Learn How A Land O'lakes Chiropractic Office Helps Alleviate Pinched Nerves


By Sherwin Albao


The term pinched nerve describes what happens when compression caused by a misalignment of the spinal vertebrae causes an intervertebral disc to bulge out. The spinal vertebrae that make up the backbone are separated by these intervertebral discs. They act to protect the small hollow bones from rubbing against each other as the body moves. Individuals suffering mid-back pain can find help at the office of a Land O Lakes FL Chiropractor.

Each intervertebral disc has a tough outer shell and is filled with a gel-like substance. They are like small cushions. When the vertebrae are misaligned they cause compression and a portion of a disc extrudes between two vertebrae. The resulting mid-back pain may be excruciating.

Working at a desk for eight hours a day can lead to back pain. Your posture in a seated position causes the back to hunch over. Standing and walking posture can add to the problem. It is possible for a herniation to develop as a result.

When a job involves bending awkwardly, lifting heavy boxes or twisting the body, it can cause a pinched nerve. Any abrupt movement or being jerked forward and back in an automobile accident may be the cause. A chiropractor can relieve the pain and also give advice on how to avoid repeating injury in the future.

You will be evaluated by the chiropractor. You will describe the back pain, how it impacts your life and what may have caused it. Your back will be examined and palpated. An x-ray will be taken. Following the exam a conclusion can be made and the best care for your condition recommended.

It is often a series of spinal adjustments to return the vertebrae into the correct position. As the pressure causing the pinched nerve is reduced the pain is alleviated. The series of adjustments are done in the chiropractors office. As your condition improves you can look forward to resume working and enjoying life once again.
