’m 21 is this normal? Never in my life have I experienced pain like this.
OMG, I wasn’t afflicted with sciatica until I was 65. When it flares up, I scream in pain and struggle to get into a comfortable position. It’s on my lower left side and laying on my back and bringing my left knee up to my chest while hugging it, as seen in this video, seems to give it some relief.
I was always under the impression that sciatica was an old age problem because it didn’t bother me until I turned 65, but from what I’m reading here, that is definitely not the case. We have a 21-year-old, a 25-year-old and a 40-year-old here suffering terribly from it. I certainly pray that all of you, including myself, will get some much needed relief from this painful affliction.
I’m 27 and was diagnosed yesterday. The hip pain is excruciating! Real life cheat code. If you need to pick something up, first stand with your feet shoulder width apart and with the object between your toes, then bend your knees while arching your back simultaneously, finally come back up the exact same way you went down using ONLY your legs. My hamstrings burn from this technique but I could honestly benefit from the exercise and good posture.

Thanks for the explanation of the term “hammer curl” AND the reason to do BOTH the regular curl alternating with the hammer curl. I’ll add the hammer curl to my workout.
Had to get surgery for a serious tear in my left shoulder brought on my years in law enforcement and working out. Dr. Burns explained everything clearly and knew what he was doing. I am back to work full duty now and am on my way to being fully healed. His entire staff is also very awesome. I wish I got all their names but Catherine was very empathetic as was Dr. Burns and listened to any concerns. He works with you as a team during your recovery, actually LISTENS, and is very encouraging. When dealing with orthopedic issues and something as complex as a shoulder injury, don’t just settle for “doc down the street;”. Dr. Burns knows exactly what to do and even trains other surgeons. I know where I am going back to for any future orthopedic issues!
