Joint Pain FAQs

What Causes Joint Pain? 

Several factors may cause a person to experience joint pain. Some of the most common causes include an autoimmune deficiency, wear and tear, and trauma. Other causes of joint pain may include strains, sprains, dislocation, and fractures. 

Can a Chiropractor Help Relieve Arthritis Pain? 

Many patients with arthritis pain seek chiropractic care to alleviate the pain they experience in their joints. As joints continuously rub together, arthritis pain often worsens, resulting in chronic pain. A chiropractor can help relieve tension in the joints and help promote the body’s natural healing abilities, which can help with pain management and relief. 

How is Joint Pain Diagnosed?

A chiropractor or a medical professional will handle the diagnosis of your leg pain, pinpointing the root cause of the pain. Typically a physical examination is conducted, and diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays or an MRI, is ordered to help identify the cause of the leg pain. 

When Should I See a Chiropractor for My Joint Pain? 

Anytime you start experiencing joint pain, you should contact your chiropractor to schedule a check-up appointment. Seeing a chiropractor can help ensure your pain is not caused by another condition and can also help continue with proper treatment to increase flexibility and reduce the chances of causing more damage to an injured joint. 

Is Chiropractic Treatment Safe for Joint Pain? 

Seeing a licensed chiropractor for joint pain can provide you with an effective alternative treatment to traditional medicine and addictive medications. In addition, seeing a chiropractor for joint pain is very safe, as it is a non-addictive, non-invasive, surgical-free treatment, making it safer than many of the other traditional medical treatment options available for joint pain treatment.
