In this episode, Dr. Beau and his team discuss the importance of triage in musculoskeletal care and the decision-making process when determining whether a patient needs to see a specialist or undergo surgery. They share several case examples, including a high-level runner with a foot injury and a patient with a chronic shoulder dislocation. The team emphasizes the need for individualized care and the importance of considering the long-term implications for young athletes. They also highlight the role of primary care providers in ordering imaging and making treatment decisions. In this conversation, Dr. Beau discusses two patient cases. The first case is a 36-year-old male with chronic low back pain and disc bulges. Dr. Beau focuses on addressing the patient's pain and improving his movement patterns. The second case is a 47-year-old male who experienced increased headache and neck pain after receiving a Y-strap adjustment. Dr. Beau emphasizes the importance of a thorough examination and appropriate treatment.
