THE PANDEMIC OF LOW BACK PAIN
Here is a pandemic chiropractic is built
for: low back pain! A recent study in Healthcare journal
presents that “Low back pain is a pandemic and costly
musculoskeletal condition in the United States.” This study considered the cost-effectiveness of chiropractic and physical
therapy for low back pain. Interestingly, their next
study is set to ascertain if they reduce
the need for expensive health services like
surgery, injections, and ER visits. For the moment, though, they found
that the total average cost was $48.56 lower for chiropractic care
than PT and the daily adjusted life years was 0.0043 higher for
chiropractic than PT patients. They deduced that
chiropractic was confirmed to be a cost-effective means
to help adults with at least 3 weeks of low back
pain over six months. (1) Come to Wilson Family Chiropractic to find out for

Millville CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
B Vitamins for Diabetic Nerve Pain
Chronic diabetic neuropathic pain is challenging. Inflammation plays a part. Spinal
proinflammatory cytokines have a role. A new
study using rats showed that B vitamins
not only suppress but greatly suppress
this pain by curbing the proinflammatory cytokines. (2) Sadly,
vitamin B12 deficiency is quite common in type II
diabetic patients who are prescribed metformin, a common diabetic
drug. (3) Researchers noted links to anemia
and neuropathy with metformin use in diabetic patients. (4) Wilson Family Chiropractic urges our diabetic patients are urged to test
their vitamin B levels! B vitamins are very important for health!
