Currently I Have A Degree In Sport Management What Would Be My Option To Pursue Physical Therapy As A Career?

My grades are just O.K. they dont stand out or anything. Under a 3.0. I would even consider physical therapy assistant first if that would be a easier route

Should I Have An Epidural Steroid Injection If My Pain Is Currently Under Control?

I have a herniated disc in my neck and have had 4 episodes in the past 2 years. Each time I tried a different avenue of treatment, from chiropractic, to medication, to physical therapy. I had a flare up about 2 weeks ago and was refered by my orthopedist to a pain management dr. He perscribed me an oral steroid as well. The oral steroid got my pain under control, but I still have the appointment to have the injection this week. I’m affraid that in a few weeks I might have another flare up, which really affects my quality of life (I can’t move, can’t sleep, can’t lift anything, and it’s difficult to sit at my desk and do work, therefore it affects my productivity in the office as well). I’m hoping the injection will spare me from having another episode for at least another 6 months or so….But with my pain under control, I wonder if it’s neccessary. With my pain virtually gone, should I still go ahead with the ESI??

I Am Currently Suffering From A Whiplash Injury, Should I Feel Pain Directly On My Neck Bones?

Now that some of my muscles around my neck are beginning to relax, I feel that my neck hurts directly on my spine. When I told
my physical therapy guy about he pressed on it to see where exactly it hurt, I almost cried it hurt so badly. He didn’t really say anything about it. But it has Me quite worried, since it is even more sore today.
Any guesses?
