The "scientific reason" is because pain is complex. Why do some people have "double jointed" thumbs while other don't? Why do some people have one leg that's slightly shorter than the other while others don't? This is why it's so important to test for all possible sources that could mimic the symptoms (and there are at least a dozen.) If these tests don't reveal a problem then we can assume the herniated is the cause of pain, not the other way around.

How are you doing now ?

@@dingdong6005 I’m doing well. It originally happened in November. I pretty much avoided leg days completely until a month ago. I still never had an MRI, just couldn’t afford it. Iv always had very good technique so I’m a lot more conscious of my form now with even lighter weight, being meticulous. From the video of my injury which I had recorded I could tell I just lost tension in my core when I got to my sticking point. I likely exhaled & lost stability which is why I felt the shift in my back and pop. Iv gone back dead lifting with a hex bar. Not too often but just to test the waters. I’m still a bit to nervous using a barbell due to it requiring me to be in more of a forward leaning position to lift the weight. I was still active in the gym since November. I avoided any free weights for many months and stuck with machines due to them being very stable. I used to have pain bench pressing at the beginning in my lower back due to the compression against the bench but now I don’t have any problems with pain. I still do feel a bit of instability in my back though, especially when I lean forward. I’m wearing a weight lifting belt now when squatting even with warm ups. Don’t have them too tight if you use them, it’s needs to be tight but you still need room to breath and expand your belly into the belt as a brace so make sure you can always fit your thumb between your stomach and the belt. I’m back lifting heavy again now anyways. I regained all my strength pretty quickly but it was definitely a wake up call that I need to be more careful. I’m training over 10 years but all it takes is 1 brief moment of making a mistake to hurt you and Iv learned from that going forward. That has been the worst injury Iv had personally.

@@FlickSh0tt thanks man … I hope I can also get back to normal and being able to lift just small weights again . I hate injuries and it sucks .

@@dingdong6005 best of luck with it. Just take some time off from what you were doing but stay active. Movement is the best thing you can do for recovery and heat. Use heat packs often or hot water bottles. I did this a lot at the beginning. Heat draws blood into the area & so does actively moving. At the start you’ll be too sore so stick with heat and then as time goes on start incorporating small activities that keep that area working. Avoid cold packs completely. They’re good for immediate injuries to ease swelling but they constrict blood flow and will only prolong your recovery if you keep using them.

how are you now

Hey, take a look to Stuart McGill book: The Back Mechanic

How are you doing?

Hi Heather. The area I would first look into is the spine. Many times people with tailbone/hip pain will also be limited in spinal rotation towards the symptomatic side. There is typically also a limitation in spinal extension. After we clear the spine as the possible cause then I would look into the hip. The glutes can refer pain into the tailbone. You could try some self-myofascial release at the glutes to see if it helps. Here's a video: ruclips.net/video/6oNZg1Ll4r0/видео.html Finally, stretching isn't the solution nearly all people need. They really need proper strengthening. If a muscle is tight it's typically tight due to some weakness or instability in the joint or a nearby joint. I know that was a lot of information and it's nearly impossible for me to really help without seeing you. But I do hope that helps in some way. Good luck with everything, I hope you find a solution!

@@KaizenPhysicalTherapy thanks so much for the insight! It definitely points me in the right direction! I have definitely done a refresher on the musculoskeletal system doing all this research 🥴😆

@@heathertate4385 you're welcome. Good luck with everything.

Helps a lot tho, just had blood drawn and got worried until this video. Thank u so much

You are very welcome! Glad it helped!

Hi Frank. Osteoarthritis is normal. It does effect everyone differently, but rarely is the root cause of debilitating pain. Almost always (in my experience), shoulder pain is caused by an imbalance in the rotator cuff muscles. I would recommend you find a PT who specializes in your problem. They should be able to help. Good luck!

Thank you on your response

Great!!

Great!!

I’m sorry to hear that. I’d recommend finding a good physical therapist or massage therapist (depending on symptoms).

You are welcome! I’m glad it helped!

You're welcome!

Thanks for telling your story, Martin. I'm really happy to hear you're doing better. You could also consider finding a great physical therapist to speed up your recovery and give you the best possible chance of the problem not coming back again. Often times the area that hurts is compensating for a problem elsewhere in the body. I'd recommend finding someone who looks at the entire body.

@certainanchorshark Unfortunately, it's impossible for me to say without seeing the person standing in front of me. A diagnosis does not always = pain. They are not one and the same. That is why it's so important to have the full story. This requires looking at movement, using my hands to find what's tender or painful, and then some tests to see if symptoms improve. It takes a combination of objective data to know the entire story, not just MRI results. However, the good news is that your symptoms don't sound indicative of anything serious. But, even the muscle weakness could be due to multiple factors. I'd recommend you see a health professional who specializes in your problem who wants to help you avoid surgery. Many physical therapists can help. Good luck!

@certainanchorshark Nobody can say with 100% certainty that it will or won't heal. There is research showing they can heal, but every case is different. I would always recommend non invasive treatment first.

@certainanchorshark that is a valid question and one I’m not certain of. However, if the mechanism which lead to the injury in the first place is avoided I’d venture to say your question is irrelevant. In other words, it’s not the disc you should be worried about, it’s the faulty movements which caused the injury in the first place. That’s what you should be focusing your attention on fixing.

Martijn so the painkillers brought the pain down? I'm asking cuz a doctor just prescribed me gabatin and naproxen 500 m and he wants me to take it 3 times a day but I heard there's bad side effects so my question is do u get side effects and can it really help bring the pain down? Cuz I have bulging heirnated discs and I get spasms too so I'll take it if u think it helps I just wanna know how much does it help

This video may explain the cause. Test to see if balance is worse on one side versus the other.

Sure! It's called Essential Anatomy.

@@KaizenPhysicalTherapy Is it application available on the net?

@@sehbalisofaine It's an application you can download.

Happy to help!

Of course!

You are welcome! Good luck with everything.

Yes, it can. The head injury isn't necessarily what can cause the cramps, but the lack of balance can. If balance is poor the muscles in the hips and legs must work harder to keep that person upright. Leg cramps can be a sign that this is what's happening.

@@KaizenPhysicalTherapy ok thanks

May I see what you're referencing? Also, where are you getting your 1/5000 statistic? I'm certain that's not true, but would believe you if you gave some real evidence.

Oh my God why 😢 I got diagnosed with 3 2.5 mm herniated discs and mild canal stenosis last year August and today I don't feel the sciatica but comes back if I want to help load unload groceries plus I haven't done anything for 3 days just exercises and STILL feel something on my lower back left side like a knot that needs get popped back in I don't want to die early I'm just 29 😢

@@johnnyrodriguez276 it sounds like a good physical therapist could really help you. If pain is better with some activities and worse with others then you have a movement problem. A good physical therapist will diagnose what areas of the body need to be improved so the painful movements improve. Good luck, I sincerely hope you find the help you need.

@@KaizenPhysicalTherapy Do you think I will heal my 3 2.5 mm herniated discs or am I living with this pain for the rest of my life, I want to go back doing my daily activities without worrying about lingering pain since 2020 August had sciatica reaching my foot now I can keep it centralized on my lower back left side only I just wish and pray 🙏 it for all to go away

3 2.5 mm herniated discs and mild canal stenosis with facet diseases on two sides 😢

I'm glad you liked it!
