Can Chiropractor Help In Reducing Pain Due To Disc Prolapse?

Hi, I have a disc prolapse between T1 and T2. The doctors have advised me against any nerve root injections or surgery and have put me on medication. The progress is very slow and the pain is excruciating on random days. What do you suggest me to do? Is it something a chiropractor can help me with?

Hello,

If he do disc decompression with manually by traction or with muscle strengthening exercises means useful. Some times it may worsen the problem in inexperienced hands so final goal of any procedure is to relieve pain if it is not relieved by medication and physiotherapy then next procedure is surgical decompression. So please consult with your neurophysician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
