    When is Back Pain Serious? Hello everyone! Dr. Jeremy Andrews here, Doctor of Chiropractic at West Chiropractic. Today, I'm going to explain when back pain becomes serious and requires immediate medical attention. As chiropractors, we often manage back pain, but certain red flags signal the need for urgent care. Recognising Serious Back Pain While chiropractors diagnose and treat various spine-related issues, some symptoms indicate that you need to seek immediate medical attention. One critical condition we look for is cauda equina syndrome, which can have serious implications if not treated promptly. Cauda Equina Syndrome This condition occurs when the spinal cord is compressed, usually by a central disc prolapse, affecting the bundle of nerves at the lower end of the spinal cord (the "cauda equina," resembling a horse's tail). Immediate action is necessary to prevent long-term damage. Symptoms of Cauda Equina Syndrome: Bowel or Bladder Incontinence: Inability to control bowel or bladder functions. Saddle Anesthesia: Numbness in the groin, buttocks, and inner thighs. If you experience these symptoms along with back pain and leg pain, seek emergency medical attention immediately. Types of Disc Prolapses Lateral Disc Prolapse: The disc bulges out to the side, causing pain, numbness, and tingling down the leg. This is commonly treated by chiropractors. Central Disc Prolapse: The disc bulges towards the spinal cord, potentially causing cauda equina syndrome. This requires urgent referral to a spinal surgeon. Management of Cauda Equina Syndrome Patients who have had cauda equina syndrome can be managed conservatively after clearance from a spinal specialist. Treatment includes gentle chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, acupuncture, and core stability exercises. Exercises for Stability (Post-Approval) If you've had a disc issue and have been cleared by a medical professional, here are some exercises to help maintain stability: Pelvic Tilts: Sit and rotate your pelvis forward and backward. Ensure your tummy is tucked in and your glutes are activated. Dead Bug Exercise: Lie on your back, keep your core tight. Lower one leg slowly while keeping your back flat. Alternate legs, making sure not to let your back arch. Bird Dog Exercise: Start on your hands and knees, shoulders over wrists. Extend one leg and the opposite arm while keeping your core stable. Alternate sides, focusing on activating the glutes. Important Reminders Only perform these exercises if you've been cleared by your doctor or spinal specialist. If you experience any pain, numbness, or tingling, stop immediately and seek professional advice. Conclusion Recognising serious back pain and knowing when to seek urgent care can prevent long-term complications. If you experience symptoms of cauda equina syndrome, act quickly. For those managing post-disc issue recovery, proper exercises with professional approval can help maintain spinal stability.

    What does a pulled muscle in your back feel like? This can be one of the most debilitating pains you can have. It can feel like your back has completely snapped in half and there is no let up. No position helps the pain and you cannot get comfortable. If a professional told you ‘you have just pulled a muscle' you might just slap them in the face as this cannot be just a muscle. It also happens at the most inconvenient time, you have been working like a dog for 6 months straight since that last summer holiday and you have been looking forward to that special week off in Christmas.

    What is a cervicogenic headache? This is a headache arising from the neck. They can trigger further headaches like a migraine or cluster headache but only when severe. ‘Cervicogenic' means perceived in the head. It Is fascinating to me that we can get pain in one part of our body that is completely unrelated to that area, similar to sciatica causing pain in your leg when the root of the issue is coming from the base of the spine. A cervicogenic headache stems from the neck and can travel up around the head. Grab a copy of my book here The Secret Cure To Back Pain
