Whether you like it or not, symptoms are feedback from your body that something in your lifestyle and/or environment are not congruent with optimal physiology.

The trick is for you and your providers to find your "triggers" and tackle them head on. Anything else is, frankly, a waste of time and

Spinal degeneration/ starts with intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. IVD degeneration is caused by a variety of factors, but especially chronic and poor spinal biomechanics.

A lumbar discectomy, where they go in and "clean out" the problematic piece of the disc, does not address any of the potential root causes. On top of that, the evidence shows it may make things worse in the long term, leading to more drugs and surgery.

Don't do that to yourself. Try drug free, non-surgical care, and you may not need anything else.

I've been telling patients for years, especially those that are desk bound for work, that one of the main reasons they should work in more frequent movement breaks throughout their day, and regularly, is to give their a break. The pumping motion of the legs helps return blood flow back to the heart so it does not have to work so hard to keep circulation going through a sedentary body. This will help prevent lower extremity swelling, varicose veins, and general aches and pains of the body. Get moving and stay moving for the of it!

Weakness is very often a choice, and it is one that is very detrimental to your long-term and functional abilities

Use barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, bands, or your own bodyweight. Use whatever you have available to you. Just start training immediately if you are not already doing it. You will be healthier for it in body and mind.

When I was a kid they used to say "TV rots your "

Today's kids, and their parents, need to be concerned about general screen time and its effect on growing brains. A new study published in JAMA Pediatrics showed there is a direct correlation between screen time in late childhood (ages 9-11 years old) and the development of depressive symptoms, potentially due to shorter and worse white matter organization during early adolescence (ages 11-13).

The main takeaway here seems to be concerned parents should emphasize good sleep hygiene and minimizing screen time. Tablets. Cell phones. TV. Laptops. Use them only as needed with young kids and adolescents. Spend more time playing outdoors and otherwise engaging the brain with stimuli like hardcopy books, music, and games/sports.

Fun fact - I can count on one hand the number of times my eight year old daughter has had an ear infection - 3x

She has never needed . The idea of putting tubes in her ears has never even entered the conversation. They usually resolved in a day or two.

Why?

A huge part of the reason she has recovered so quickly each time is because of care, of her upper cervical in particular.

More people need to know about this care option. Stop accepting surgery and drugs so casually and unnecessarily
