CARE FOR MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN EARLY TO AVOID CHRONIC
DISEASES LATER
Musculoskeletal conditions like Burlington and Hamilton back
pain, neck pain and osteoarthritis of
the hip or knee, may lead to chronic disease like cardiovascular
disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease or obesity. For instance, those|Burlington and Hamilton
chiropractic patients who experience osteoarthritis seem
to have a higher risk of acquiring
cardiovascular disease. The newest study reports
that patients with musculoskeletal conditions have
a 17% higher risk of acquiring
a chronic disease. (1) What do the study’s authors recommend?
Address musculoskeletal diseases at the
beginning in their development. Preventing and taking care
of these musculoskeletal conditions early
may help prevent the development of chronic diseases later. Just what the connection is between musculoskeletal
conditions and chronic disease risk is not yet known. Your Burlington and Hamilton

TIP OF THE MONTH:
How Is Your Vitamin B12 Level?
Vitamin B12 keeps
the nerves and blood cells healthy. Mild B12 deficiency may be undetected.
More advanced B12 deficiency may produce anemia, fatigue,
pale skin, appetite drop, constipation, diarrhea, heart
palpitations, etc. One concerning condition linked
to B12 deficiency is subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord after
nitrous oxide anesthesia. (2) Recovering B12 status
can help. B12 may be received orally or via
injection. One injection study revealed that B12 eased
low back pain and disability and lowered patients’ consumption
of paracetamol for pain relief. (3) B12 deficiency may be avoided by
having meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and eggs or taking
B12 supplements. Talk with your Burlington and Hamilton chiropractor about the best approach for you toward healthy B12 status!
