Question
My daughter fell down the stairs on her tailbone last weekend, and, of course, it continues to be painful.  About 15 years ago, the same thing happened to me, and I went to a chiropractor, who xrayed it, and since it wasn't broken but misaligned, popped it back into place.  It definitely helped, and didn't hurt any more after that.  Would you recommend that I take my 11-year old to a chiropractor?  Thanks for your help.

Dear AllExperts User:

Here is an update on the petition project I emailed you about previously.  A few changes were needed to correct and clarify the petition, requiring me to restart using a new one.  The means that everyone who signed needs to resign the new form which is located at http://www.petitiononline.com/ajb2/petition.html

There really seems to be a good deal of support for this initiative to clean up misinformation about chiropractic in the most widely used career sourcebook for students.

Please visit the site, review the new petition and add your support.  I also am asking everyone to contact as many friends and family members as possible to get the message out either by emailing them directly or passing a message on to distribution lists and discussion forums.  I am certain that health professionals, students and smart consumers would appreciate learning more about this subject and join us.  If enough attention is raised I am confident we can make a difference and get this fixed!

Thank you again for your support,
