A Mongrel I Own With Severe Back Injuries, Since Neutered, Is Now Bothering My 13 Year Old Female Rottweiler?

Monday, July 12th, 2010

She is not neutered, as she has always lived in the house – besides we got her from my brother in law 5 years ago when they migrated, I felt she was too old to be operated on – she also seems a bit exited but its my male who has been playing up – he balks non stop and even the neighbours have started to complain – is his behaviour a part of him not been able to do anything because of his back injury – he can walk fine but the back legs are weaker. Would like some advice on what to do. I have tried kenneling him but it did not work either.

Which Doctor Is Best For Back Injuries?

Monday, July 12th, 2010

I have a back injury related to an elevator accident. I have a herniated disc in L5 S1. It’s worker’s comp related & they did NOT approve epidural injections that my pain management doc suggested nor did they approve physical therapy.
I decided to get a lawyer involved and have the shots anyways despite pros/cons & since workers comp takes too long to approve anything. Its now been a year and nothings done. They gave me a choice of doctors (by the time they approve stuff, I will already have had the shots).
Which speciality is best (I chose relevant ones on their list) ? Keep in mind that I will already have had shots and that they “randomly” select THREE docs in that specialty so I cant go to my “own.”
(1) Orthopaedic Surgery
(2) Pain Management – Anesthesiology
(3) Pain Management – Pain Medicine
(4) Physical Medicine & Rehab
(5) Acupuncture
(6) Chiropractic – Orthopaedic
(7) Chiropractic – Sports Medicine
(8) Chiropractic – Rehab

Back Injury Problem ? ? ? ?

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

This might sound stupid but about 3 years ago I fell out of a window, which was quite high. Since then I had to stop most sports because I was worried it might trigger something in my back again. When I fell out the window, I couldnt move for about 5 minutes. Does anyone know what might of happened? I landed on my bottom but on the part where the tail bone is. :S Help? Also, my back is really curved now.

Sciatica Or Garden-variety Growing Pains?

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Hi! I’m 25+ weeks and for the past few days I’ve had this pain in my hips. I’m very stiff when I get up from a chair and then at times it’s a sharp pain. It’s on the sides of my hips/buttocks. I feel best when lying on the couch with my feet up.
I’m seeing my acupuncturist on Wednesday but in the meantime I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on whether this might be the sciatica my mom warned me about.
