CARE FOR MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN EARLY TO AVOID CHRONIC
DISEASES LATER
Musculoskeletal conditions like Sandy Springs neck and back pain and osteoarthritis of
the hip or knee, may lead to chronic disease like cardiovascular
disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease or obesity. Such as, those|Sandy Springs
chiropractic patients who have osteoarthritis seem
to have an elevated risk of getting
cardiovascular disease. The newest report states
that patients with musculoskeletal conditions have
a 17% higher possibility of acquiring
a chronic disease. (1) What do the study’s authors suggest?
Manage musculoskeletal diseases at the
beginning in their development. Preventing and treating these musculoskeletal conditions in a timely fashion
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 Sandy Springs
chiropractor at Cross Chiropractic Center encourages you to address your Sandy Springs 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 result in anemia, tiredness,
pale skin, appetite drop, constipation, diarrhea, heart
palpitations, etc. One concerning condition related
to B12 deficiency is subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord after
nitrous oxide anesthesia. (2) Recovering B12 level
can be valuable. B12 may be delivered orally or via
injection. One injection study showed that B12 relieved
low back pain and disability and lowered patients’ use
of paracetamol for pain relief. (3) B12 deficiency may be evaded by
eating meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and eggs or taking
B12 supplements. Talk with your Sandy Springs chiropractor about the best way for you to
maintain a healthy B12 status!
