Pain pain go away.........

Isn't it funny how we ignore our bodies every single day, or we pop pills to make it through the day. Pain is your body's way of telling you something is wrong.

I had a patient come in the other day as said, "Doc, I feel great, but I have this pretty bad pain in my elbow." I chuckled and said, how are you great if you have significant pain? Something to ponder, right.....

After examining it and learning more about the pain, I found that a fall on an outstretched hand was the culprit. A quick adjustment to the elbow and then he was actually great.

Moral of the story, we think pain is the normal when it is not.............Whether it's your elbow, your neck, your back, or your knee, get it checked out.

Til next time................
