@@CaringmedicalProlotherapy Does this medical facility do online second opinion on mri and xray review?

Same here side hit t bone on drivers side the balance stuff is horrible

This is me too. Started with car accident. 14 yeqrs ago. I have cervical instability and ribs probs. So thankful for dr hausser's videos. So hard going through the mainstream medical system to get answers.

I have v eds . Sternum catches and snaps all the time.. if it doesn't snap. It's extremely painful for days til it does. That's just a little one of the symptoms but relatable. ;).

@@oshunbleu6511 I'm doing so much better after 4 PRP/prolotherapy sessions. I would say I'm about 90 percent recovered. I'm even able to exercise now.

@@ItsmeJenagain that is fantastic!! I really hope there is some doctors with prolotherapy training near me. I am happy it worked for you and that your life is getting better all the time ;)

Are they helping at all?

I have full spine severe instability and scoliosis and Prolotherapy helped me! Along with Pilates.

Same 😔

Have you looked into facet joint syndrome?

Same problem 😢

Did you figure anything out?

Hi Odins Fire- Thank you for your kind words. Good question. Prolotherapy injections are basically the opposite of cortisone. Cortisone is basically used in hopes of providing short term relief from pain and inflammation, but it has long-term damaging effects on tissue, and part of the reason it cannot be performed more than certain number of times. So, it actually increases joint instability in the long-run. Prolotherapy stimulates the body to repair over the long-term. We have some other videos that discuss it in more detail if you want to do a deeper dive on the topic: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/puCehs6B353eqZs.html Wish you all the best in health!

Northeast Ohio recommendations as well!!

Great question - there could be a connection depending on the instability! It could be that there is instability in the T4, T5 and it is causing the rhomboid muscles to be stretched and pulled.

I have same problem+ trachycardia nausea..how are you now ??

We always recommend gettin proper testing such as a DMX and ultrasound if possible! These are the best ways to see instability. The thing with instability is that it is degenerative meaning if you don’t do anything about it, it will continue to get worse. We wish you all the best on your journey and if you find that you can travel, we’d love to see you!

There are three therapies you could try In Scotland. Just takes a google search. Prolotherapy, dry needling and PRP. If your chronic pain is already high these therapies won’t work. There are two types of inflammation 1. Chronic 2. Acute. The body only sends its healing mechanisms to acute pain but not to chronic pain like arthritis. These therapies aim to trigger an acute injury response that sends collagen rebuilding and scar tissue to the site of injury. But the scar tissue is inflexible, rigid and weak. It is like glue. You can easily re-injure this area. If you create an acute injury on top of chronic inflammation then it could trigger an inflammation multiplication that sets off the arthritis and exacerbates it. Then the body will not respond and the injury will worsen. This therapy is great for athletes that notice their injury at a certain threshold but aren’t affected by it in a static state. This therapy would help fortify their body at high outputs in their sport. The key is that at rest these athletes are pain free. If you live a sedentary life and your ribs are giving you chronic pain you need to find a way to get the pain under control or eliminate it. I got help from medication to get it under control. I have noticed that chronic inflammation and rib instability doesn’t respond to ice or ibuprofen. certain antidepressants target chronic pain and/or gaba regulating medication has helped me. Once the pain is under control you might consider trying these therapies. The thing is, if you try these therapies before your pain is reduced, it could cause an inflammation cascade where your chronic pain proliferates and multiplies. The body won’t help you heal in this case but actually make the situation worse. You could try dry needling it’s cheapest. It does the same thing as prolotherapy and prp. Prolotherapy is an injection of sugar water. An irritant. Dry needling acts to irritate the area through a series of micro punctures. Prp is a mixture of an irritant and platelets that are processed from a sample of your blood. There are growth factors in prp that aim to provide additional healing for extra cost. Dry needling is cheapest prp is most expensive. If you notice any improvement with dry needling then maybe prolotherapy or prp could provide an extra benefit, but at least you would know that your body is responding to this concept. Risks of the procedure are minimal. Whoever you find will likely use an ultrasound to guide the needle into the controverse ligaments and facet joints. There can be nerve damage and increased pain. It depends on how old injuries respond to being triggered. If you get too many of these injections excess collagen/scar tissue can actually make your pain worse. I sit and wait after my ribs are triggered. Just walking. No lifting no jogging no vibrations tugging and pulling. Once I am pain free I work on stabilizer muscle groups, posture and band work/body weight exercise/ knee pushups. Once I am pain free doing this I gradually increase difficulty. But I won’t ever be lifting weights again.

Same, I've had same exceot 10 years and chronic 24/7. It's awful nagging and disabling pain.

Look up Dr Berg for arthritis it may help.

Sorry to hear that you are experiencing this pain! Prolotherapy could be a great treatment option for you as ligaments may be loose - we would love to get you in for diagnostic testing and get a proper diagnosis!

@@CaringmedicalProlotherapy I had improved on the rib but back was still an issue. Just felt like it needed a good crack :) but the other day when I bent over my center console to get something I literally felt my rib give and the pain came back! Did my rib slip?

So sorry to hear that you are experiencing rib pain Carmen. We would love to help you get a proper diagnosis!

We do not, our office is located in sunny FL! We’d love to see you :)

Prolotherapy is a nonsurgical regenerative injection technique that introduces small amounts of an irritant solution to the site of painful and degenerated tendon insertions (entheses), joints, ligaments, and in adjacent joint spaces during several treatment sessions to promote growth of normal cells and tissues. PRP is a type of Prolotherapy that takes your blood, like going for a blood test, and re-introduces the concentrated blood platelets from your blood into areas of chronic joint and spine deterioration. In short, PRP is a type of prolotherapy but just for cases that need that extra push! Hope this helps!

We are so sorry to hear this, we had a patient a few years ago share his story (sounds similar). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8eYaK-qlciuiY0.htmlsi=DOzwhBWrR4PHMl2O After receiving Prolotherapy treatments his symptoms greatly improved. Prolotherapy could be a treatment option for you - please contact us directly, we would love to help you!

Thank you so much doctor🌸

Hi Gina, So sorry to hear about what you're going through! If you would potentially like our team to help you here, you're welcome to reach out to us directly to discuss your case in more detail. We wish you all the best in healing!

Hi @joshuaroberts5083 - we cannot diagnose without first doing a consult and exam, however it sounds like it would be beneficial to get things checked out before they get worse. We are accepting new patients and would love to help. You can contact our office directly at 239-308-4773 or email info@caringmedical.com

@@CaringmedicalProlotherapy Thanks for replying! I am actually in minnesota and you guys are in florida right? Should i fly down there? There is a prolotherapy injection place here in Minneapolis that I have went to so I might just go there and have Dr Thorson exam me. Anyway, I appreciate it! ALSO, could something like Lyme Disease mimic the symptoms I am having of costochondritus and thoracic pain? I have Lyme infection for a while now and have a lot of joint pain, so maybe that is the cause? -Josh

"...you know unless the rib is completely out of place"

After coming in for exams and a consult, Dr. Hauser can recommend weights to assist in curve correction. We do not recommend doing anything like that at home by yourself as you could further injury yourself.

@@CaringmedicalProlotherapy thanks , I didn't know that the use of weights to retrain the backs curve was somthing doctors did. My truck got flooded in the last hurricane, I don't think I can make it to you're office on my recumbent bicycle from npr FL 34652

I had chest pains come and go for months. I saw my cardiologist, and they did the works on me. My test were abnormal , so a CT of the heart was done. My CT was normal, but the CT scan picked up Bone Spurs on my thoracic. That explained the chest pains I was having. My pain radiated from my back to the front on my chest. I also have tailbone pain c-5 c-6 bulge disk. With all this going on back in 2013. I had a two level fusion, cervical. So, standing too long, sitting too long. Laying down on my back or on my side my back is always hurting, aching and very uncomfortable. I've just been tolerating my pain. My pcp did suggest trying injection on my back. But I feel like that would be just like a Band-Aid and not a cure. Once you have surgery anywhere on the spine, you're prone to have more in the future. 🙏🙏 for everyone going through back pain
