Chronic Lumbar Back Pain
Additional Articles about My Pain and Your Pain* Back Pain Help
I was in my early twenties when the pain condition changed. One day, I felt a sudden sharp and burning pain in my lower back and buttocks. This pain was far and above any other I had experienced before! I took an MRI test and the doctor told me that I had 2 herniated discs in my lower back. My L4/L5 and L5/S1 discs were bulging and I was told I now had advanced degenerative disc disease in my lower back as well. I was devastated. Chronic Lumbar Back Pain Wins the 1st Round !I continued treatment with both orthopedic doctors and various chiropractors. I was recommended as a good candidate for spinal surgery, but resisted the idea unless it became unavoidable. I received spinal manipulations and physical therapy. I was instructed to do special exercises for chronic lumbar back pain. I explored acupuncture, spinal decompression and Reiki therapy. I tried electrotherapy and heat and ice therapy, as well. Somehow my back pain continued…It was several years later, in my early thirties, that my worst pain experience occurred. I suffered an episode of
back spasm
so severe that I was admitted to the hospital. The pain was so intense that I was willing to do ANYTHING to be free of it. The doctors tried every type of
drug
to stop the muscles from contracting violently. One doctor even commented how he had never seen such an acute case of lumbar back pain in his entire career. He must have been 65 years old…
Chronic Lumbar Back Pain Wins Round 2 !I did recover and was amazed that in a couple of weeks my back was normal again. It made no sense to me or my doctors what had happened to cause the horrible pain or why it had calmed down just as quickly as it started. I was told that I should move forward with back surgery, or at least consider epidural injections for back pain. The only other solution offered to me was a cocktail of various pain relief medicines, anti-inflammatory drugs and muscle relaxers. I was not interested in any of these treatments, unless it became my only option. For the first time, I was beginning to question everything I had been told about my chronic lumbar back pain.I am a fitness professional. I teach martial arts and have also worked as a personal trainer. I have trained in Traditional Oriental Medicine and Anatomy for many years, in association with my martial arts interests. I have accomplished much in my training, earning 4 black belts of various Dan (degree) ranking, in 4 distinct martial art styles. I had the ability to do incredible things with my body during training, but sometimes I could not bend to put my shoes on! I began to do huge amounts of research on every conceivable topic related to back pain. I learned as much as possible about the problems that were affecting my poor degenerated spine. I learned about all the conditions that I had and many that I did not have as well. I learned about the back pain treatment options and what each was designed to do. It did not take me too long to realize that everything I had been told was not 100% factual… I Am Back In The Fight !The fact is that there is an epidemic of back pain in general, and specifically, chronic lumbar back pain. Back pain is the second leading cause for a visit to a doctor, ranking closely behind common respiratory infections. It is also the most common reason why people will miss a day of work. It is rare that I can go a full week without seeing the devastating effects of back pain on a person’s life.The medical community has put up a valiant effort to help people find relief from back pain. The combination of medical doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, acupuncturists, Reiki practitioners, orthotic manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies have joined forces in an ever expanding crusade against back pain. I do not think that medicine has taken back pain lightly. I do feel that there has been a huge emphasis placed on the
TREATMENT of back pain, rather than finding a true CURE.
NO MORE BACK PAIN =* No more back pain management * No more back pain treatments * No more exponentially growing source of $$$
I was one of the lucky few who actually found a TRUE CURE for my chronic lumbar back pain. I no longer suffer with any symptoms. I am not under any medical care. I do not rely on medicines or treatments. I am completely cured of back pain. I am whole once again, and most of all, I am free…
I am certainly not knocking any healthcare provider who spends their life trying to help others manage their back pain. However, I am clearly stating my opinion that REAL CURES for back pain do exist for 99% of back pain sufferers. The research work of a few incredible medical professionals has proven that back pain is easy to cure. I owe my life and my countless thanks to these doctors who showed me the way to cure my own chronic lumbar back pain…forever.
