I don’t know where to start, so I’ll just jump in in the middle and with both feet. First if I were a medical professional I’d be asking you if you hurt hourself recently like stretched before the pain began, or twisted your leg somehow or tripped or fell down a stair or two. You have to first rule out whether it’s a muscular, bone or nerve problem and each doctor does their own thing.
If you had a pull, a muscle spasm, a neck or back problem the first person I’d go to is a chirporactor. He can realign you and then you take it easy for a couple of weeks and the pain will go away.
Now if it’s something you think runs in your dna that you’ve inherited then that’s for the doctors to figure out and they will take lots and lots of tests costing your family lots of money and all they know is what it is not.
I can’t remember right now which is the better the CT scan or the MRI but one sees better than the other what’s wrong so you really don’t need both, and both are expensive. And you don’t need either if it’s a pulled muscle all you need is realigned.
Here’s what you do, for an injury put cold packs where it hurts to bring down the swelling and take Advis (if you’re of age to do that, one Advil AFTER a meal and see if that stops or slows down the pain. If it does then you merely hurt yourself doing some exercise or something. It’s when the Advil and cold packs don’t work that perhaps there is a tear or something more major done to the ligaments and you need to take bed rest for a short while.
I go to chiropractors because I don’t like medication. Chripractors can feel your bones and down your spine and can tell if things are or arent alligned properly and they can fix it with their hands. Chiropractors want to be at the same doctor level but in some states they still aren’t considered doctors, but no matter they still do an excellent job.
Doctors on the other hand give medication instead of immediately fixing things and they prescribe exercise which may exasorbate the problem.
try one or two appointments with a chiropractor. NEVER tell them you’ve seen doctors or you’ve been receiving treatment elsewhere or they won’t work on you.
