Your San Jose Chiropractor Makes Sense of Back Pain Care

Back pain. Hospital. Not always a desired combination. Just ask any back pain sufferer and his or her family who have gone down this road. Let’s take a look at what happens when back pain flares and you, the San Jose back pain sufferer, and your loved one(s) just want it to end. You go to the hospital for help, and you just get more confused and keep hurting. McMurray Chiropractic Solutions has heard a lot of these stories! And we’re always ready to step in and make this San Jose back pain journey as short as possible and as understandable as possible. McMurray Chiropractic Solutions knows that what the back pain sufferer understands about back pain helps in the long run. And McMurray Chiropractic Solutions knows that just saying you have acute or chronic low back pain is too simplistic. (1) Yet, low back pain can be understood when it’s investigated and explained well like it is at McMurray Chiropractic Solutions.

Understanding is key. Hospitals are confounding places for back pain sufferers (2) and spine care centers aren’t much better (3). The hospital system of people and tests are not clearly related. (2) The spine center informational brochures are written in too complicated a manner to be of much help. (3) McMurray Chiropractic Solutions is your one-stop place for back pain information, care and relief. More on that later…

But let’s look more at hospital care for back pain. When back pain first sets in, it’s called “acute” low back pain. This phase lasts up to 4 to 6 weeks. It’s in this phase of back pain that the San Jose back pain sufferer seeks help. Going to the hospital when the pain gets really intense and has been for days seems like a natural next step. But what happens when you go to the hospital with low back pain? You’re in so much severe pain and with such disability that you have a hard time describing your back pain experience. Then, you have to talk and interact with so many different people – doctors, nurses, insurance personnel, healthcare workers – who want to help but just don’t seem to make you feel better.  You expect someone to just tell you why you hurt and what the underlying causes is which with back pain often isn’t immediately known. You want relief to return to life. Researchers recommend that the hospital develop an easy-to-understand guide for patients to understand the hospital team’s goals and routines and how to interact with all of these people. (2)
