There are many causes of leg pains, whether as a direct injury to the leg itself, or the more common, a result from back injury. Discovered must be the origin of the leg pain in relation to your back, if it involves pinched nerves or you have muscle weakness also, for better treatment outcome:
Sciatica – when your lower back has experienced herniated discs, slipped discs, degenerated discs, bulging discs, which places pressure on the sciatic nerve, or pinches this nerve, which results in pain usually down the back of the leg into calf and foot.
Femoral nerve – a pinched femoral nerve would result in lower back and leg pain radiating down the side, front or inner portion of your thigh. If this nerve is involved, your knee reflex may be disturbed, resulting also in quadriceps muscle weakness.
Sacroiliac joint pain, facet joint syndrome, hip or groin injuries also can be contributors to leg pains.
If you experience only upper leg pain, including buttock pain, your Melville chiropractor will do other evaluative tests checking for the range and motion of your hips, lower back, and nerve stretch tests. He/she will also rule out any growths in your groin which would also result in leg pain.
Melville leg pain treatment chiropractic would consist of combinations of treatments for lower and mid-back pains which include:
Physical therapy – including exercises, muscle strengthening, heat and/or cold therapy - to list a few.
Chiropractic services – spinal manipulation, low force instrument adjusting, laser therapy - to list a few.
The primary goal is to strengthen the back and its muscles, decrease any inflammation you may have, and to achieve pain relief. A chiropractor's primary concern is in your being able to function, doing your usual activities and tasks, in a pain-free manner.
