What Are the Causes of Back Pain in Chesapeake?

There are a number of causes of back pain which include; arthritis, internal organ problems, kidney stones, kidney infections, blood clots, work injuries, and obesity. While the previously listed problems can cause back pain, the most common cause of back pain is spinal misalignment or subluxation.

Small misalignments in the spine can cause swelling and pressure around nerves exiting the spine. This pressure can cause anything from minor discomfort to extreme pain. Our chiropractors are skilled at locating areas of spinal misalignment.

In many cases back pain may come and go in the early stages of the problem. Many patients wait until the problem has become constant and severe before taking action. In some cases this can lead to permanent problems.

If you are struggling with back pain it's important to take action early. It gives our chiropractors the best chance at helping you make a full recovery.

“I have experienced moderate to severe lower back and hip pain. I am now pregnant with my third child and the pain had become so intense that there were days I was completely immobile. I had been using Tylenol multiple times per day just to get by with minimal activity. Since seeking chiropractic care, I have been able to tolerate more activity and gave ceased using pain medication. Dr. Chad and his practice have been such an answer to prayer in my life, and I am now able to look ahead to the duration of this pregnancy with hope and faith that my pain can be managed.” -Amber D.

“I began to have extreme neck pain. I didn’t sleep well from tossing and turning, while trying to get comfortable. I then began to notice a bump on my back between my shoulder blades. I had never been to a chiropractor before, so I didn’t know what to expect. Within one to two adjustments I had relief. My neck and back all began to feel wonderful! I was so impressed with Dr. Chad, I made my husband start seeing him and have referred two other people to seek his care. Listen to your body. Don’t ignore it. Open your mind and let Dr. Chad help with the pain and discomfort.” -Alicia K.

“I suffered for two years with chronic chest pain, shortness of breath and dysphagia. I would also experience occasional back spasms that would leave me immobile for hours at a time. I went through twenty-seven different tests all coming back negative and giving no relief. Dr. Chad did what a cardiologist, gastroenterologist, ENT, allergist, and pulmonologist could not- find what was causing my debilitating illness. Dr. Chad goes beyond the call of duty to ensure his patients are on the road to good health. I can’t say enough things about him.”     -Rick J.
