You have a bit more thorough exam and you may or may not have an x-ray, depending on the chiropractor’s philosophy and approach. In either case, they may recommend a course of anti-inflammatory drugs, a cortisone injection, surgery, or they send you off to physical therapy. Spinal pathologies are mostly what conventional medical professionals are screening for and they aren’t too concerned about the predisposing causes I am going to talk about. The bottom line is signs of spinal degeneration and disc pathologies indicate a long-term “wear and tear” process…not a good thing. It is occurs in the joints that are least stable and have the worst movement mechanics, not aging and “normal” wear and tear. We simply DO NOT SEE THIS! What we do see is wear and tear in selective joints in selective people. If this was true, we would find that EVERYONE has an equal amount of disc and joint wear in EVERY JOINT IN THEIR BODY AS THEY GET OLDER. Most patients buy into this line of thinking because it makes intuitive sense, but in reality it doesn’t. They commonly tell patients that the problem is due to “aging” or “normal wear and tear.” These are the lamest reasons I have ever heard since my time working in this field. They are unable to explain why you have this “damage” in your spine. Or they do see a bulging, herniated, or degenerated disc and this is what they tell you. They are unable to explain why you are in pain when they don’t see any problems on your x-ray or MRI.
You have a not so thorough exam, an x-ray or maybe an MRI and they don’t see any problems…no fracture, no bulging or herniated disc, no spinal degeneration (arthritis).

There comes a time when your back becomes such a nuisance you need professional help. If any of you have been lucky enough to experience all three scenarios like I have, you know how bad back pain can be, especially when it is so difficult and painful to get out of a chair, lift a leg up, or turn over in bed. I discuss more on why these scenarios happen later in the article. It does get better, but always seems to come back from time to time. There was no immediate “incident” that set it off. It may have been from some activity you did from the previous day or it started for no apparent reason. Scenario 3: The muscles in your back begin to tighten up and you develop a deep dull ache. Scenario 2: You bend forward to lift something heavy and when you go to lift, again your back “goes out” and you feel a sharp, stabbing pain. You have difficulty understanding how this could possibly happen. Scenario 1: You are getting yourself ready to go about your day, you bend forward to put on your socks or pick something up and all of a sudden your back “goes out” and you feel a sharp, stabbing pain. I have been treating spine problems for over 20 years and I have observed that back pain presents itself in one of three scenarios… I will also share with you the best thing you can start doing right now that has helped me and thousands of my patients overcome back pain.
If you or someone close to you has ever had their back “go out” or developed a chronic, recurring backache, this article explains why. If you do read it, you will know more about the cause and prevention of back pain than most health professionals who treat this problem. I know most of you won’t read it because of its length. This is probably the most important article I have written to date.
