CARE FOR MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN EARLY TO AVOID CHRONIC
DISEASES LATER
Musculoskeletal conditions, Williamson back
pain, neck pain and osteoarthritis of
the hip or knee, may precede chronic disease like cardiovascular
disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease or obesity. For example, those|Williamson
chiropractic patients who have osteoarthritis seem
to have a higher risk of acquiring
cardiovascular disease. The latest report reports
that those with musculoskeletal conditions enjoy a 17% increased risk of acquiring
a chronic disease. (1) What do the study’s researchers suggest?
Address musculoskeletal diseases early on in their development. Preventing and treating these musculoskeletal conditions early
may help prevent the development of chronic diseases later. Just what the connection is between musculoskeletal
conditions and chronic disease risk is not yet known. Your Williamson
chiropractor at Apple Country Chiropractic urges you to take care of your Williamson back pain and neck pain issues

TIP OF THE MONTH:
How Is Your Vitamin B12 Level?
Vitamin B12 keeps
the nerves and blood cells healthy. Mild B12 deficiency may be undetected.
More advanced B12 deficiency may produce anemia, fatigue,
pale skin, appetite drop, constipation, diarrhea, heart
palpitations, etc. One concerning condition linked
to B12 deficiency is subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord after
nitrous oxide anesthesia. (2) Recovering B12 status
can help. B12 may be delivered orally or via
injection. One injection study revealed that B12 relieved
low back pain and disability and lowered patients’ use
of paracetamol for pain relief. (3) B12 deficiency may be avoided by
eating meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and eggs or taking
B12 supplements. Talk with your Williamson chiropractor about the best way for you to
maintain a healthy B12 status!
