Chiropractor Post Op



Recommended Posts

Do any of you see a chiropractor? How long did you wait after surgery to go? My back is killing me and would love to go get adjusted, but I don't if all that twisting and pushing is a bad idea. I will prob call the surgeons office today.

I waited a couple weeks. My chiropractor did a more gentle adjustment the first time, and after that, it was back to normal.

I have a rupture disc in L5 and tail bone and it really got mad the week after surgery but once I had a BM it was much better seems that there was a lot of gas sqeaming to be released. Try laxitive. gas x and heating pad first call doctor for advise after that.

My surgeon asked me to wait 6 weeks. I have had thoracic back pain since surgery, and am waiting very impatiently to see my chiropractor...about 2 more weeks now. The back pain really gets to me when I am working, so I can hardly wait to see him!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
