So many people suffer with back pain.  Stats show 80% of people suffer with low back pain, so it’s likely you know somebody suffering.  Unfortunately, most people ignore the pain or just treat the symptoms.  A common form of treatment is to get epidural steroid injections.

I warn patients about these on a weekly basis. Not sure how these have become the norm for 9 million/year to be given these. When you mask the symptoms and ignore the cause you will always be fighting a losing battle. Most ignore or are uninformed of the real side effects of steroids.   Before you choose this treatment, I was just reading this article about back pain and I’m sure you or somebody you know has been recommended an epidural for pain.  Read the article by clicking:  FDA Warns About Dangers of Epidural Steroid Injections for Back Pain.  Must Read Before Taking These Steroids.

As a local chiropractor, I find it very important to share this information.  It is important to educate yourself and

address the cause of back pain. As your Freehold NJ chiropractor, I have shown you the root cause of your problems, not masking the pain. By finding the underlying imbalance, we can help correct the problem.  It’s difficult because most people want a quick fix and there is not quick fix, just masking symptoms with these shots and drugs cause long term side effects while the true problem just gets worse.  The longer the problem exists, the more time it takes to fix with proper therapeutic chiropractic care.

Make sure to share this information with those you know as you can save them from rare but serious adverse events, including loss of vision, stroke, paralysis, and even death.
