QuestionDr. I'm a 38 yr old male & have been active in sports all my life- about 3 months ago I awoke w/ a severe sharp pain in my lower back & pelvis, it has since spread into my left leg(deep in rear & in my upper calf). some evening it is so bad i can barely rest. I don't recall injuring it but the day prior to my first pain I was lifting & push starting an ATV. I have never experienced this before & consider myself to be strong & healthy. 800mgs of Ibuprofen & Celebrex help somewhat, as well as certain stretches but the stretching can be very painful- touching my toes produces excruciating pain.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Answerlow back pain, sports athlete, sciatica, pain medication, touching toes,
staten island low back pain, staten island sciatica,
Hello Justin,
I am sorry to hear of your sciatica and lower back pain. I applaud you on
continuing to be active well into your 30's.
".....about 3 months ago I awoke w/ a severe sharp pain in my lower back &
pelvis, it has since spread into my left leg(deep in rear & in my upper
calf).....", Three months ago you started with back pain, , , what did you do
four months ago?, three months and a week ago?, three months and a day ago?,-
to start this problem? Did you slip, trip, fall, have a car accident four
months ago?, did you lift something heavy three months and a week ago?, did
you get a new different bed three months and a day ago?,--- what seemed to
bring this on?
Then the lower back pain progressed into sciatica. This is a very common
progression. "Low Back pain"- means little to me as a doctor - it describes
the place of your pain, BUT- it could be a kidney, a sprain/strain, a
herniated disc, a contusion, even something terrible like a tumor; Have you
gone for an evaluation, have you gotten a basic Xray?, CT or MRI scan?,
EMG/ncv nerve test? I will assume you went somewhere for an examination-
because you are utilizing 800mg Ibuprofen & Celebrex, someone gave you a
prescription, so I assume you had some kind of examination.
"Sciatica"- this is another DESCRIPTIVE term, but not a good DIAGNOSTIC term.
What could be causing the irritation of the sciatic nerve?- again: a
sprain/strain, a herniated disc, a contusion, even something terrible like a
tumor; perhaps even an infection!- do you take any injections into your
buttocks?- an injection could irritate, 'nick', infect the sciatic nerve; did
you receive any trauma to the nerve- a kick, an impact?
Your condition, your problem, FIRST started whispering to you- talking to you
three months ago. You did what many people do, , , , take a pill, and hope
it will go away on it's own. This is a common approach to many health
problems. Sometimes this approach- i.e.: a painkiller or is okay---- the
'medicine' does not cure the problem, but the problem is self-resolving,
things seem to get better, and the 'medicine' (pain killer) masks the pain,
masks the problem for a while, and then- sometimes things do get better on
their own.
Unfortunately, sometimes things do - not - get better on their own. The
longer a condition is allowed to progress, the longer a problem is allowed to
gain momentum, the longer an issue is allowed to 'fester' and grow,,,, the
more difficult it is to correct and regain health.
The painkillers, anti-inflamatories you are taking- kill the pain, take care
of the symptom, BUT what is the cause? The SYMPTOM is relieved, while the
problem PROGRESSED!
Over time, when a problem is ALLOWED to grow worse- by using pain medications,
creams, massages, etc., over time the problem grows worse and the SYMPTOMATIC
RELIEF of a pill, potion, lotion works less and less. Many medications are
even marked: '....For Symptomatic Relief only...'-
the container TELLS YOU it is only working on symptoms, not upon the CAUSE of
the problem!
"....I have never experienced this before & consider myself to be strong & healthy.....",
well, I hate to be abrupt, IF you are strong and 'healthy',,, then why are you hurting?
You are hurting, you have a health problem, no? From: http://www.who.int/about/definition/en/print.html - the World Health Organization:
""""Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.""""
It does not sound like you are in "...a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being ."
Given the description you have given me, I highly recommend visiting a Doctor of Chiropractic for an evaluation. Perhaps after chiropractic examination a regimen of care may be appropriate for you, perhaps referral is appropriate for you - first you need to be EXAMINED.
If you have pain, one of your symptoms, you certainly have a
nerve that is irritated, inflammed, 'bothered' by your spine being out of
proper alignment, your spine NOT moving properly. You may not have had a
'pinched nerve' - the way lay people, non-chiropractic people use the term, ,
, , , but you certainly had some degree of 'pinched nerve' (= inflammed,
irritated, 'bothered nerve') or you would not feel pain ! ? !
To help explain the procedures many Doctors use in their offices to address problems as you have described; and the protocol I follow in my Staten Island Chiropractic Office, please take a look
at these information handouts that I routinely give out:
PAIN
Pain is a 憆ed light on the dashboard?
Pain is your body telling you that something is wrong.
Pain is your body 'talking to you', is your body talking?- or shouting?
That RED LIGHT on the dashboard of your car-
-- do you ignore it until the car breaks down,
or do you get it checked and correct the problem?
Pain,
pain in your body-
-- do you ignore it until your body breaks down,
or do you get it checked and correct the problem?
Pain,
do you cover up the pain by taking a painkiller?
do you cover up the pain with a pill, potion, or lotion?
Take a painkiller,
mask the pain,
and allow a problem to progress in your body?
NOTICE ON PAIN RELIEVERS:
Label changes ORDERED by FDA; the FDA announced proposed label changes for
OTC over-the-counter pain relievers to include the potential for stomach
bleeding and liver damage (FDA news 206- 207; 12-9-06) ;
The American Heart Association issued a scientific statement recommending
medical doctors change the way they prescribe OTC pain relievers from a first
choice to an alternate of recommending non-pharmacologic treatment (AHA
statement 2-26-07).
NSAID Acceleration of ARTHRITIS; an important side effect of Aspirin and other
NSAIDS is that it will inhibit cartilage repair and accelerate cartilage
destruction ( Journal of Rheumatology, 1982; 9: 3- 5 ). Many times people
take NSAIDS for the pain of Arthritis, not realizing these drugs may make
the underlying condition worse. These medications cover up the pain,
and cause the problem to worsen.
Pain can often be the result of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex.
Vertebral Subluxation ( 慥SC?, 憇ubluxation?)
Vertebral Subluxation is actually a quite common condition. Doctors of
Chiropractic look for pathological conditions which may require referral to
other specialties, and also look for 慡ubluxation? Other disciplines
look for pathology, but overlook the importance of alignment and movement in
the spine which affects our nervous system (the master control system- ALL
health disciplines learn this). VSC- 慡ubluxation??can be the cause
of many symptoms and conditions.
Only a Doctor of Chiropractic will evaluate and treat for VSC, as
well as other pathology.
The course of VSC is highly variable. Some patients with VSC literally
cannot walk, yet other patients with similar test findings may be able to run
marathons or lift heavy weights. Some patients immediately develop symptoms
related to the VSC, some patients take years to develop symptoms. Some
people suffer for only a few days with pain and symptoms, some people suffer
for months. Some people recover in days, some take months or years, depending
upon severity of the condition.
A subluxation interferes with the proper functioning of the nervous system
(the master system which controls and coordinates all function within the
body) and may cause various other conditions, symptoms and problems.
The Vertebral Subluxation Complex describes what happens when spinal bones
lose their normal movement patterns and position. When subluxated, joints are
in a stressed, vulnerable, compromised condition. Subluxation may cause
Arthritis, Disk Herniation, or aggravate such conditions.
Vertebral Subluxation cannot be corrected through chemicals
(medicine), stretching, yoga, vitamins or physical therapy alone.
Subluxation- a neuro/skeletal/muscular- mechanical- problem requires a
mechanical correction- - - a manipulation, best performed
with the chiropractic adjustment.

The above information explains to my Staten Island Pain patients the dangers
of relying upon pills, potions and lotions to correct a health problem! If
the patient realizes that the pill or cream is just taking pain away, just
covering up a problem---- that is okay, after all who wants pain; BUT some
evaluation/ treatment needs to be done as to the CAUSE of the pain !!!
You talk about still being athletic and competitive at this stage in life. As an athlete
you may want to see a Doctor of Chiropractic with a specialty in Sports injuries.
Yes,,, Doctors of Chiropractic do have different specialties! To see a list of the different credentials the Doctor of Chiropractic can attain- see:
http://www.acatoday.org/pdf/ApprovedChiropracticSpecialtyPrograms.pdf
For instance- I have a Diplomate from the American Chiropractic Board of
Sports Physicians (DACBSP). I would look for a doctor with additional
credentials!
You talk about athletic performance- this may be interesting to you- IF you wish to improve performance:
Athletic Performance Improvement, Accelerated Recovery
Chiropractic is well known to improve athletic performance, prevent sport injury, and accelerate recovery from injury or hard training. With Doctors of Chiropractic serving on almost every nation抯 Olympic Team, with Chiropractic holding official status with the USOC and serving almost every US Olympic Athlete: the results of chiropractic cannot be denied.
Coaches and athletes are aware of terms such as
enhanced performance, performance improvement, .
accelerated recovery, restoration and regeneration. .
Many coaching conferences discuss strategies on these aspects of exercise, competition, sports and athleticism.
An interesting study was performed and published way back in 1991. The January 1991 issue of the Journal of Chiropractic Research and Clinical Investigation published findings that demonstrate significant increases in athletic performance after a twelve week program of Chiropractic treatment.
Athletic Ability Research:
Male and female athletes between the ages of 18 and 42, representing a variety of sports backgrounds, were recruited to participate in this study. None had ever before been under chiropractic care. Each of these participants underwent eleven separate tests, each test designed to measure a specific aspect of athletic performance. Then, half the participants were evaluated through chiropractic analysis and placed on a twelve week program of chiropractic treatment ( consistent regimen of chiropractic, similar to a consistent regimen of physical athletic training/ exercise ). ( measured aspects: side step test, dodging run, right boomerang run, modified bass tests of dynamic balance, vertical power jump, standing broad jump, distance perception jump, horizontal linear space test, nelson hand reaction test, nelson speed of movement test, nelson choice of response-movement test )
All subjects continued to train and practice as usual in their sports. At the half-way point of six weeks, they were all reevaluated and changes in scores for each group were compared. All increases in performances by each group were measured by the average percent of change in all eleven tests combined.
The control group, those not receiving chiropractic care, showed slight improvement in eight of eleven tests ( this group had been training 慳s usual?for the time period ). By combining the average percentages of change on each test it was found that the control group showed an overall improvement of 4.5%.
Those receiving chiropractic treatment (along with their 憉sual training?, the test group, had dramatically different results. They showed improvement on all eleven tests for a total 10.7% average increase after six weeks. And when retested again after the second six week period of care this test group demonstrated a remarkable 16.7% average increase in athletic ability.
( consider that one/ onehundredth of a second ( 1/100th ) is the difference between win ?lose,,, 16.7% is HUGE )
What Do Chiropractors Do?
Chiropractors analyze the structure of the body, looking for misalignments, primarily in the spine, and also the extremities. Spinal misalignments, termed vertebral subluxations, irritate the nerves which in turn inhibits the body抯 ability to function optimally. Like a high performance automobile, the human structure must be balanced and in alignment to be at it抯 best. A Ferrari with pistons that don抰 fire in sequence, wheels that are out of balance or alignment, and high performance specifications that are improperly set will not only have it抯 performance compromised but will also have dramatically increased potential for parts to wear out and breakdown. The human body, far more delicate and complicated than even the most advanced automobile is similar. If the framework, particularly the spine, isn抰 properly aligned and balanced- the body cannot perform to it抯 potential and is more susceptible to illness and injury, with slower recovery when injury does occur.
What Do Vertebral Subluxations Do?
Vertebral subluxations cause nerve conduction interference. This inhibits millions of messages from the brain from flowing smoothly along the nerves and in this in turn interferes with the coordination of the actions of the body. The only health care provider trained to diagnose and correct vertebral subluxations is the Doctor of Chiropractic. Like a properly tuned Ferrari, the chiropractic patient athlete, when properly aligned, functions at a level of peak performance.
Famous Athletes Utilize Chiropractics.
Many athletes have discovered the relationship between proper spinal alignment and their own level of achievement. San Francisco Forty-Niner Greats Joe Montana and Roger Craig as well as heavy weight champion Evander Holyfield are examples of professional and world-class athletes who realize(d) the value of proper structural alignment and balance in their bodies. They have learned through their own experiences what research has shown; that through chiropractic care - one can demonstrate faster reaction time, better balance, improved coordination, increased muscular power; and when injured- accelerated recovery and regeneration.
The Competitive Edge.
Emphasis on athletic excellence continues to escalate in this country in terms of both dollars and extremes in personal sacrifice. Though the dangers of taking anabolic steroids have been widely publicized for years, the number of athletes who suffer serious health problems caused steroids continues to grow. Now, however, the athlete looking for the competitive edge need not look beyond the framework of his(her) own body. Increased public awareness is leading many to realize that a natural method is available in achieving performance enhancement. The method is Chiropractic!

For your particular problem of pain down the leg from the back--- I give my Staten Island Sciatic patients this information:
揝ciatica?
( Also Known As- neuritis, neuralgia, sciatic-radiculitis )
(pain down the leg, with or without back pain)
Sciatica can be caused by many different things. Big, BAD, catastrophic things like a tumor or a cancer can cause
Sciatica (only a proper exam by a licensed doctor, like your Doctor of Chiropractic, or your family Doctor of Medicine, can evaluate
your signs and symptoms, and perhaps refer for testing). Big, bad things like a Herniated Disc, sciatica, possible fracture or dislocation can cause Sciatica (again, best evaluated by your DC or MD, and perhaps referral). Bad things, like - Sprains, Strains, contusion, or Vertebral Subluxation Complex (all very efficiently diagnosed and treated by your Doctor Of Chiropractic. Sciatica can come from a motor vehicle accident, sport injury, slip, trip, fall, arthritis, lifting improperly, or even bad posture in standing, sitting or sleeping. All of these things often have a Lumbar (Low Back) Vertebral Subluxation involved. Sometimes we can wake up with 憇ciatica? .... sometimes a slip, trip, fall, heavy lift, or even a motor vehicle accident can cause a 憇ciatica? Frequently- the true c a u s e of the 憇ciatica? = pain in the lower back, buttock(s), thigh, calf and/or foot (even to toes); is a misalignment, a 慿ink?in the back- more properly termed a Vertebral Subluxation. 摂Sciatica敂 is only 1/2 a diagnosis .... what is causing the sciatica?
Vertebral Subluxation Complex (a.k.a. 憇ubluxation?
The vertebral subluxation complex is often the underlying cause of sciatica and many healthcare problems. A subluxation interferes with the proper functioning of the nervous system (the master system which controls and coordinates all function within the body) and may cause various other conditions, symptoms and problems.
This (subluxation) is a serious condition identified by its five parts:
Spinal Kinesiopathology:
This is fancy way of saying the bones of the spine have lost their normal motion and position. It restricts your ability to turn and bend. It sets in motion the other four components.
Neuropathophysiology:
Improper spinal function can choke, stretch, or irritate delicate nerve tissue. The resulting nerve system dysfunction can cause symptoms elsewhere in the body.
Myopathology:
Muscles supporting the spine can weaken, atrophy, or become tight and go into spasm. The resulting scar tissue changes muscle tone, requiring repeated spinal adjustments.
Histopathology:
A rise in temperature from an increase in blood and lymph supplies result in swelling and inflammation. Discs can bulge, herniate, tear, or degenerate. Other soft tissues may suffer permanent damage.
Pathophysiology:
The VSC contributes to OsteoArthritic degeneration. Bone spurs and other abnormal bony growths attempt to fuse malfunctioning spinal joints. This spinal decay, scar tissue, and long-term nerve dysfunction can cause other systems of the body to malfunction.
The Vertebral Subluxation Complex describes what happens when spinal bones lose their normal movement patterns and position.
Automobile accidents, improper lifting, improper posture, alcohol, emotional stress, chemical imbalances, and long periods of sitting can cause the Vertebral Subluxation Complex.
Vertebral Subluxation cannot be corrected through chemicals (medicine), stretching, yoga, vitamins or physical therapy alone. Subluxation- a neuro/skeletal/muscular- mechanical- problem requires a mechanical correction- - - a manipulation, best performed with the chiropractic adjustment. For good health- Treat the Cause, not just the Symptoms.

I have another information sheet that I give my Staten Island Chiropractic
Patients detailing how chiropractic works--- HANDS ON visits, not long distance
(ie: here are 30 pills, take one pill a day--- I will see you in 30 days!):
Why so many treatment visits ?,
Why so many different therapies ??
Many people do not come to the Doctor of Chiropractic first.
Many people take an over the counter medication (OTC) (covers up the pain,
does not treat the cause of the pain), see a medical doctor for a
prescription medication (covers up the pain, does not treat the cause of the
pain, stronger then OTC drugs, increased possibility of side effects and
complications), or just wait and hope the pain goes away.
Then, after the pain continues, FINALLY they go to the
Doctor of Chiropractic. Studies show that while Chiropractic is often the
last Doctor people will go see, they expect immediate results- i.e.; a couple
of weeks of treatments are expected to cure the problem. It is a paradox that
people WAIT to go to the Doctor of Chiropractic, but expect immediate results,
on conditions that have been building for months or years; yet when they go to
a medical doctor- they accept invasive surgeries and/ or a long treatment
protocol of physical therapy- weeks, often months.
Spinal pain, like many other conditions, often builds
for years and years until the pain becomes strong enough to send someone for
treatment. It is well known that heart conditions build for years and years,
yet in 40% of cases, the first pain someone feels with their heart,,,, is
the last pain someone feels with their heart (a fatal heart attack in
慳symptomatic?patients). Sad that they waited for pain to be a gauge of
health. Pain is the LAST thing that comes in a problem, and often the FIRST
symptom to go away. If there is a problem, isn抰 it better to treat BEFORE
the pain, or if pain has started, isn抰 it better to take care of the
problem, prevent future pain and progression of the condition?
Why so many treatment visits to start?, Well the
problem, the condition, has momentum on it抯 side. Irritation, inflammation
and damage has taken place and then the pain comes. Pain is the last thing
that comes in the condition, and Pain is the first thing that disappears
during treatment; but the underlying irritation, inflammation and damage has
to be repaired. Initial treatment schedules, depending upon the severity of
the complaint could be as often as twice per day, or once per day for two-
three weeks, followed by a gradual reduction in treatment visits. This is
similar to surgery! When a patient has an invasive surgery, often there is
followup rehab treatment of daily, then every other day, then weekly visits
for a prolonged period (i.e.; shoulders- up to a year of treatment AFTER
invasive surgery).
Chiropractic works with your body.
Chiropractic helps your body to heal itself. Chiropractic restores
Homeostasis, balance in the body. Chiropractic corrects the Vertebral
Subluxation Complex. You cannot be 慼ealthy?if you have a Subluxation.
You MAY feel it, with a pain, stiffness, or a 慿ink?in your neck/ back.
You may NOT even feel it- just as people often do not feel the cavity
growing in their tooth,,,, until it hits the nerve; or you may not feel it at
all, like people do not feel high blood pressure or diabetes until AFTER
damage has been done!! The vertebral subluxation complex can be the
underlying cause of many healthcare problems. A subluxation interferes with
the proper functioning of the nervous system (the master system which controls
and coordinates all function within the body) and may cause various
other conditions, symptoms and problems. This (Subluxation) is a serious
condition identified by its five parts: Spinal Kinesiopathology,
Neuropathophysiology, Myopathology,
Histopathology, Pathophysiology. Chiropractic corrects this 憇ilent?br>
condition, works WITH your body, and like other health approaches requires a
certain treatment regimen and a period of TIME.

I hope the above information gives you motivation to be evaluated by a
Doctor of Chiropractic.
I hope the above information helps explain why you may need a treatment
REGIMEN. People do not lift weights once in their life- and look like Arnold
Schwarenegger (spelling ! ? ), it took a long regimen of exercise to train his
muscles to look like that.
We do not brush our teeth once, and expect our teeth to be clean forevermore.
Your body- the muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons have developed habits---
maybe some good habits, good postures, good movement patterns;,,,,, maybe some
bad habits- bad postures, bad movement patterns- these will take time to
'break the habit'.
After the initial, often intense regimen, our body needs to practice good
spinal hygiene!- just as we see the dentist, the dental hygienist a couple/
few times a year (depending upon our particular case and needs), the spine
needs maintenance. Herewith- another information sheet utilized in Dr. Victor
Dolan Staten Island Chiropractic Office:
What ? ! , I have to brush my teeth!?,,, after EVERY meal ! ?
,,, For the REST of my life ! ? ! ... I don抰 want to. period. I
won抰. To heck with it ! If I get a hole (cavity), THEN I抣l take care
of it. Maybe I won抰 get any cavities anyway?.
It took the American Dental Association YEARS to educate
people that they should brush frequently to avoid dental disease. It has
taken YEARS to educate patients that visits to the Dentist for hygiene,
cleanings, flossing, coatings, etc. are necessary to PREVENT dental
problems. Some people still do not floss after every meal, some do not even
brush often enough (yyyuuukkkk), so some people still have severe dental
problems despite all the knowledge about PREVENTION and dental
health maintenance that is out there. Can you believe it ?? !!
Some people have the same problem with PREVENTATIVE Spinal
Health
that used to exist with preventative dental health. Some people come to the
Doctor of Chiropractic and say, ?..do not adjust me, just give me
therapy...? some people say,
?..What ? ! , I have to practice SPINAL HYGIENE !?!, (practice proper
postures, proper movement patterns, and see the Chiropractor periodically
!?!), Naahh, ... I don抰
want to. period. I won抰. To heck with it! When I get PAIN, then I抣l
take care of it.
( pain is often the LAST symptom to appear- whether a cavity or a heart
attack ! )
