Drug-Free Pain Relief Through Chiropractic Medicine
I was in a car accident last year and suffered a back and neck injury, along
with a nasty bruise on my leg. I was sent by ambulance to the nearest hospital, and upon leaving, was given a prescription for pain medication and a “fare thee well.” When speaking to my nurse, I had specifically requested a prescription for a non-narcotic pain reliever, as I have concerns about becoming dependent on medicine, yet when I investigated the prescription I had been given, I was annoyed to learn that my request had been ignored, and I had been prescribed exactly what I had not wanted.
I was sore on that first day, but within the next few days, pain descended on me like the proverbial swarm of locusts. I am pretty physically fit and thought I could exercise the pain away, but the pain was too intense. I went to see a doctor and was told to take pills and it would get better, but this was as unsatisfactory to me then as it had been in the emergency room. After consulting with an attorney about compensation for my lost car and income, he insisted that I seek medical treatment of some sort and recommended a chiropractor.
