Pain
Pain is a symptom that the body uses to tell us that something
is damaged and is intended to both draw our attention towards
fixing the problem and also to limit our use of that system.
This
does not mean that all pain is site specific. Meaning a painful
tooth can be just that, or a heart problem, a jaw joint problem,
a neck problem, a stress problem, or combinations of some of these.
There are also other problems that cause a painful tooth.
One
needs to trace the pain from its origin to its source.
How many times have we heard, " it must be in your head", or "you're
just getting old". These are excuses fabricated to cover up a
lack of knowledge or desire to be thorough.
For
example if one has lower back pain and the Xray is read by a radiologist,
it may come back as negative, but a chiropractor may see other
important things in it and a naturopath even others. Even if the
MRI and Xray are negative, why doesn't someone look to the feet
for the initial problem as in pronation/supination? Or why can't
most physicians help heal up a chronic strain? It is usally because
they do not have the tools, time, knowledge or all the facts in
the case. Remember that a neurosurgeon and osteopathic surgeon
do not examine feet. It could be as simple as slipping some five
dollar orthotics in your shoes or even changing to the proper
shoes that cure this problem. This advise alone could save save
hundreds or thousands of dollars in surgery, chiropractic manipulations,
or physical therapy.
This
is why we have to follow the course of all nerves that the pain
comes from and examine the entire structure for dysfunction.
In
my consultations I will offer many various and complete reasons
for the particular pain complex with ways to diagnose and if wanted
treat the problem. There is always a definite reason for pain,
even if the western analysis doesn't discover it. Just think thirty
years ago lots of people were dying from lymes disease but were
misdiagnosed because there was no proper lab test.
